Liberals like San Fran Nan never cease to amaze me
Now according to Ms Pelosi, babies are a burden to the government. Reminds me of when Obama said he did not want his daughters "punished" with a baby if they made a mistake
Showing her lack of understanding on a whole host of issues in one fell swoop, Granny McBotox was on This Week With George Stephanopoulos and defended spending hundreds of millions of dollars on 'family planning' in the stimulus bill on the grounds that it will save the states money.
STEPHANOPOULOS: We also heard from Congressman Boehner coming out of the meeting today that again a lot of that spending doesn't even meet the same test you just talked about right now. 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.
Er, spending money now to 'save' money later isn't exactly 'stimulus'. Of course that assumes you are actually saving money later. In reality this and much of the so-called 'stimulus plan' is simply social planning and funding of pet projects by Democrats.
And by the way, why does 'family planning' cost so much? As many morons can attest to, not having sex is pretty damn inexpensive.
On the upside, I welcome Speaker Pelosi to the border enforcement camp. Obviously millions of illegals aliens are as much of a drain, if not more so, on our economy than citizens who have babies.
Thanks Nancy!
