WEBVTT - The Fertility Gap: Democrats Aborting Their Kids 0:00:00.080 --> 0:00:02.200 I've got to do this. I gotta tell you about this. 0:00:02.240 --> 0:00:07.640 It's in USA Today. It's a USA Today story, and 0:00:07.720 --> 0:00:14.440 it is the most incredible attempt uh to to advance 0:00:15.920 --> 0:00:22.480 the failure of liberal Democrat ideas on social welfare. Here's 0:00:22.480 --> 0:00:29.280 the headline, Fertility gap helps explain political divide. House Democratic 0:00:29.320 --> 0:00:33.280 leader Nancy Pelosi, a Catholic mother of five from San Francisco, 0:00:33.960 --> 0:00:36.880 has fewer children in her district than any other member 0:00:36.880 --> 0:00:44.479 of Congress. Thousand, seven hundred and twenty seven. Representative Chris Cannon, Republican, Utah, 0:00:44.720 --> 0:00:48.479 a Mormon father of eight, represents the most children in 0:00:48.520 --> 0:00:54.520 a Congressional district two hundred seventy eight thousand three. These 0:00:54.560 --> 0:01:00.760 two extremes reflect a stark demographic divide beach the congressional 0:01:00.760 --> 0:01:05.600 districts controlled by the major political parties. Republican House members 0:01:05.720 --> 0:01:12.320 overwhelmingly overwhelmingly come from districts that have high percentages of 0:01:12.360 --> 0:01:15.360 married people and lots of children. According to a USA 0:01:15.440 --> 0:01:18.160 Today analysis of two thousand five cents of this Bureau Info, 0:01:19.200 --> 0:01:23.240 GOP Congress members represent thirty nine point two million children 0:01:23.319 --> 0:01:28.120 younger than eighteen, about seven million more than Democrats. Republicans 0:01:28.160 --> 0:01:32.920 average seven thousand more children per district. Now, do any 0:01:32.959 --> 0:01:35.520 of you yet listening to this, have any idea where 0:01:35.520 --> 0:01:37.920 this is going? All right, you tell me where do 0:01:37.959 --> 0:01:42.280 you think this is going? Yep, no, no, no, no, 0:01:42.280 --> 0:01:45.480 no no no. Snardly, that's not that. That is never 0:01:45.840 --> 0:01:52.800 mentioned in this story. Hang with me. Many Democrats represent 0:01:52.880 --> 0:01:58.440 areas that have many single people and relatively Futuran. Democratic 0:01:58.480 --> 0:02:01.120 districts that have large numbers of children tend to be 0:02:01.200 --> 0:02:06.400 predominantly Hispanic or to a lesser extent, African American. Now, 0:02:06.440 --> 0:02:08.600 do you get an idea where this might be headed? 0:02:10.800 --> 0:02:15.519 The fertility gap? This fertility gap is crucial to understanding 0:02:15.560 --> 0:02:20.880 the differences between liberals and conservatives, says Arthur Brooks, a 0:02:20.919 --> 0:02:25.800 professor of public administration at Syracuse University. These child bearing 0:02:25.840 --> 0:02:30.880 patterns shape divisions over issues such as welfare, education, and 0:02:31.040 --> 0:02:35.240 child tax credits goop traditional families. Both sides are very 0:02:35.240 --> 0:02:39.480 pro kids, Brooks says, they just express it in different ways. 0:02:40.320 --> 0:02:44.799 Republicans are congenial to traditional families, which is clearly the 0:02:44.840 --> 0:02:47.040 best way for kids to grow up, but there are 0:02:47.120 --> 0:02:50.720 some kids who don't have that advantage, and Democrats are 0:02:50.800 --> 0:02:56.520 very concerned with helping those kids. No, they are not related. 