I told a friend at some length today that I am getting very sick of “Reformed” people (if we may call them by such an increasingly inappropriate name) who never bother to show the sort of passion against those fighting against them that they reserve for those fighting with them. Jeb Bush, for instance, has been personally involved in fighting the Schiavo case — by every means at his disposal — for years: years, I might add, before the average Reformed loudmouth ever heard Terri Schiavo’s name. A few days ago, NewsMax was hailing Jeb as the “unsung hero” of this whole thing.

Letters we get letters (and indeed, one reason for starting this blog is to give outlet to some of the more interesting ones, items which would not really “fit” on the Vanguard site). Here, I respond to several common assertions regarding the Schiavo case which simply are not true or make no sense. My position is that we must blame the guilty — not the innocent — if we are to really make a difference after this case is (at this point, inevitably) over.
