Hillary Clinton says that her competitors are picking on her because she’s a woman. Hey, Hillary: If you can’t stand the heat, stay in the kitchen.
Rudolph Giuliani is getting ever closer to his final answer on abortion. He told a social-conservative gathering that as president he would veto any weakening of existing anti-abortion policies and sign any reasonable restriction on abortion. Pat Robertson endorsed him, reasoning that he would effectively prosecute the War on Terror and nominate conservative judges. Pro-lifers have their doubts. Legislation to ban or to authorize human cloning-the mass production of human embryos to be destroyed in research-may reach the next president’s desk. Giuliani has not said what he would do. Nor has he said that Roe v. Wade is bad law and that states should be allowed to set their own abortion policies. If he is unable to identify the most outrageous judicial usurpation of democratic authority in the last 40 years for what it is, how credible is his promise to appoint conservative judges? Giuliani still has time to get off the fence on Roe, but only a little.