0:02:56.600 --> 0:03:00.720 For one thing, they abort those kids did not. This 0:03:00.800 --> 0:03:03.320 story does not get to the real reason for this 0:03:03.480 --> 0:03:07.040 so called fertility gap, and that is the Democrats are 0:03:07.160 --> 0:03:11.880 aborting their kids in far greater numbers than Republicans do. 0:03:15.160 --> 0:03:19.000 Besides that, of the kids who survive a Democrat pregnancy, 0:03:19.080 --> 0:03:24.880 which is a risky pregnancy. You get pregnant and you're 0:03:24.919 --> 0:03:29.960 a Democrat, your child's chances of survival are remarkably less 0:03:30.520 --> 0:03:34.880 than other people. Well, the fertility gap here to me 0:03:35.120 --> 0:03:39.640 is a crucial element and understanding that. But of the 0:03:39.800 --> 0:03:45.480 children who survive a Democrat pregnancy, they have not been 0:03:45.560 --> 0:03:48.200 helped by Democrats. In the last fifty years, all of 0:03:48.200 --> 0:03:52.000 these great society programs busted up the families that this 0:03:52.120 --> 0:03:55.480 story is winging its hands over. Oh it's horrible, they 0:03:55.560 --> 0:03:59.720 think of family. Why did that happen? It's because Democrats 0:03:59.760 --> 0:04:04.480 came with programs, feel good programs, feeling good about ourselves, programs, 0:04:04.480 --> 0:04:07.240 look at how we care. We're good people, we see 0:04:07.320 --> 0:04:11.160 suffering and we want to help, And so they became 0:04:11.760 --> 0:04:15.240 essentially surrogant fathers. The government became surrogant father. The real 0:04:15.280 --> 0:04:19.120 father had no reason to hang around. Uh and and 0:04:19.160 --> 0:04:23.480 so you had all these broken families. In fact, I 0:04:23.600 --> 0:04:26.359 go so I'll go even further. I I think that 0:04:26.440 --> 0:04:29.760 Democrats enjoy they need victims. Let's face it, and this 0:04:29.839 --> 0:04:32.120 is another problem presented to the fertility gap. They're fewer 0:04:32.160 --> 0:04:34.960 and fewer victims. Why do you think they're so interested 0:04:34.960 --> 0:04:38.520 in illegal immigrants. They need victims, They need poor people, 0:04:38.560 --> 0:04:41.920 they need people who have not reached their potential, they 0:04:41.960 --> 0:04:45.360 need people who are dependent. They want to keep as 0:04:45.440 --> 0:04:47.760 many of these people in a dependent state because they 0:04:47.760 --> 0:04:51.360 think they'll vote for Democrats in that state. Children in 0:04:51.440 --> 0:04:54.279 Democratic districts are far more likely to live in poverty 0:04:54.360 --> 0:04:58.880 and with single parents than kids in GOP districts. Okay, well, 0:04:58.960 --> 0:05:02.320 let's try to figure out why then and do what 0:05:02.440 --> 0:05:04.360 really needs to be done to help these kids. Let's 0:05:04.400 --> 0:05:07.920 figure out why instead of the point of this story 0:05:08.040 --> 0:05:12.960 is absurd. Jose Serranto, Congressman Democrat New York two hundred 0:05:13.000 --> 0:05:15.800 twenty seven thousand children and his Bronx district the tenth 0:05:15.880 --> 0:05:21.000 most in the House. Only of those two seven thousand 0:05:21.120 --> 0:05:27.520 kids live with married parents. By contrast, of children live 0:05:27.600 --> 0:05:31.880 with married parents in Chris Cannon's Central Utah district. These 0:05:31.960 --> 0:05:34.360 numbers are amazing. Cannon says, I see now where Jose 0:05:34.560 --> 0:05:36.279 is coming from. What do you mean where Jose is 0:05:36.320 --> 0:05:39.800 coming from. Cannon used to have a locker next to 0:05:39.839 --> 0:05:43.120 Serranto at the congressional gym, considers him a friend. The 0:05:43.160 --> 0:05:45.120 needs of kids in his district are just not the 0:05:45.160 --> 0:05:47.120 same as the needs of children in my district. So 0:05:47.200 --> 0:05:50.240 you see where this is a Democrats are going to 0:05:50.360 --> 0:05:52.840 make a claim we need more social programs, we need 0:05:52.920 --> 0:05:56.440 more welfare, we need more attention to Democrat districts because 0:05:56.480 --> 0:06:00.960 the kids in those districts are in such poor circumstances. 