The government should be required to fund abortion in cases such as rape or incest, argues President Obama's newly confirmed regulatory czar, Cass Sunstein.
"I have argued that the Constitution ... forbids government from refusing to pay the expenses of abortion in cases of rape or incest, at least if government pays for childbirth in such cases," Sunstein wrote in his 1993 book "The Partial Constitution."
In the book, obtained and reviewed by WND, Sunstein sets forth a radical new interpretation of the Constitution. The book contains a chapter entitled "It's the government's money" in which Sunstein strongly argues the government should be compelled to fund abortions for women victimized by rape or incest.
The Obama czar posits that funding only childbirth but not abortion "has the precise consequence of turning women into involuntary incubators."
Sunstein argues that refusing to fund abortion "would require poor women to be breeders," while co-opting women's bodies "in the service of third parties" referring to fetuses.
Sunstein wrote he has no problem with forcing taxpayers to fund abortions even if they morally object to their money being used for such a purpose.

This clown Sunstein is going to be a real P.I.T.A.! How ‘bout we skip 2010 and 2011 and go straight to 2012. Americans need some relief from this kind of radical crap.
Does this stupid a$$ not realize that taxpayer funded abortion has the "precise consequence" of turning taxpayers into accessories to murder?
Notre Dame University agrees. They gave Obama a medal. Maybe the Fighting Irish can do half time abortions at midfield. The alumni could have shut it down but they care more about the ball teams.
He sure is.
So here’s an Idea,,, Put all of the unwanted babies on ebay, and only allow an abortion if there are no bids. BTW, a photo of the mother and father must be provided so that prospective bidders can access information on the parents of the baby.
Bet what would happen is that mostly black kids would get aborted... It’s too bad, but I suspect that’s the way it would be.
God save us from these educated idiots. His Bill of Rights sounds like something a fifth grader would propose, yet, these are the people running the country.
show me a man's office and I'll show you the state of his mind...
Just Damn!
No, it's the tax payers' money.
The government's function is to protect us from enemies, foreign and domestic...such as yourself, Cass Sunstein.
“Sunstein argues that refusing to fund abortion “would require poor women to be breeders,” while co-opting women’s bodies “in the service of third parties” referring to fetuses.”
Where did Obama go to recruit his cabinet? Camarillo?
“I have argued that the Constitution ... forbids government from refusing to pay the expenses of abortion in cases of rape or incest, at least if government pays for childbirth in such cases,”
No wonder he’s Obama’s next choice for the Supreme Court.
Sounds like existing policy
The Left will finally come clean with his nomination to scotus, a repudiation of the Framers, Montesquieu, Locke, Aquinas and the rest of western civilization.
Sunstein is to the Constitution as Lucifer is to the Ten Commandments.
If the Gelding Old Party gets a testicle & spine implant before next year and start to retake the Majority in the House and/or Senate; what Hussein, the WH Czars, & the Lefties in Congress say & do will be irrelevant.
