If you aren't creeped out by the No Birth Control Left Behind rhetoric of the White House and Planned Parenthood, you aren't listening closely enough. The anesthetic of progressive benevolence always dulls the senses. Wake up.
When a bunch of wealthy white women and elite Washington bureaucrats defend the trampling of religious liberties in the name of "increased access" to "reproductive services" for "poor" women, the ghost of Margaret Sanger is cackling.
As she wrote in her autobiography, Sanger founded Planned Parenthood in 1916 "to stop the multiplication of the unfit." This, she boasted, would be "the most important and greatest step towards race betterment." While she oversaw the mass murder of black babies, Sanger cynically recruited minority activists to front her death racket. She conspired with eugenics financier and businessman Clarence Gamble to "hire three or four colored ministers, preferably with social-service backgrounds, and with engaging personalities" to sell their genocidal policies as community health and welfare services.
Outright murder wouldn't sell. But wrapping it under the egalitarian cloak of "women's health" -- and adorning it with the moral authority of black churches -- would. Sanger and Gamble called their deadly campaign "The Negro Project."
In other writings, historian Mike Perry found, Sanger attacked programs that provided "medical and nursing facilities to slum mothers" because they "facilitate the function of maternity" when "the absolute necessity is to discourage it." In an essay included in her writing collection held by the Library of Congress, Sanger urged her abortion clinic colleagues to "breed a race of thoroughbreds." Nationwide "birth control bureaus" would propagate the proper "science of breeding" to stop impoverished, non-white women from "breeding like weeds."
Speaking with CBS veteran journalist Mike Wallace in 1957, long after her racist views had supposedly mellowed, Sanger again revealed her true colors: "I think the greatest sin in the world is bringing children into the world -- that have disease from their parents, that have no chance in the world to be a human being practically. Delinquents, prisoners, all sorts of things just marked when they're born. That to me is the greatest sin -- that people can -- can commit."
Sanger also elaborated on her anti-Catholic animus, telling one of Wallace's reporters that New York Catholics had no right to protest the use of their tax dollars for birth city birth-control programs: "(I)t's not only wrong, it should be made illegal for any religious group to prohibit dissemination of birth control -- even among its own members." When Wallace pressed her ("In other words, you would like to see the government legislate religious beliefs in a certain sense?"), Sanger laughed nervously and disavowed the remarks.
Fast forward: Five decades and 16 million aborted black babies later, Planned Parenthood's insidious agenda has migrated from inner-city "birth control bureaus" to public school-based health clinics to the White House -- forcibly funded with taxpayer dollars just as Sanger championed.
Several undercover stings by Live Action, pro-life documentarians, have exposed Planned Parenthood staff accepting donations over the years from callers posing as eugenics cheerleaders who wanted to earmark their contributions for the cause of aborting minority babies. "We can definitely designate it for an African-American," a Tulsa, Okla., Planned Parenthood employee eagerly promised.
What has cheap, easy and unmonitored "choice" for poor women in inner cities wrought? Nightmares like the Philadelphia Horror, where serial baby-killer Dr. Kermit Gosnell and his abortion clinic death squad oversaw the systematic execution of hundreds of healthy, living, breathing, squirming, viable black and Hispanic babies over 40 decades -- along with several minority mothers who may have lost their lives in his grimy birth control bureau.
City and state authorities looked the other way while jars of baby parts and reports of botched abortions and infanticides piled up. Beltway Democrats who now bray about their concern for "women's health" were silent about the Gosnell massacre and countless others like it in America's ghettos. Why?
The Obama administration is crawling with the modern-day heirs of the eugenics movement, from Planned Parenthood golden girl Kathleen Sebelius at the Department of Health and Human Services to the president's prestigious science czar John Holdren -- an outspoken proponent of forced abortions and mass sterilizations and a self-proclaimed protege of eugenics guru Harrison Brown, whom he credits with inspiring him to become a scientist.
Brown envisioned a government regime in which the "number of abortions and artificial inseminations permitted in a given year would be determined completely by the difference between the number of deaths and the number of births in the year previous." He urged readers to "reconcile ourselves to the fact that artificial means must be applied to limit birth rates." He likened the global population to a "pulsating mass of maggots."
Listen carefully as this White House dresses its Obamacare abortion mandate in the white lab coat of "reproductive services" for all. The language of "access to birth control" is the duplicitous code of Sanger's ideological grim reapers.
THIS IS NOT ABOUT WOMEN! It is about Leftism and the complete control of the public by the Government. And the daily beatdowns will continue until morale improves.
Exactly
Indeed it is! Right on Michele.
Is seems ironically fitting, that the “unfit” overwhelmingly vote for those who seek to minimize the number of the “unfit”.
Thank you Michelle.
Say what?
They're still slaves on the plantation - they just don't know it. Welfare/big government is the Master today.
What’s stopping them?
Darth Vader Ginsberg stated that she thought abortion would only apply to certain people. Who could she have been referring to? The unfit perhaps?
All women have access to birth control now. And guess what - so does the OTHER party in every conception.
Why should we “the taxpayer”, and any/or Christian church, be required to help them MURDER their babies!? Why should any taxpayers or any Christian church violate their conscience by having to provide birth control if they believe it is wrong? Why don’t those women exert some self control, or pay for their birth control themselves? That thinking makes my blood boil!
Old Margaret, like all liberals/progressives, just knew she was smarter than everyone else.
Well, I know God does not want us to permit abortion, the murder of the innocent.
I am a Catholic, and my church has policies about the use of contraception, but those policies do not include preventing women of other faiths from using contraceptives.
I don’t know of any conservatives who are telling people they can’t use contraceptives. Do you consider abortion an acceptable form of birth control?

Do you know any conservatives who are saying taxpayers should be forced to pay for it or that religious organizations who have moral objections should be forced, at the point of a Government gun by the way, to pay for it?

Well if she's determined to kill her baby and live with the consequences then the answer should be: Okay 'honey', then pay for it out of your own pocket.
There's evil people who will do evil things and nobody can stop them. But I shouldn't be forced to help them in their deed. And that's what is happening. The gubmint is forcing people to aid and abet criminality or immorality through tax money.
Recall after Katrina when FEMA handed out those $2000 'credit cards' and it was found many of the 'needy' bought fancy top-notch handguns. Well how many of those 'free guns' were used to commit a crime or kill someone. A good percentage I'd wager. So again by gubmint actions I was aiding and abetting in some crime through use of my tax dollars.
The whole welfare system needs to be scrapped and started over with VERY limited benefits and for a VERY limited time. Now we're even paying for FREE cell phones for the 'poor'. That's insane!
