So the 50% of Texans who pay Federal income tax should stop paying immediately.

If you read down to about half way, you will find out it’s political thuggery...

The problem in Texas is being caused by lawmakers’ desire to prevent STATE funds from going to Planned Parenthood.

>> federal regulations requiring that women have a choice

In other words, legal killing.

The solution is simple. Offer these “poor women” on public assistence a one way bus ticket to Chicago, Illinois or Oakland California or Mexico. Have them take their families along. Take them off the welfare rolls and move along. Shiela Jackson Lee will lose most of her recipients.

The 0bama regime’s relentless promotion of abortion is essential to the ‘population control’ required under the United Nation’s “Agenda 21”. Make no mistake, that’s what this regime’s fervor is all about.

This is only one of inumerable examples of the following pattern:

1. Citizens of state are taxed by fedgov.

2. Fedgov offers the state or citizens money, but only if they behave in the federally approved manner.

3. State or citizens refuse. Funds withheld.

SOLUTION: Don't send $ to fedgov in the first place. (Yes, laws need to change.)

Let me know when they stop funding illegal aliens and UNFPA.

12 March 2009
U.S. Resumption of UNFPA Funding to Boost Women’s Health and Rights

UNITED NATIONS, New York —Yesterday’s action by President Barack Obama to pave the way for the release of United States funding for UNFPA, the United Nations Population Fund, reminds the world of his commitment to women’s health, rights and equality, according to UNFPA Executive Director Thoraya Ahmed Obaid.

“This is a great day for women, girls and their families around the world,” said Ms. Obaid. “We warmly applaud this action by President Obama, which underlines his support to the protection of the lives and human dignity of women and girls in the poorest countries.”

President Obama yesterday signed legislation containing a $50 million contribution to UNFPA. This puts in motion the restoration of U.S. funding for UNFPA, which had been suspended since 2002.

Sebelius is, of course, quite mad. We have to get her out of there now.

This is exactly the sort of tit for tat a true totalitarian gets involved in.

Obama hates Texas, and he’s always messing with Texas. Obama hates Catholics, and he’s messing with Catholics..

He makes me feel soooooo special.

Deduct the $40 million from the money Texas sends to the Feds.

The federal government will stop funding a Texas health program that serves 130,000 low-income women because of a state law that bars abortion-affiliated clinics from getting public money, a top U.S. health official said Friday.

This is how the Democrats care about poor women. Texas should use some of its fat revenue checks from the latest spike in oil prices to fund medical care for the indigent, both men and women. Hopefully, they would do a better job than the money-grubbing baby-murderers at Planned Parenthood.

The title and first part of the article is sooo misleading.

The fed gives the money to the STATE. The state spends the money as they see fit. Not the way Sebellius and Obama see fit.

So they will stop giving the state that money. Because Texas doesn’t want abortions done through planned parenthood...

Good. Now shut down all those clinics, and stop funding the fed.

From the article:
“the Women's Health Program provides cancer screenings, family planning and other women's health services.”

What exactly does this $40,000,000 “program” really offer those 130,000 women in Texas at the bargain price of $307 each?

It sounds like it might be just another NGO referral agency.
Are the cancer screenings merely a pamphlet on self performed breast exams?
Is family planning a brochure explaining various methods of contraceptives, and a list of local OB/GYNs ?
What, exactly, is included in “other women's health services”?
Are they merely copied lists of social service agency and health clinics contact information?
