Once again, for anyone in the back who couldn’t hear: The Republican Party is not pro-life.
It was notable — maybe even once again instructive — that the president’s only mention of so-called reproductive health-care issues during Tuesday’s State of the Union address was about his promise to make in vitro fertilization more affordable. His administration is not oblivious to people’s moral concerns. (I know this for a fact.) It also is not ignorant of the scientific reality (this, too, I know): IVF is not as successful as it’s made out to be in his seemingly endless hyping of it (the rollout of the policy press conference in the White House was embarrassingly naïve and obnoxious).
