The Corner on National Review Online

Two little nuggets lifted from the National Review.

ARQUETTE’S NARROW MISS [KJL]
She wasn’t at the march yesterday (unless I missed her), but Andrew Breitbart and Mark Ebner have a similar story in their book Hollywood Interrupted. In the October 1985 issue of Playboy, actress Rosanna Arquette answered a question about whether or not she had ever had an abortion. She replied: “Well, as a matter of fact, yes. And my mother went to have an abortion when she was pregnant with me. I mean, she was on her way, and then the nurse told her to go out through the back door because the place got raided and the doctor got arrested because it was illegal….”

MAD MAX [KJL ]
There were a good number of “Say What” moments at the March this weekend. Some of the most telling were at the pre-rally the night before, filled with music and ranting aimed at modern-day bra-burner wannabe college students and their nostalgic feminist mothers. One of the most bizarre though, came from Maxine Waters. After sending a civil message to the president (George W Bush, go to hell! And while you’re at it, we want you to take Ashcroft with you. And don’t forget Rumsfeld. And please carry along Condi Rice.”), Waters told the rallied, “I have to march because my mother could not have an abortion.”
