Henry Morgentaler seems confused
tagged abortion, Auschwitz, CBC, Dachau, Evan Solomon and Henry Morgentaler
Either that or this is the most tasteless statement of the year:
‘I’m like a newborn baby,’ Dr. Henry Morgentaler told the CBC’s Evan Solomon about surviving a recent stroke and heart operation. ‘I enjoy being alive.’
The irony wasn’t lost on Solomon, who then asked the Canadian abortion doctor ‘how does a guy who’s seen so much death (in Auschwitz and Dachau, where he was imprisoned as a youngster) fight for a cause which many people believe is a form of killing?’
‘I won’t deny there’s an inconsistency,’ Morgentaler answered. ‘Maybe I’ve deluded myself.’
Like a newborn, eh, good doctor? One that you didn’t manage to chop up into bits?
Delusion is, I suspect, just the tip of the iceberg.
