re: #170 wrenchwench

Would you care to retract your assertion that you’ve seen things equally extreme and repellant on the pro-choice side?

I did not assert that, wrenchwench, unless I’ve overlooked a post. I quote:

I haven’t followed the Abortion Wars closely, but what I’ve seen of extremes on both sides strikes me as repellent. Akin meets that criterion with room to spare.

The assertion in the form stated by you (equally extreme and repellent) strikes me as reckless. Hopefully I’d have the intellectual honesty to back down from such a statement, but, hey, I have an ego.