0:06:03.440 --> 0:06:08.520 The biggest gaps in American politics are religion, race, and 0:06:08.640 --> 0:06:16.240 marital status, says Democratic poster and Greenberg. Uh, the story 0:06:16.279 --> 0:06:18.279 it never gets to where I'm sure you thought it 0:06:18.320 --> 0:06:25.719 was headed, and that is abortion, the fertility gap focus, well, 0:06:25.560 --> 0:06:28.359 alternative lifestyles too, Yeah, we we have you have to 0:06:28.400 --> 0:06:30.279 throw that in there. I mean, that's that's that's clearly 0:06:30.279 --> 0:06:31.919 gonna be a factor too, and why there would be 0:06:31.920 --> 0:06:36.200 fewer kids per Democrat congressional district. But this is a 0:06:36.360 --> 0:06:42.440 if true. This is a total indictment of Democrat lifestyles, attitudes, politics, 0:06:42.520 --> 0:06:45.880 and yet it's portrayed as something Republicans are mean spirited 0:06:45.880 --> 0:06:47.920 and hoarding all the goodies for their kids and it's 0:06:47.920 --> 0:06:51.640 not needed because Marianne and Louisville, Ohio. Hi Maryannam glad 0:06:51.680 --> 0:06:54.479 you called. Hi, Rush. It's good to talk to you. 0:06:54.720 --> 0:06:57.360 Thank you. You know, I don't want to upstate and 0:06:57.520 --> 0:06:59.360 the real news of the day, but I did have 0:06:59.480 --> 0:07:06.400 another point to make it. Very cool of you, very good. Um. 0:07:06.440 --> 0:07:08.320 I'm afraid you. I'm a little worried about you. I'm 0:07:08.320 --> 0:07:10.480 afraid you might be on the news with him tonight 0:07:11.480 --> 0:07:18.520 as a headline said Democrats aboard their children. I was 0:07:18.560 --> 0:07:20.240 really surprised to hear you say that. I mean, I 0:07:20.280 --> 0:07:23.760 have believed this for a long time, but I would 0:07:23.800 --> 0:07:26.239 I didn't expect who you say it so and don't 0:07:26.240 --> 0:07:32.560 back down and make a wimpy apology. Uh, I have 0:07:32.560 --> 0:07:34.720 no intention of backing the Why why I don't get 0:07:34.760 --> 0:07:37.920 your point. You're worried that the Democrats are gonna put 0:07:37.920 --> 0:07:39.760 me on the news tonight is saying they aboard their 0:07:39.800 --> 0:07:42.200 kids and that's why there's a fertility gap. Well, I'm 0:07:42.200 --> 0:07:44.080 afraid that. You know, like you read the story and 0:07:44.120 --> 0:07:46.000 it said nothing about that, and you picked up the 0:07:46.040 --> 0:07:48.400 real point of it. I thought too, but we would 0:07:48.840 --> 0:07:53.480 the table shows tonight. They're gonna let them. I don't 0:07:53.520 --> 0:07:56.080 worry about what they say about the day I start. 0:07:56.320 --> 0:07:59.080 I mean, I really, you're worried about me being discredited 0:07:59.160 --> 0:08:01.040 as a as a list. You're in a devotee of 0:08:01.080 --> 0:08:03.520 this program. You're worried about seeing me being criticized it 0:08:03.960 --> 0:08:08.040 And I understand that it's the maternal instinct. Uh. But 0:08:08.040 --> 0:08:10.480 but let's stick with me here. If this you think 0:08:10.480 --> 0:08:12.840 I'm just making that up. You think I'm just pulling 0:08:12.840 --> 0:08:14.760 that out of thin air, you think it's just my opinion. 0:08:15.120 --> 0:08:18.280 I think it's true. Well would you like some would 0:08:18.320 --> 0:08:22.560 you like would you like some backup for it? Well? 0:08:22.680 --> 0:08:24.640 What do you mean? I have it right here in 0:08:24.680 --> 0:08:29.120 my formerly nicotes right here from March one of this year, 0:08:29.200 --> 0:08:32.600 two thousand six. Who's Your Daddy? It's a piece by 0:08:32.679 --> 0:08:38.360 James Toronto in the Best of the Web blog, which 0:08:38.400 --> 0:08:42.400 is the Opinion journal dot com website. In the new 0:08:42.440 --> 0:08:46.720 issue of Foreign Policy magazine, Philip Longman of the liberal 0:08:46.840 --> 0:08:51.599 New American Foundation has a fascinating essay on demographics and politics, 0:08:51.640 --> 0:08:56.600 the gist of which is that differing reproductive patterns are 0:08:56.760 --> 0:09:00.679 likely to make Western society is including the US, more conservative. 