"Wow" is right. The depravity of mind that enables one to think of babies as punishment defies comprehension. I have a daughter. She is still a baby. That anyone could consider her or any other young child a punishment is astonishing, even shocking.
Before Roe v. Wade, was not the universal sentiment that human babies -- vulnerable, innocent persons who, if allowed to develop, will grow into sentient, self-sufficient persons -- are blessings? At the very least, were not those who thought of babies as punishments inflicted upon the sexually active too ashamed to say so publicly?
Yet after 35 years of living in a post-Roe world, an appalling sentiment that was once taboo has crossed the lips of a major candidate for President. This is the awesome power of the United States Supreme Court to shape culture, too often employed for evil ends.
Barack Obama has some 'splainin' to do. But don't expect a comprehensible reply from him. His reasoning is borne out of more than three decades of incomprehensible judicial activism.
