"I think all that is missing from the article is was any of the money given to China and used for the one child policy? "

"a provision in the measure explicitly prohibited funding for “the performance of involuntary sterilization or abortion or to coerce any person to accept family planning.”

Which is not something that could be hung around Newt's neck, like Romney is trying to do..

If you have to put in a stipulation that the money you are giving a group wont be used to aid 1 child policy, then you should not be giving that organization any money. This is no different than giving PP money and saying “dont use any of this on abortions.” While that money may not directly go to abortions, it frees up that same amount of pre-assigned money to now go to abortions, so the end result is you funded them. It says something about the gullibility of anyone who was pushing this legislation.

It very well could be put around Newt, because of the good intentions bad result aspect.
