This blog used to be about politics. Not so much anymore as I have worked through my fascination with that subject. It now seems appropriate that with a new president and the end of the Bush nightmare that I move on to new subjects that are more in line with my current interests. I may still occasionally express an opinion about political matters but for the most part I will be commenting on music, photography and personal observations. Thank you for reading.

We Need More Poor Children to Replace the Mexicans?
 

The Raw Story | Tom DeLay tells College Republicans that abortion, illegal immigration are linked
"I contend [abortion] affects you in immigration," DeLay told the Washington-area gathering. "If we had those 40 million children that were killed over the last 30 years, we wouldn't need the illegal immigrants to fill the jobs that they are doing today. Think about it."


So... abortion is really about the poor's failure to breed an underclass willing to do menial labor? Even the language - "If we had those 40 million children..." belies a feeling of ownership, as if Delay and his Republican colleagues are entitled to a workforce ready and willing to support their wealth and power. Of course, the Republican's do feel entitled as white christians to sit atop the global food chain and decide who should be allowed to do what. Its just rare to hear it so plainly stated without all the confusing rhetoric that is reserved for less sympathetic audiences.
