Daily Insults...to our intelligence: January 2009

Nancy Pelosi: Abortions Will Stimulate The Economy

Well, at least we're getting it out on the table now; the Democrats agenda for America.

We may think people were our greatest national resource. But Democrats know better, you see. Less people will stimulate the economy, because less people "will reduce costs to the state".

And, what better way to make sure there are less people, than to kill more of the people who are already conceived?

From Ms. Underestimated:

STEPHANOPOULOS: Hundreds of millions of dollars to expand family planning services. How is that stimulus?

PELOSI: Well, the family planning services reduce cost. They reduce cost. The states are in terrible fiscal budget crises now and part of what we do for children’s health, education and some of those elements are to help the states meet their financial needs. One of those - one of the initiatives you mentioned, the contraception, will reduce costs to the states and to the federal government.

STEPHANOPOULOS: So no apologies for that?

PELOSI: No apologies. No. we have to deal with the consequences of the downturn in our economy.

Now, to be fair, I think Pelosi is saying she believes that funding abortions and birth control will "reduce costs to the state" in that, if the Federal Government pays for them, the states won't have to.

But, the endgame is still the same; when the Democrats think, "How can we help stimulate the economy?", one of the first places their minds go is, "Let's fund abortions."

That's just not where my mind goes when I think of how to help people. If that's what you think of, then you have every reason to be happy you voted Democrat.

If not, then welcome to the new reign of Moloch in America, where our government is invested in making sure there are less people as a means to stimulating the economy, as a means to "reducing costs to the state."
