  • Human Life Review
    the HUMAN LIFE REVIEW SUMMER 2003 Featured in this issue: Ellen Wilson Fielding on Breeding Contempt Maria McFadden on The Story of Us Mary Ann Glendon on The Women ofRoe David Quinn on The Eurocrats Are Coming Lori Brannigan Kelly on Pro-Life on Campus Randy Boyagoda on Pro-Life, Pro-Choice, Pronouns Mary Meehan on Democrats for Life Also in this issue: Hadley Arkes • Maggie Gallagher • Patrick Buchanan Kathleen Parker • Wesley J. Smith • Kathryn Jean Lopez Published by: The Human Life Foundation, Inc. New York, New York Vol. XXIX No.3 $7.00 a copy ABOUT THIS ISSUE ... ... the disconnect between hard-wired abortion elites and what an old Apple Computer ad campaign memorably called "the rest of us" is reaching grotesque proportions. A July 2 story in the Washington Times, for example, reported that "fifty-one percent ofwomen surveyed by the Center for the Advancement ofWomen [headed up by former Planned Parenthood president Faye Wattleton] said the gov­ ernment should prohibit abortion or limit it to extreme cases, such as rape, incest, or life-threatening complications" (my emphasis). But that didn't stop the New York Times from branding David Pryor, the pro-life attorney general of Alabama and Bush federal court nominee, an "extremist," whose views "fall far outside the political and legal mainstream" (July 23). To New York Times editors, and Senate Democrats now filibustering Pryor's nomination, "mainstream" means partial-birth abortion. How did it come to this? Long-time contributor (and political indepen­ dent) Mary Meehan reminds us that pro-lifers once held real power in the Demo­ cratic Party; they are not, she suggests, totally without blame for its having become the party of abortion ("Democrats for Life," page 63).
