This is emotive, but I just can’t help but be distressed at that kinda thing: a culture where a woman who kills her children isn’t swiftly and decisively dealt with? Just such a bad cultural message kinda moment.
Nevermind the cause celebre she became to the liberal feminists. Are people at NOW happy this morning at the news?
Not to be too overly dramatic, but it gives me the kinda chills I got the first time I read Julius Ceasar:
Blood and destruction shall be so in use
And dreadful objects so familiar
That mothers shall but smile when they behold
Their infants quarter’d with the hands of war
That’s just the first thing I thought of when I heard the news.
I’m sure Andy’s right–I’m just in a Derb pessimism mood. Getting over it…Leahy’s on in the Senate now…the Gonzales hunt has commenced. Go Specter! Don’t let this become a circus–you’re our man now.
Yes, that hurt.
