The morning after pill (as you said) destroys no embryo, baby, life. It simply prevents it if possible. I don't think that the more moderate pro-life people are very much against the morning after pill, and certainly wouldn't be so against it if they new more about it.
I'm not to clear on what the invitro fertilization thing is that you are talking about. From what I'm gathering you are talking about when a couple chooses to have a "test tube" baby how they produce multiple culture that you choose from. I think this goes back to what I was saying earlier (and this is if my understanding of invitro fertilization is correct), the pro-life characters do not feel that something like that should have ever taken place. They perhaps feel that if a baby is in progress, then destroying this progress would be destroying life (and it is true at least for the chance of life).
So both sides are pretty stale mated here and it is unfair to call the veto anything but political as hippie said. Although I am sure Bush has some moral votes on it and does not agree with abortion, or using embryos, his choice to veto was purely strategic. To not veto this would cause a lot of damage to the right now and in the future.
Voters would shudder. (conservative voters lol) |
