yes, it's been a long time.
a really long time.
and, yes, i understand that no one is probably reading this anymore. but i hope, if you are, you had a merry Christmas and happy new year.
what brings me back at the moment is this disturbing story that i came across via DMac at Classical Values. perhaps i'm just really dense and beneath the niceties of lawyering, but it is beyond me why what this young man did (and the girl is left out of it!) is a felony, yet abortion itself is not illegal. don't be mistaken--i think they both should be charged, yet it seems to point up the hypocrisy current in our cultural and legal climate and in the rhetoric of choice.
