19. That shit gave me WHIPLASH!
What fucking hypocrites.

NOW he wants black women to have abortions?

You know, it would really be nice if the right wing would let WOMEN decide if they want abortions, whether they're black OR white!

One of the first moves conservatives did to begin dismantling Roe back in the 1970s, was to pass the Hyde Amendment, that got rid of abortion from poor people's health plans and Medicaid.

Low income women essentially lost their right to choose many years ago because they couldn't afford any other options. They were simply stuck in their situations.

So instead of letting women spend $200-$400 of the government's money for an abortion if they wanted and needed one, the government is now stuck helping to pay for raising these kids-- who then don't get an education because of NCLB, whose mothers are barely scraping by, working 3 jobs, never get to spend time with their families, and the kids are unsupervised. Ergo, gangs, drugs, and crime.

We have a crime problem, and they and their fucking idealogy are at the root of it.
