Entry: Who's Infallible Here, Anyway? The Human Life Review Chooses Party Over Church Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/wars_and_rumors_of_war#5549 Post contents: After reading Hitchcock's essay, I must agree with Scott's take on it. The essay in the HLR by JH is a piss poor hit job on the Old Right, a second rate version of David Frum's equally dishonest hit job entitled Unpatriotic Conservatives published as the Iraq war was just underway. What "Kevin" doesn't understand is that for the most part, the politicians that JH's endorses are not seriously against abortion, and won't take steps that could be taken to return the issue of abortion back to the states and the people. In his opinion on upholding the partial birth abortion ban, Justice Clarence Thomas noted that he didn't address the issue of the power of Congress to regulate abortion because neither side raised that issue in the lower courts or before the Supreme Court. In other words, according to Thomas, the correct result regarding that law, as well as Roe v. Wade is that it is none of the business of the Federal government but should be left to the states and the people. Sent at: 2008 10 07
