‘Standing for Life, from Roe to Now’

I have a quick web pitch up as another anniversary of Roe approaches:

Down through the decades, we kept the faith when the conventional wisdom said, as it did for years and years, that the cause was lost.

We resisted every attempt after Republicans were defeated in elections to blame pro-lifers, most memorably in the atrocious GOP “autopsy” after Mitt Romney lost in 2012.

We insisted on originalist judges and blew the whistle when Republican presidents didn’t keep their eye on the ball (we strenuously opposed George W. Bush’s nomination of Harriet Miers).

We set out to encourage fellow pro-lifers, to arm them with the very best arguments and facts, to provide sound strategic advice, and to defend them from a constant stream of invective and lies.

I feel confident in saying that there’s not another major, non-specialty publication in America that has covered this issue as passionately, unstintingly, and intelligently as NR.
