I DID A LOTTA GOOD IN TEXAS....

Strange that the did not mention that these mothers were overwhelmingly Mexican or Hispanic. Note, no mention of the welfare costs to working American citizens.

When you don't have to pay the costs associated with having babies, you spit them out like wet watermellon seeds!

Well, DUH!!! Criminal illegal female Mexican aliens of loose morals come across our imaginary border and have their babies at the first facility with Oriental doctors. Where's the surprise in that? No racial statistics because we don't want to emphasize the extraordinary cost to America, today and in the future, of our failure to have a real border. If the gringos have it, why shouldn't Mexican criminal aliens take advantage of it.

Texas newspapers now withhold the names of illegal Mexican alien drivers involved in traffic fatalities. They are uninsured (and often drunk/high), unlicensed, and, often, totally overwhelmed by driving an old car at almost 100 MPH. But, there are so many of them that the newspapers help conceal the fact by simply not reporting Mexican names.

"Teen Pregnancy Said Problem in Rio Grande Valley"

"... the Texas Department of Protective and Regulatory Services changed the program’s requirements to allow only 19- to 21-year-olds who needed housing assistance to get help. Because most pregnant teens in the Valley are younger and live with family after they get pregnant, funding for the program was cut, leaving many pregnant teens with only their schools to help."

Gotta love those young journalists schooled in the best of PC-speak. When I read the headline I initially thought the article was about teen pregnancy, but it is really about the cold, cruel Republicans in the statehouse that cut funding for programs that divide pregnant teens from their parents. Silly me.

Oh, and of course the issue that of course can't be spoken out loud is that the problem is cultural. The girls getting pregnant in the Rio Grande Valley are mostly Mexican-American. This is a problem that is an echo of our nation's immigration problem. I wonder what the teen pregnancy rate is on the other side of the border?

Lastly, note the second quote above. Because the pregnant teens only live with their parents, then they can only go to their school for help. Hellooo? I thought that's what parents were for. But this idiot young journalist can't see beyond the polemics of her bias.
