This afternoon an e-mail came in from Rick Duncan, one of our pro-life heroes who is also a good friend. Rick is an ace professor of constitutional law at the University of Nebraska Law School.
Denny, I was on NPR today (with Sen. Patty Murray) talking about "Plan B," the morning after pill. Vital Signs Blog helped me prepare.
The NPR program Rick refers to here is Talk of the Town and in his arguments against the Morning After Pill, Rick had to take on not only Patty Murphy but also the NPR representatives on the program. Murphy, a Democrat from the state of Washington, is one of two Senators who strong-armed this FDA decision through. The other was Hillary Clinton.
But though the deck was stacked in favor of the Morning After Pill, Rick did a terrific job in defining when life begins and in presenting both the unreported dangers of the drug and the political implications of the FDA being coerced by left-wing politicians.
