I've been trying to post about Dr. Tiller's murder for the last 24 hours, and all that comes out is type - delete - type - delete - type - delete

I've had a hard time coming up with the right words, too. Lots of "type-delete-type-delete". Thank you for sharing this.

Tiller was such an emotional roller coaster for me. His name always caused my heart to clench up a little bit, because he was an Achilles' heel. He played as close to the wire as he could with laws and regulations, and every time they went after him I thought, "Oh no, now, this is it, somewhere he has forgotten to dot an i or cross a t and this will be the time they get him, and if they shut him down they will never stop until they hound out every doctor who performs late-term abortions, and then they'll redouble their efforts to take down every clinic with lawsuits and malicious prosecution

your words are more than adequate to the task at hand.. and I'd like to share them with folks I know who are in that vast middle pool leaning slightly to the right on this.. mostly because all they ever hear is what the media has to say.