0:09:01.160 --> 0:09:04.360 I reported this, and I talked about this back in 0:09:04.440 --> 0:09:09.920 March when it came out, specifically those who practice patriarchy, 0:09:09.960 --> 0:09:12.840 which Longman defines not in the crude feminist sense of 0:09:12.880 --> 0:09:16.720 men dominating women, but as a quote particular value system 0:09:16.760 --> 0:09:19.040 that not only requires men to marry, but to marry 0:09:19.080 --> 0:09:22.440 a woman of proper station. Those people that practice that 0:09:22.480 --> 0:09:26.160 are outbreeding those who do not. In the United States, 0:09:26.880 --> 0:09:30.199 the percentage of women born in a late thirties who 0:09:30.240 --> 0:09:35.160 remained childless was near ten percent. By comparison, nearly twenty 0:09:35.200 --> 0:09:38.040 percent of women born in the late fifties are reaching 0:09:38.040 --> 0:09:41.880 the end of their reproductive lives without having children. The 0:09:42.000 --> 0:09:46.920 greatly expanded childless segment of contemporary society, whose members are 0:09:46.960 --> 0:09:51.160 drawn disproportionately from the feminist and countercultural movements of the 0:09:51.200 --> 0:09:55.120 sixties and seventies, and liberal writing this will leave no 0:09:55.440 --> 0:09:59.560 genetic legacy normal their emotional or psychological influence on the 0:09:59.559 --> 0:10:02.839 next general ration compare with that of their parents. Conservatives 0:10:02.840 --> 0:10:04.800 are having more babies. That's what was said in the 0:10:04.840 --> 0:10:08.480 USA Today story. This this guy, this is the Philip Longman, 0:10:08.520 --> 0:10:12.520 New American Foundation says that fewer and fewer liberal women 0:10:12.679 --> 0:10:17.199 influenced by feminism at all are having fewer and fewer children, 0:10:17.960 --> 0:10:22.360 and therefore there's less opportunity to breed little liberals. They're 0:10:22.400 --> 0:10:25.120 just gonna be fewer of them. Meanwhile, conservatives are having 0:10:25.200 --> 0:10:28.760 kids in the old patriarchal sense, the nuclear family unit. 0:10:29.120 --> 0:10:31.680 They're influencing the way their kids grow up, and they're 0:10:31.720 --> 0:10:34.640 simply at some point in the future, conservative kids are 0:10:34.640 --> 0:10:37.080 gonna out number of Liberals and later on in this story. 0:10:37.840 --> 0:10:42.839 H Later on in this story, this of course dovetails 0:10:42.920 --> 0:10:46.480 with the Row effect i e. Ro versus Wade. Now 0:10:46.520 --> 0:10:49.000 abortion has been brought into this not by me, but 0:10:49.120 --> 0:10:53.040 by demo demographers. This of course dovetails with the Row effect, 0:10:53.040 --> 0:10:58.760 which surely magnifies the political consequences. Support for unrestricted abortion 0:10:58.880 --> 0:11:02.200 defines the content perary Democratic Party more than any other 0:11:02.240 --> 0:11:07.440 issue does, and abortion advocates open contempt toward those who 0:11:07.520 --> 0:11:10.640 disagree makes it hard for the latter to be Democrats. 