Barbara Boxer once said that constitutional rights begin when you bring [...]

The Decline and Fall of the West. the baby’s little fingers were clasping and unclasping, and his little feet were kicking. Then the doctor stuck the scissors in the back of his head, and the baby’s arms jerked out, like a startle reaction, like a flinch, like a baby does when he thinks he is [...]

The Anchoress helps our Antique Media do the job they seemed determined not to do. Since members of the press can’t think of any questions about Gosnell, I figured I would do my part, and give them some starters and jumping-off points.
