Are they still considering breastfeeding as a lifestyle choice and not a
health one?

Editorial
About Breast-Feeding ... 
Published: July 2, 2006
If you want to start an argument, mention breast-feeding. A two-year
federally sponsored campaign caused a rumpus when it compared a mother
who fails to breast-feed with a pregnant woman who rides a bucking
mechanical bull at a local tavern, or, in one official's formulation,
with a woman who smokes while carrying a child. Recently, a Times
article on the campaign incited a new debate that kept the report in the
paper's most-e-mailed list for days. While we hesitate to stir things up
again, it seems as if this is one issue where the middle ground makes
the most sense.
