Wendy McElroy surveys wrongful life/birth

Comments Off

Wendy McElroy surveys wrongful life/birth lawsuits. So far, the suits have been against doctors, but when will a disabled person sue their parents for allowing them to be born? It makes no sense, is completely irrational, but you know it will happen.

The three pillars of leadership

The three pillars of leadership against communism at the end of the 20th Century are all ailing. Pope John Paul II, Ronald Reagan, and–now–Margaret Thatcher are suffering the effects of age. To say that these three should be forever honored for their moral strength to challenge an evil empire while displaying clarity of […]

Alex (not Alec) “Stone Hyde” Baldwin is up to 369 votes at Send Them Packing. $369 should be plenty to ship that bad-acting blowhard off to France. But maybe we should hold out for enough to send him to the workers’ paradise of North Korea. I wonder if Alex likes the taste of […]

Can someone give Peggy Noonan a Pulitzer? She’s just so damn good. Her column on the Catholic sexual abuse scandals is full of heart-felt meaning, faith, and a yearning for good to come from it. You don’t have to be Catholic (I’m not, so I haven’t felt comfortable commenting on the story.) […]
