What do you do when an organization announces it will stop funding the largest abortionist in the country one day and retreats with apologies the next?

Parents of young children are accustomed to the situation where a child passionately promises, “I will never do that again!” and ten minutes later you turn around to see your darling once again doing that very thing. But that’s not the proper analogy here.

No, the right analogy for this situation is the school bully.

What it’s all about—I am paraphrasing conventional mythology—is The Pill. Or all the other well-advertised, widely resorted-to modes and means of contraception. If you don’t see prevention of pregnancy as a vital human right, it’s no wonder you fear and oppose the White House strategy for making contraceptive devices free to all under ObamaCare.

Yes, I agree: nonsense, all of that. But you have to deal with realities, like them or not.

Today a woman has not conceived a child until she has decided not to abort it.
