On the Melissa H P show, the discussion was latino voters, and why they aint buying Repub Nuthin. And the first woman said Repubs drove them away, with antilatino campaigns. And Michael Steele said, it is all and only about the numbers. Then said that the impending Latino majority is driving all of it. They are trying to segregate states that are reactionary. Red States. Romney's depiction of self deportation.
I go one further, and say the other blood enemy of Repubs, women, and the surrounding reproductive choices debate, is all about the numbers. Their need for greater numbers of Caucasian births. And less brown births. Therefore, my article here.

Now I find, that Repubs are charging Obama with feticide. Classic projection. They say he is aborting black children. Also, they accuse him of promoting gendercide. Another projection of diminishing white MEN. And patriarchy.
As I have said for some time, its all about the demographics. All the insane social conservative issues boil down to the Caucasians, fear and loathing of losing white hegemony.
The Repub attacks against the poor, are also attacks against a majority brown community. Or, brown VOTERS.
The attacks against Student voting eligibility, are self explanatory.
It is almost worse, that they rail against things, using scapegoating, knowing full well it is about their white privilege. And crushing anything that threatens it.
PS. This puts the Israeli/Palestinian issue into perspective as well.

(10,942 posts)I know two people that vote republican. One is dependent upon unemployment benefits and extension of those benefits. The second is dependent upon aid for disabled people. Yet they blindly vote republican. Their ignorance is astounding.

(53,410 posts)I read recently that in California the brown people who are under 18 already outnumber their white counterparts. That demographic truth will expand up the age ladder in each succeeding decade.
The white supremacy hold on history is about to change in our lifetimes. Actually it's already changing. Thus the backlash of Uber Conservative Religious fervor.
The writing is on the wall.

(14,177 posts)If they are indeed trying to force more white women to have babies, then they will also force more brown people to have babies. If that happens the percentage of brown people having babies will go higher not lower.

In the article it talks about a bill going through Georgia attempting to investigate every miscarriage as 'prenatal murder"
From the article:
The Georgia state legislature's bill that proposes criminalizing miscarriage would create a state record of all miscarriages and would assign investigators to cases of miscarriage. This law would classify the removal of a fetus for any reason other than to produce a live birth or remove a dead fetus "prenatal murder".
From the bill:
(a) A report of spontaneous fetal death for each spontaneous fetal death which occurs in this state shall be filed with the local registrar of the county in which the delivery occurred within 72 hours after such delivery... unless the place of fetal death is unknown, in which case a fetal death certificate shall be filed in the county in which the dead fetus was found within 72 hours after such occurrence."
And if thats not spine chilling enough there is also this line:
(line 103, pg. 4): (26) The act of prenatal murder has caused a significant reduction in the number of citizens in this state who would serve as workers, entrepreneurs, teachers, employees, and employers who would have significantly contributed to the prosperity and continuation of this state."
Truly truly scary!
