The Washington Post's Sally Quinn, like most of their writers, is an unregenerate liberal. And, like most liberals, she engages in rhetorical gymnastics to justify her moral (actually immoral) positions. So on abortion Quinn can say (with a straight face one presumes):
I have total respect for those who believe that life begins at conception. I do not. My belief is that when a fetus is viable, when it can survive on its own, then it is a human being. My beliefs are based, not on religion, but on my own sense of morality. I do not want others imposing their religious beliefs on me. (Read column here.)
Ah...logic.
