Honey, I'm going to have to revoke your license to argue.

Note the sense of authority premised in this statement. Arrogance. In her heart, a proponent of "speech codes."

Note also the philosophically flawed, argument-impaired premise of her column: "You criticize me, some of it ad hominem, so I'm justified in my continued advocacy of exterminating unborn babies."

I emailed this response, which may be insufficiently rabid to merit her attention or response, to Ms. Morse:

>Honey, I'm going to have to revoke your license to argue.

Another revocation's winging its way to you, Ms. Morse. The philosphically flawed, argument-impaired premise of your column is essentially, "You criticize me, some of it nasty ad hominem, so I'm justified in my continued advocacy of exterminating unborn babies."

Mercifully, an ever-growing number of Americans take a less sanguine position than yours on the "my body, my right to kill any unborn life in it" Weltanschauung. That number includes a whole lot of women, 53% of whom stated in a recent Center for Gender Equity -- a decidedly pro-choice group -- poll that abortion should either be illegal or legal only in the case of rape or incest or to save a mother’s life. That must be a chilling thought for you, as it was for the Center for Gender Equity's Faye Wattleton, who actually did describe the poll results as "disturbing": A majority of women now take a moral stance synonymous with, or to the right of, George W. Bush and the Republican platform.

Pro-choicers, notably the distaff side, appear to be an ever-graying, ever-diminishing breed.
