- Where Does Anti-Choice Extremism Come From? | RHRealityCheck.org

- When the Supreme Court ruled on Roe v. Wade in 1973, a giant anti-choice movement did not spring, fully-armed, from the aching head of Jerry Falwell. Rather it took the better part of a decade to channel already-existing anger and zealotry in the direction of women's right to choose, a direction that proved fruitful in dividing the country and ultimately, provoking violence

- From the page: "As for his influence, Scarborough is the host of three full hours of televisionâ€"considerably more than Maddow. It should be in his interest, the public interest, and women's interest for him to come clean on his anti-choice connections, past and present, so there can be a vigorous and fair discussion of women's issues, including abortion-related ones, on his program. And hopefully if he ever hosts such a discussion, he will have the decency to stop himself from shouting down or marginalizing his female guests. Is that too much to ask?"

The official synopsis of the book is: "From a lecture delivered to suffragettes in Victorian England to a playdate on Manhattan's Upper West Side, this provocative work chronicles four generations of women, their aspirations, the limits imposed on them, and the sometimes startling choices they make in the world.""

- From the page: "Scarborough's ties, and even his votes, from a decade ago should not render him guilty by associationâ--particularly since he's said so little one way or another about the matter. But Scarborough should own up to these episodes from his past for the sake of journalistic transparency. The host has effectively softened his touch and, as Barrett reports, has adjusted his hard-line conservative image by doing some good works, like getting his hometown to name a street after Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. He could do the same on this issue. But instead, bloggers report that he remained relatively silent on the Tiller murder, even as the headlines screamed across the bottom of the screen. "

I would share time and ideas with him at conferences, refer patients for his services and exchange holiday gifts with his staff. He, like so many abortion providers, was a person of courage, integrity and commitment to women's reproductive rights."

- From the page: "Earlier this spring, conservatives went into paroxysms of outrage after a leaked report from the Department of Homeland Security warned of the possibility of right-wing violence. â€oeParalleling the current national climate, right-wing extremists during the 1990s exploited a variety of social issues and political themes to increase group visibility and recruit new members,” the report said. â€oeProminent among these themes were the militia movementâ€s opposition to gun-control efforts, criticism of free-trade agreements (particularly those with Mexico), and highlighting perceived government infringement on civil liberties as well as white supremacists†longstanding exploitation of social issues such as abortion, interracial crimes, and same-sex marriage.”"
