To the Editor:

I am a liberal Democrat who never watches Fox News. I watched the first Republican debate on Thursday night, and I must say that the questions asked by the Fox News anchors were truly exceptional.

The moderators were intelligent, and the questions asked were specific to the positions of the candidates. The moderators asked critical questions that in many cases prevented scripted responses. The responses they elicited were quite illuminating. Every debate from here on should be like this one. Kudos.

Note from KBJ: The moderators, especially Megyn Kelly, were vile. The questions were designed to embarrass the candidates. Imagine having one minute to respond to a scurrilous accusation.

To the Editor:

Katha Pollitt’s moral compass has cracked. Instead of cringing at undercover videos of Planned Parenthood doctors and medical staff grabbing the body parts of tiny babies to see which ones would be worthy of selling, she “cringed” at the apology video of Cecile Richards, the group’s president, after the first video came out, in which Ms. Richards was sorry for the tone of the doctors when discussing the crushing of babies.

It’s hard to defend something so heinous, but Ms. Pollitt gives it her finest effort, falling back to the new talking point that the stigma of abortion has to go.

Abortion will always have a stigma attached because its very nature is to end a life. One of the babies in the undercover video was still in the first trimester, yet his hands and legs were clearly just that. That child is a human being.

An abortion is not heart surgery; it’s not fixing a broken bone. It’s the taking of innocent life that betrays women and destroys authentic feminism. No taxpayer should be forced to pay for such behavior.

Until yesterday, I used Windows 7 Professional on my desktop computer. I hesitated to upgrade to Windows 10 because of some things that I read on the Internet, but I decided to go for it. The upgrade was free. So far, I'm pleased with the result. The desktop looks the same. I had a problem today with the printers, but I think I solved it by downloading a new driver from the HP website. Has anyone else out there upgraded to Windows 10? If so, how do you like it?

Addendum: Here is a column about the new operating system.
