In light of the current movement, among Democrats, to expand abortion right up to the moment of birth, this 2015 campaign to confer “personhood” on animals seems–oh, I don’t know. Sardonic, maybe?
Kill the babies, but save the dolphins.
Uh, could we, like, save both? Or would that be racist or something?
“If we don’t keep fighting the culture war, we can expect the demise of our values in America.”
David Limbaugh said this in 2005, when I interviewed him for Chalcedon.
This week, with a Republican minority reduced to impotence, the New York State Legislature, overwhelmingly Democrat, voted to allow abortions up to the moment of birth. They’d been pushing this for a decade. Until now, Republican opposition had always been enough to defeat the measure.
Unlike so many other “conservatives” whose positions make me wonder what they think they’re “conserving,” David Limbaugh’s conservatism is firmly and deeply rooted in his Christianity. In the 13 years since this interview, he hasn’t changed. I like him for that!
