- PHoney seems to think that we all save his every post. Maybe he
- thinks of them as lectures, and he thinks that we're taking notes.
- (This is not uncommon among grad students with few social skills
- - they're trained to lecture, but no one teaches them to hold
- conversations. They never learn. You can usually spot them as
- faculty, since they're the ones with the office located in an
- inconvenient location, talking to themselves as they eat their
- sack lunches.)
-
- I have no idea what he said about the woman who was fired from
- the clinic in his first post about Dr. Tiller. I remember that
- he claimed that she was pro-choice (of course, PHoney thinks
- that Rev. Holtsinger is pro-choice), and a former employee.
- I don't recall that he said she'd been fired. Maybe he did,
- but I don't remember it. (It's time for DODie to announce that
- I do, too, remember it.) It doesn't really matter - as you
- pointed out, the fact that she was fired reduces her credibility.
- The fact that she refers to fetuses as babies in her testimony
- makes me doubt that she's still pro-choice.
-
- I did notice that Petey Honey did not comment on the patient's
- words about Dr. Tiller. He's in a tight spot. If he claims
- that she doesn't know what she's talking about, he can't post
- any more rants about NancyJo Mann. If he addresses the problem
- that her fetus had (a heart that didn't develop), he's stuck
- admitting that he would force the woman to go through the
- ordeal she described with the end result of a dead baby. No,
- he'll change the subject (he picked that up fast), and start
- rambling about anencephalic infants.
-
- I really should try Dan's game. Some of today's stuff from
- Nyikos ought to qualify for a few points.
