I'd question the timing of Rozalyn Farmer Love's June 7 Magazine article, "My Choice," except I'm no longer surprised at The Post's efforts to move a liberal agenda forward. I thought last fall's article on Medical Students for Choice [Magazine, Nov. 23] made your points, but I guess you couldn't pass up the political opportunity to capitalize on the horrendous murder of Dr. George Tiller to build advocacy for the abortion point of view.

Giving Love's viewpoint such prominent Sunday billing provided a rallying point for the abortion cause from a third-year medical student who has yet to perform the procedure.

I would hope to see equal attention paid to others in the medical community who would be more affected by President Obama's plans to compel the application of medical practices by those who find them immoral. But I don't expect that this issue will be given equal attention by your paper.
