Washington – Shannen Coffin’s NRO article on Elena Kagan and abortion has Capitol Hill abuzz. Rep. Chris Smith (R., N.J.) tells us that the article shows an “outright fraud perpetuated on the American people.” “She manipulated the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists for total political purposes,” Smith says. “She’s totally pro-abortion, yes, but she’s also deceptive, and that’s a very bad combination.” The Senate GOP should “press this aggressively,” Smith says. “It’s a character issue.” Smith says he will share the Coffin piece with more of his colleagues today.
