Elizabeth Scalia’s comment on yesterday’s Conservative Breast-Feeding:

When I first saw the headline from David Mills I thought he meant conservatives were in need of a calming suckle. For all I know, that’s actually a subtext! 🙂 But seriously…I can’t believe we’re STILL talking about this. Feed your kids, wherever. Get over it. Don’t walk up to a discreetly nursing mother, as someone once did to me, ask, “are you nursing your baby?” (Because that’s how discreet I was; she needed to ASK) and then suggest that the mother take the child to a restroom to do that. Any mother will be within her rights to say, as I did, “you go eat YOUR lunch in the bathroom.” People. Bah.