0:11:11.000 --> 0:11:15.000 Longman draws a lesson from military history. After the agricultural revolution, 0:11:15.320 --> 0:11:17.640 in more and more places in the world, fast breeding 0:11:17.679 --> 0:11:21.120 tribes morphed into nations and empires and swept away any 0:11:21.160 --> 0:11:24.679 remaining slow breeding hunters and gatherers. It mattered that your 0:11:24.679 --> 0:11:27.720 warriors were fierce and valiant in battle. It mattered more 0:11:27.720 --> 0:11:30.320 that there were lots of them. And there's simply fewer 0:11:30.360 --> 0:11:34.360 and fewer Liberals having kids, which would have to soume 0:11:34.440 --> 0:11:38.040 fewer and fewer liberal offspring growing up. And this is 0:11:38.080 --> 0:11:40.960 something we covered in March. Now, this USA Today story 0:11:41.000 --> 0:11:43.960 didn't mention this Today, which I was stunned about and 0:11:44.000 --> 0:11:47.960 stunned by. They focused on a pure social welfare angle 0:11:48.040 --> 0:11:50.600 of it, and try to say that the poor kids, 0:11:50.760 --> 0:11:53.680 and they're fewer of them in democratic districts. Somehows the 0:11:53.720 --> 0:11:57.640 problem of Republicans when it's when it's just things. But 0:11:57.800 --> 0:12:00.959 I appreciate your being concerned for me. So few people 0:12:01.000 --> 0:12:03.920 are so a few people. Most people. You have to understand, Mary, 0:12:03.960 --> 0:12:06.480 and most people would love to see me plummet to 0:12:06.520 --> 0:12:11.040 the depths of obscurity. And you have, you have called, 0:12:11.160 --> 0:12:14.720 and you have you have expressed genuine love and heartfelt 0:12:14.760 --> 0:12:17.600 concern and even fear for what might happen. But you 0:12:17.679 --> 0:12:21.160 fear not because whatever they say, we can back it up. Here, 0:12:21.280 --> 0:12:23.920 Can I say one more thing? By all means, I 0:12:23.960 --> 0:12:26.520 just want to tell Jane Fonda to go back to 0:12:26.559 --> 0:12:30.640 doing aerobic because we the women of this country, say no, 0:12:30.800 --> 0:12:33.080 thank you to her. Okay, stop and think about that 0:12:33.160 --> 0:12:36.000 for a second. Now, you know, here here, now, this 0:12:36.040 --> 0:12:39.680 is an excellent point. Jane Fonda and who Steinham and 0:12:39.760 --> 0:12:44.199 these other babes are doing this new feminist radio network. 0:12:46.080 --> 0:12:50.080 Well they're on four stations nationwide, of course, nation You 0:12:50.120 --> 0:13:00.280 know what their topics are, sewing, child care, fung SWI 0:13:00.640 --> 0:13:02.080 I'm not no, no, no no, I'm not making this up. 0:13:02.120 --> 0:13:04.800 The point is here are these women to say women 0:13:04.840 --> 0:13:09.040 are being driven away from traditional talk radio? Why because 0:13:09.080 --> 0:13:11.360 they don't like the subject matter, They don't like confrontation, 0:13:11.400 --> 0:13:13.880 they don't like dealing with issues. Well, what the hell 0:13:13.960 --> 0:13:16.600 was the feminist movement all about? Here are these feminist 0:13:16.760 --> 0:13:19.320 icons who are now going to go on the radio 0:13:19.520 --> 0:13:23.200 and try to replicate nineteen fifties and sixties high school 0:13:23.200 --> 0:13:26.280 homet class as a way of attracting women. If that's 0:13:26.320 --> 0:13:28.920 not the greatest and final nail in the coffin of 0:13:28.960 --> 0:13:32.760 Middleton feminism from these founders anyway, then I don't know 0:13:32.800 --> 0:13:41.120 what is uh. You know, this job is hard. I 0:13:41.240 --> 0:13:44.240 just make it look easy because I'm good the Great 0:13:44.320 --> 0:13:47.000 make everything they do look easy. That's why everybody thinks 0:13:47.040 --> 0:13:51.360 they can do what the great do. Um. But I understand, uh, 0:13:51.400 --> 0:13:55.000 totally your point, Beth in Act in Massachusetts. I'm glad 0:13:55.040 --> 0:13:58.360 you called and waited. Welcome to the program. Hi. I 0:13:58.440 --> 0:14:01.760 just wanted to say, if you like the Darwinian theory 