Shades Of Pelosi: Wexler Boosts Birth Control As Cost Cutter
FinkelBlog ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Looks like it wasn’t a gaffe, but official Dem policy . . .

When I saw the big headline in Drudge this morning about Nancy Pelosi defending money included in the stimulus package for birth control on the grounds it will reduce government costs for children’s health care and education, I figured it was an embarrassing mistake that would soon be corrected. But then Bob Wexler went on Hardball and said very much the same thing. Looks like the Dems have made it official policy to promote a reduction in the number of births as a cost-cutting measure .

The concept clearly gave Chris Matthews the creeps. And to his credit, he called Wexler on it.

ROBERT WEXLER: Let’s talk about that family planning. Family planning saves, if done correctly, an enormous sum of money down the road in the health care system.

It’s twue, it’s twue. Imagine the money we could have saved if Ted’s mom, Pelosi’s mom, Reid’s mom, Barney’s mom, etc had decided to practice birth control

I can dream, can’t I?

Wexler has the IQ of a box of nails.

He and Pelosi should share the leadership. There’s just too much excellence in Liberalism between them, for any of it to go wasted.

Pelosi/Wexler: Killing the unborn, it’s the core of our future economic policy.

They need to name a condum after Pelosi. They can put her picture on it, too.

The mass murder of American babies takes priority over all other considerations.

This is the most central policy of the democrat party.

Really, does a Jewish man really want to go down the road of which lives cost the country resources?

In essence which children cost the government the most? Would it be poor minority children?

Covert racism.

Human Life...the second most Sacred gift of all...means nothing to the Donkeys.

If you carry Pelosi’s, and her fellow travellers, philosophy to it's logical extreme...all persons deemed to be a burden to the ‘system’ will be exterminated, one way or another.

With worthless hyper-inflated dollars, taxed away from illegal aliens.

“What’s next? Tax credits for vascectomies?”

Let’s think about this for a second, they are right - $1000 for the snip snip vs 10’s of thousands on the dole. If we sterilize them they can’t reproduce, if they can’t reproduce they can’t commit crimes and vote democratic - with a bit of sarcasm.

I find this sick, only because if a republican every made any type of remark like this he/she would be all over the evening news getting a new a$$hole ripped in their backside.

"Family planning saves, if done correctly, an enormous sum of money down the road in the health care system."

Did anyone else feel a chill in the guts with that line?

That is the point he was trying to make. Google satire.

How about offering time off a sentence for a vasectomy?

I understand satire. My response represents what I see as looming reality.

Google logic.

Let’s see, push, promote and subsidise birth control of all types yet fail to close the borders to illegal immigration?
WTF, I be confused!
