br> Re: Sean Higgins' When Liberals Could Oppose Abortion : /p> p>I enjoyed Sean Higgins's article on Dennis Kucinich, as excerpted in today's Washington Times . I noticed, however, that Mr. Higgins names Nat Hentoff as among the small and dwindling group of pro-life liberals on the scene today, and asserts that Hentoff and the others "aren't very vocal about" their pro-life position. As applied to Mr. Hentoff, I believe that statement is not correct. I think if Mr. Higgins looked further into this, he'd find that Hentoff, in his Washington Times op-ed columns, has written many thoughtful pro-life pieces. So, I'd encourage Mr. Higgins to reassess the "aren't very vocal" assertion as applied to Mr. Hentoff. (No argument about the statement's applicability to Kucinich, David Bonior, or Mark Shields.) Again, the article was otherwise very insightful and interesting, as is your website generally. br> -- Roger Pincus /p>Sean Higgins replies: The point I was trying to make was that pro-life liberals in general do not speak out on the subject of abortion. I didn't mean to suggest that Mr. Hentoff -- a journalist I have long admired -- is afraid to speak out on this matter. My article probably should have made this clearer. My apologies to Mr. Hentoff.