0:14:02.000 --> 0:14:05.679 that the liberals love so much to their reproductive habits, 0:14:05.800 --> 0:14:09.040 they'll be driving themselves into extinction eventually. Will the rest 0:14:09.080 --> 0:14:14.000 of us conservative Christians continue to reproduce sur survival of 0:14:14.040 --> 0:14:19.760 the fittest? Yes, Darwinnian theory? Yes? How can liberals evolve 0:14:19.800 --> 0:14:23.480 if there are no liberals exactly? Well, you know, I 0:14:23.520 --> 0:14:26.120 live in Massachusetts, and it's interesting to hear you say 0:14:26.120 --> 0:14:28.600 these things because I've noticed it that, you know, anywhere 0:14:28.600 --> 0:14:31.320 I go, the liberals I know, have one child. If 0:14:31.360 --> 0:14:33.440 they have a girl, she doesn't want to have children. 0:14:33.880 --> 0:14:36.800 Or if they have a boy, he's seminized. This poor 0:14:36.840 --> 0:14:40.120 guy has been just emasculated on drugs or whatever. And 0:14:40.240 --> 0:14:42.400 I just don't see them having grandchildren. And then they 0:14:42.480 --> 0:14:45.160 lamented as they get older. You know, where are my grandchildren? 0:14:45.200 --> 0:14:47.360 Well you never embraced life, and life isn't going to 0:14:47.400 --> 0:14:52.080 embrace you. Well, whatever the reasons, I mean, whatever they 0:14:53.120 --> 0:14:58.880 factors here, we've now got Census data Bureau, Census Bureau 0:14:59.000 --> 0:15:04.920 data that that that confirms this in a demographic fashion. Uh. 0:15:05.000 --> 0:15:09.000 We're not sitting here making this stuff up. What we've 0:15:09.080 --> 0:15:12.160 learned today from USA today, via the Census Bureau is 0:15:12.400 --> 0:15:15.760 that the per congressional district, there are seven thousand fewer 0:15:15.880 --> 0:15:20.280 kids in Democrat districts on average nationwide than Republican districts. 0:15:20.440 --> 0:15:22.680 We've also learned that most of them are in one 0:15:22.680 --> 0:15:24.800 are many of them are in a single parent homes 0:15:24.840 --> 0:15:28.320 and are very poor, and most are Hispanic and black, 0:15:28.440 --> 0:15:33.600 those who are poor and fit this profile. Uh. It's 0:15:33.640 --> 0:15:36.760 not hard to draw conclusions here, folks. Liberalism doesn't work, 0:15:37.480 --> 0:15:40.400 flat out just doesn't work. And a number of cities 0:15:40.440 --> 0:15:43.040 in this country established that. For the rest of you 0:15:43.160 --> 0:15:47.000 who might be concerned over the statements I made today, 0:15:47.040 --> 0:15:50.720 that the Democrats are aborting children and that's why there's 0:15:50.760 --> 0:15:54.240 a fertility gap. Uh. And even though the piece that 0:15:54.280 --> 0:15:59.520 I just shared with you by the very liberal uh 0:16:00.120 --> 0:16:04.240 his name again, Philip Longman, the New American Foundation, let's 0:16:04.680 --> 0:16:08.840 let's hit you with this, uh. Friday, May twelve, two 0:16:08.880 --> 0:16:13.920 thousand six again James Taranto Opinion Journal dot com. Judicial 0:16:13.960 --> 0:16:18.280 Watch has been researching the Clinton administration's policy and r 0:16:18.360 --> 0:16:22.080 U forty six the abortion drug and the final exhibit 0:16:22.320 --> 0:16:25.320 begins on page sixty of the PDF document linked above, 0:16:25.520 --> 0:16:28.960 and they do have the link here. Uh makes for 0:16:29.000 --> 0:16:34.359 fascinating reading. It is written by Ron Weddington. Ron Weddington, 0:16:34.440 --> 0:16:36.920 who served as co counsel along with his better half 0:16:36.960 --> 0:16:44.240 Sarah Weddington, in successfully arguing Row versus Wade. The cover 0:16:44.360 --> 0:16:47.760 letter dated January, but the year seems to be an 0:16:47.840 --> 0:16:51.360 error since the address ee, Betsy