Nat Hentoff, one of the clearest thinkers on the left, pens one of the best articles on the Terri Schiavo situation. A must read.

I am really impressed with this guy's articles, Nick. Thanks for posting them and thanks for the ping.

"Nat Hentoff, one of the clearest thinkers on the left, pens one of the best articles on the Terri Schiavo situation. A must read."

I've always admired Nat Hentoff's writing, even when I disagree with him.

In this case I don't. Bravo, Mr. Hentoff!

He's a consistent defender of the right to life.

I'd take Henthoff over the entire potemkin NRLC anyday.

This, I believe, is one of the main reasons the ACLU and liberals are (as usual) on the wrong side here. (Aside from their general love affair with death.) They side with oligarchy - rule by judicial fiat - rather than with elected legislators, or even the will of the people. For all the leftists' love of "the people". they only like people they can use.

[It's interesting to note that leftists' platforms have no internal consistency. They condemn the unborn to death, want to kill the helpless, but champion the rights of condemned murderers to live out their natural lives....]

Hentoff, if he lives long enough, may become a conservative. Isn't he against abortion?

Wow. Why is he one of the only normal lefties?
