I might not have read it save for the attention here on the Corner this morning. I’ll say it again: I love the honesty of legal-abortion-supporting liberal feminists. It’s a “craven spectacle” when “female candidates like Fiorina us[e] their womanhood to bolster their anti-choice credentials,” but a candidate who uses her womanhood as a pro-choice bludgeon, as if abortion were at the essence of being a woman rather than a perversion of it, is somehow everywoman’s hero? You’d think feminists would be proud, at least in some odd way, to see women of all stripes in politics. But think again. Or keep reading Jacoby and Hirshman and Erbe and the rest.
