Even a stopped clock is right twice a day, but the media . . .
The ODT version of The Denver Post has an interesting front page. There are only two items above the fold. On the left side of the page is a touching photo of a little girl looking plaintively at the casket containing the remains of her friend - a four year old girl who had been killed by her mother last week*. On the right side of the page is the banner headline "'Partial Birth' Ban Approved".
So why is it that the when a woman kills the child she conceived roughly 50 months ago it's a tragedy, but when a woman kills a child she's conceived, say, 37 weeks ago, it's so normative that any effort to stop it is mocked and belittled?
*The deranged woman also killed her son. She is in need of many prayers.
