Good Citizenship And Defending Democracy

One Day, A Pretty, Fresh-faced Young Lady - Intelligent And Sincerely Concerned - Asked Me If Abortion Wasn't Preferable To Making A Young, Unmarried Girl Have A Baby She Didn't Want And Which Would, Therefore, Grow Up Unloved And Probably Turn Out To Be A Criminal. I Gave An Answer Which Apparently She Hadn't Considered. I Told Her There Were Literally Millions Of People In This Country Who Wanted But Could Not Have Children And Who Waited Eagerly, Sometimes For Years, To Adopt The Baby She Had Described.

We Cannot Diminish The Value Of One Category Of Human Life -- The Unborn -- Without Diminishing The Value Of All Human Life . . . There Is No Cause More Important.

The Nine Most Terrifying Words In The English Language Are "i'm From The Government, And I'm Here To Help."

I Hope You're All Republicans.

Democracy Is Not A Fragile Flower; Still It Needs Cultivating.