Wright, is identified as 0:16:51.360 --> 0:16:54.240 working for the Transition Team Clinton Transition Team. In it, 0:16:55.000 --> 0:16:58.240 Weddington tells Betsy Wright of the four page missive to 0:16:58.280 --> 0:17:01.360 the President to be that follows that I am going 0:17:01.400 --> 0:17:05.639 to try to get it published. Uh. Would you like 0:17:05.720 --> 0:17:08.320 to hear some excerpts from this letter that Ron Weddington, 0:17:08.440 --> 0:17:11.920 co council on Roll versus Wade wrote to then President 0:17:11.960 --> 0:17:17.040 elect Bill Clinton. You want to hear it? These are excerpts. 0:17:19.520 --> 0:17:21.440 I don't think you're gonna go very far in reforming 0:17:21.480 --> 0:17:25.080 the country until we have a better educated and healthier 0:17:25.080 --> 0:17:30.080 and wealthier population. You can start immediately to eliminate the 0:17:30.119 --> 0:17:33.440 barely educated, the unhealthy, and poor segment of our country. No, 0:17:33.520 --> 0:17:35.800 I'm not advocating some sort of mass extinction of these 0:17:35.840 --> 0:17:39.719 unfortunate people. Crime, drugs, and disease are already doing that. 0:17:39.840 --> 0:17:42.399 The problem is that their numbers are not only replaced, 0:17:43.000 --> 0:17:45.879 but increased by the birth of millions of babies to 0:17:46.000 --> 0:17:49.280 people who can't afford to have babies. There, I've said it. 0:17:49.280 --> 0:17:51.159 It's what we all know is true. We lost a 0:17:51.200 --> 0:17:53.639 lot of ground during the Reagan Bush religious orgy. We 0:17:53.640 --> 0:17:57.040 don't have a lot of time left. The biblical exhortation 0:17:57.080 --> 0:17:59.600 to be fruitful and multiply was directed towards a small 0:17:59.640 --> 0:18:04.480 try surrounded by enemies. We are long past that our 0:18:04.480 --> 0:18:08.800 survival depends upon our developing a population where everyone contributes. 0:18:09.440 --> 0:18:12.280 We don't need more cannon fodder. We don't need more parishioners. 0:18:12.280 --> 0:18:14.440 We don't need more cheap later. We don't need more 0:18:14.520 --> 0:18:21.520 poor babies. This appeared at the Opinion Journal dot com 0:18:21.520 --> 0:18:23.880 on March or May the twelfth, I'm sorry of this year. 0:18:24.520 --> 0:18:28.680 It was written to then President elect Clinton uh sometime 0:18:28.720 --> 0:18:33.879 in to Betsy Wright from the co Council of the 0:18:33.960 --> 0:18:37.520 ro VERSUS Wait now what's he advocating here. He's advocating 0:18:37.680 --> 0:18:40.960 abortion and having a litmus test on who shouldn't who 0:18:40.960 --> 0:18:43.120 shouldn't have kids. And I'm not talking. I'm not indicting 0:18:43.160 --> 0:18:45.960 Clinton here. Don't misunderstand. I'm just saying this is somebody 0:18:45.960 --> 0:18:47.800 thought he was on Clinton's side. This is a co 0:18:47.800 --> 0:18:50.720 counsel in ro versus way, this is a Democrat. So 0:18:51.880 --> 0:18:53.520 it's best to get this stuff out in the open. 0:18:53.600 --> 0:18:56.480 If you think I'm out on a limb suggesting that 0:18:56.560 --> 0:18:59.160 there's a fertility gap at a lack of replacement level 0:18:59.200 --> 0:19:01.680 liberals out there because of a lack of liberal births 0:19:02.400 --> 0:19:04.680 and the abortion is not a factor in it, You've 0:19:04.720 --> 0:19:08.080 got to have your head examined. It is the foremost 0:19:08.160 --> 0:19:12.040 important social issue on the Democrat agenda and has been 0:19:12.080 --> 0:19:16.600 for as long as I've been following this stuff. So 0:19:17.280 --> 0:19:19.840 I appreciate the concern you people have for me out there, 0:19:19.880 --> 0:19:22.560 but I'm gonna get into all this stuff unless there's 0:19:22.600 --> 0:19:23.600 back up for it.
