He should not have gotten personal with his remarks, but there was nothing racist about them. Does this guy not realize that Obama's mother is a white woman? Is HE so focused on race that he sees issues of racism even when they don't exist?
"Seventy-eight percent of Planned Parenthood offices are in black neighborhoods. Blacks make up 12 percent of the U.S. population but have 37 percent of the abortions"
Dr. Alveda King, niece of the late Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
advocates for abortion who have seen all the statistics are not just racists, but genocidal racists. non-white babies are murdered at disproportionately high rates.
so none of the white members of congress grew up in a poor environment, he couldnt reference one white member of congress instead of two black men, who grew up in poor neighborhoods. Really, really, come on, this was inherently racist, it assumes that the only and easy member of congress to accuse of being poor and more likely to have an abortion based on nothing more than money are black people.
Please, you do not even know the meaning of racism. On this level it is subjective, meaning you make it racist by your own pre-conceived notions about black people.
@uaw2nome I agree he should have had better tactics with his examples, but I do know a few people my sister included that would have done abortions if they were cheaper... I do find this being a small argument to all the issues that there is with the Health Care Bill.
nothing racist about what the congressman said , this is just another example of the fucking idiots at msnbc trying to call someone a racist because they disagree with obama and they wonder why no one really watches msnbc because they are trash and nothing but a mouth piece for obama
Nothing inherently racist there. [[Wikipedia " [I am a] practical European socialist" ? What about "[I am a ] dry drunk badly in need of a quart of vodka?"
To suggest that a woman's finances are the only consideration when faced with an unplanned pregnancy is seriously off the chain, and it illustrates the simplistic thinking of the right wing idealogue.
Tooshives' comment below cuts to the chase of why LO is understandably angry.
True, song. We all know that women kill their unborn babies for a plethora of reasons..not the least of which is "I want to wear a bikini this summer". The right wingers object to the use of abortion as birth control for any reason that the whore can find. Here's a tip: keep your skanky legs closed......then you won't have to kill.
Listen to the whole speech. He is not talking about black people he is talking about poor people. His two examples are of a black man and a bi-racial man. Sure, if your looking to turn everything racial(like MSNBC) then you wont be persuaded no matter what anyone says. But his point was, if abortions are free more will be done. All he is saying is we as a population run the risk of losing a great mind if they are aborted because they come from a poor family such was the case for Obama and Thomas
But why did he have to use Obama and Clarence Thomas as examples? I thought Thomas was anti-abortion. It seems racists cause he used two black men with opposing views on the subject. He could've used Obama and another Pro-choice supporter and it wouldn't have come off as bad.
If anyone would look at the purpose of planned parenthood and the push for abortion, they would see who the real racists are and what their real agenda is.
and who are they focusing on here- the poor, kill the poor because those wih money can pay for their own abortions. obviously. But let's encourage the poor to kill their babies
Congressman Tiahrt is exactly right. If the cost of abortion is zero it will lead to more abortions. This is basic economics. If you you reduce the cost of a behavior you will increase that behavior.
yes, but before you can use that as an argument against abortions, you must win the debate as to whether women have no right to have one. Otherwise your argument comes across as poor and nonsensical.
Hey good point. Abortion was ment for the black race and its elimination. Google margaret sanger, black race and eugenics. I dont know why this newsman has his panties wraped around his neck over this. I dont know how BO can endorse PP except that they both are spineless.
wow at the very least he is a gigantic dick

What was racist about that? Boy, racism sure does have a different meaning today. It really does diminish real racism.
