Notes From Off Center: Can a Newborn Punish You?

    You are right, Drew. This sort of critisism is not reasonable. Unfortunitly, political rehetoric is not a discourse of reason, and using this phrase was probably a mistake. Nonetheless, I read two different Washington Post articles that could have highlighted it, and neither did. Robert Novak's op ed simply states that Barack quickly explained why "I am pro-choice".

    It looks like his remark is drawing only fire from conservatives. Big deal. We already know where they stand.

    And, right or wrong, he won't use this phrase again. In a week no one will remember it.
