Why? Because they value life. Except those lives far far away; or lives on death row; or lives of those caught in the drug war. They value unborn life, but after the kiddies are born we can later send them to mediocre schools, or lousy churches or feed them bad food. 
However we cannot blame politicians because they 'are sinners and aren't we all'. They have all the bases covered. They are constructionists busily erecting sand castles.

 It seems politicians have little trouble with sending hundreds
of solders to their deaths irrespective of the desires
of those solders and for no demonstrable benefit (see
Iraq) and yet there's terrible trouble with letting a
few astronauts take the risks they would desire to
take. What's up with that?
