re: #591 Spenser (with an S)

Both of these writers seem concerned about ensuring that the adulation that Palin received for carrying Trig to term does not result in people developing romantic notions about what such a decision entails or in giving strength to efforts to limit access to abortion.

It’s noteworthy that neither of the writers cited here is obviously associated w/ the political left. The first is, apparently, an economic libertarian who does not want to expand the size of the population dependent on public funds. The other has a similar concern, but seems less concerned about the tax burden than about the difficulty of providing for such individuals. They are similar perspectives, but the latter seems concerned w/ the welfare o affected parent and children whereas the other seems primarily concerned about his pocketbook.
