One way to create a little cognitive dissonance among the right is to tie this with the issue of abortion. If the right truly cares about reducing abortion (and given the surge in abortions under Bush, I don't think the right does care), the conservatives would be all about providing health insurance for children. I wonder how many abortions occur because the prospective mother feels she simply can't afford to have a child. No health insurance for children, I would think, has a real effect on these women. But, as George Carlin once said, the right only cares about you when you're unborn; once you're born, "you're fucked."
