Anti-Abortionist Stirs Strong Reactions

Which part of your story on Susan Carpenter McMillan was the April Fool joke? That this strident, supercilious elitist, who would deny abortion to the victims of rape and incest, herself had an abortion for the sake of her college career?

That your reporter and editors accepted that this sleek hypocrite, who has spent 10 years prying piously into the sex lives of other women, “declined . . . to discuss” her reasons or her premarital affair?

Or that this breathtaking preacher of doublethink feels it’s unnecessary to resign, or that she can ever function effectively again as an anti-choice advocate?
