| Cong. Gwen Moore: 'I Don't Think We Do Children A Favor By Forcing Women To Give Birth' |
| 2015-09-29 |
| [Daily Caller] Democratic Wisconsin Rep. Gwen Moore is continuing her push to keep Planned Parenthood funded, claiming reallocating the funds to other healthcare organizations that don't perform abortions wouldn't be an adequate option. Life is a favor? Interesting concept or insane tribal logic ? At a press conference held by the Congressional Black Caucus Monday, Moore said due to the length of time women are fertile throughout their lives, it can be difficult preventing pregnancy. That is a lot of time to prevent pregnancies, and it's hard for me to believe that any woman would want to be pregnant every year for 35 years," she said. "So women have been desperately in need for this healthcare remedy, which is why it has been such a strenuous effort to provide this life saving benefit to women." While Planned Parenthood receives close to half a billion dollars a year in federal funds, Moore says due to the Hyde Amendment none of that money goes toward abortions. Critics say the money indirectly funds the cause because money provided by private donors could be used for women's healthcare instead of the procedure. So Congresswoman Moore the CBC at long last admit abortion is simply another form of birth control. |

| #12 I wonder if the left will ever understand that conservative opposition to abortion is based on principle and not calculation. They understand very well, rjschwarz, that's why they hate you so much. |

| #11 I wonder if the left will ever understand that conservative opposition to abortion is based on principle and not calculation. I mean if conservatives were the political animals the left are they'd push for Abortion figuring lefty mom would brainwash lefty children so we are better off with fewer lefty children. But the left can't comprehend this because they project their own lack of scruples upon their enemies. |

| #8 It can be ascribed to some higher authority, climate change, or a super galactic eugenics experiment, but I'm reasonably certain a separation of the tribes was part of the original intent. The exceptions simply do not appear to be playing out well anywhere. |

| #4 ..sort of like males have been forced for over two hundred years to automatically be part of the militia and therefore subject to mutilation, disfigurement, mental impairment, and death. It's called male privilege. The privilege runs from age 18 to 45. |

| #2 With the success of IVF, I suppose we should be moving to harvesting, preserving and snipping for both sexes. I guess the outpatient services are already here, but not popularized because there is more money to be made from the D&C. |
