Chicago NPR station issues bizarre plea: 'Go make babies today
American Thinker ^ | 01/30/2013 | Thomas Lifson

Is the pro-abortion left beginning to have second thoughts? Could that be the impulse behind a campaign being conducted by Chicago NPR affiliate WBEZ?  Anne Sorock of Legal Insurrection highlights the curious appearance of this Facebook-based ad:

One of the principal features of life in the richest countries is the collapse of natality. Simply put, when people get rich, they tend to focus on themselves, and lose interest in having babies, which are expensive, and require a focus on something other than personal pleasure. The ready availability of contraception and abortion certainly keeps birthrates down, and the rising numbers of people

But.. Ms Sorock, the women aren’t choosing to have babies.
Are they?
And you, Ms Sorock, wouldn’t want to -how did Obama put it- punish them with babies wold you?

Oh the irony is just delicious here.
I doubt Ms Sorock would understand it.

The Leftists read the statistics, too. It’s a simple numbers game.

Leftists have anywhere from 0 to 2 children per family whereas Conservatives have 2 to 4.

Run that over time and Leftists quickly reduce themselves to irrelevance. But by their nature they worship death and destruction so this is too little too late.

Two questions to keep in mind:

1) Even with conservatives having more children than liberals, will conservative kids grow up to be conservative voters?

2) Will new immigrants be more liberal or conservative?

The answer to the above two questions will have a direct bearing on the future of our country.

Two questions to keep in mind before we celebrate:

2) Will new immigrants be more liberal or conservative?

In NPR-speak she is saying that only the ill-educated, incurious conservative Christian Republicans are procreating, and likely won’t favor NPR broadcasts. And we couldn’t have that now, could we?

That’s why liberals want control of the schools —so they can indoctrinate the children of conservative and christian parents to “the dark side” —never doubt that....

Didn't God command man to "be fruitful, multiply, and subdue the Earth"?

The left intentionally has taken over the education system.
You have to understand that if you’re conservative - you’re sending your kids to be raised and indoctrinated in the leftist worldview.

Fortunately, the homeschooling movement is growing. Fast enough? Dunno. But, evangelical, homeschooling families tend to be BIG. 5-10 kids. And those kids get a get a hardcore “armoring up” and understand the attacks of the left. They have an inverse “retention rate” of the conservative kids that are public educated. Instead of losing 90% of them, we “keep” 90% of them.

Paging Sandra Fluke! Paging Sandra Fluke! Sandra,, go tell this station to keep their hands/ears/eyes out of your bedroom! Go Sandra Go!

Or perhaps the abortion biz in Chicago is taking a hit and they need NPRs help to drum up some customers.

I know.
It’s just hysterical that she’s -in Obama’s terms- trying to “punish” her fellow liberals with children they don’t want and would abort at earliest “convenience.”
I can almost see her wild eyed and freaking out.
Perhaps her biological clock is ringing and she sees it as doom calling, and she doesn’t want to go down in flames alone?
Who knows.

It’s just ironic in a way considering the left and their religion of abortion as a convenience.

But God also commended also the spreading of the Gospel at the end of the Gospels.

1) Unfortunately, the majority is about to go liberal. It might be a parents fault as well.

2) Asians, East Europeans, Russians are ultra conservative but there are a lot of red tape for them to make it here. Africans, Mexicans are after liberal cause. Arabs aren’t liberal but they are a fellow travellers for them and won’t support conservative agenda ever.

My four kids are all being homeschooled. One has started college on a scholarship, the next one is ready to start in the fall, likely with a full ride. They are both firmly grounded with a classical Christian education, and know how to do critical thinking.

We're fighting the good fight. Many people don't realize that homeschooling is one of the most subversive things you can do.

She want women to make babies so they can abort them. Planned parenthood needs funding.

So?
My point was that God commanded ALL of mankind to reproduce. -- Besides, the command to spread the gospels was given to the Christians, not mankind-in-general... otherwise there would be no need to "go [...] and teach all nations" because in order to teach one must know, and if all knew then there would be no nations to teach.
