Rep. Michele Bachmann Warns Government May Limit Number of Babies
Opposing Views ^ | 3/7/12 | Michael Allen

Posted on 03/07/2012 1:55:50 PM PST by Nachum

On Tuesday night, Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) appeared on GBTV’s 'Real News From The Blaze' to attack government mandated insurance coverage for contraception, which she claimed could lead to the "health care dictator" limiting the number of babies born per family.

Rep. Bachmann said: “Going with that logic, it isn’t far-fetched to think the President of the United States could say…we need to save health care expenses…the federal government will only pay for one baby to be born in the hospital per family. Or two babies to be born per family. That could happen.”

But that’s absurd! Like saying that if a few more liberals judge were on the supreme court, then gay marriage might be declared a constitutional right. /s.

This is exactly what republicans need to do. Come back with a good argument of why the government should not be mandating anything to do with contraceptives. The democrats tried to advance the absurd notion that anyone against requiring religious organizations from having to provide free contraceptives was a person who was trying to deny a woman contraceptives, and the republicans should have countered with Bachman’s agrument that the government is trying to limit children.

“PSST...Quick, hide that agenda item while I address the issue!”

“How absurd! What are you, some sort of McCarthyite?”

Actually, back before the carbon cult was exposed, Obamists were saying exactly that. The biggest carbon footprint came from children, and the children of children.

That was the beauty of carbon credits. They gave you, with one stroke, the power to control everything, to decide everything, and to rake off a percentage of everything.

Considering what katherine sebelius said the other day it sounds like the left is already telegraphing that intent.

That will only pertain to married couples with insurance though right? Unmarried women will still be free to procreate to their hearts content with no restrictions I’m sure.

She’s actually pretty good at taking on the left. Unfortunately as a presidential candidate her statements drew just as many attacks from her fellow candidates as they did from the left.

A fairly decent "proxy demographic" for "white Christian", which is whom they would be targeting.

The Obama Regime is now forcing abortion and birth CONTROL on American women and destroying the American Family.

The Demo-Coms and their demo-comic followers in the media were allowed to obfuscate eugenics which is an integral part of Obama/Romneycare and reduce it into the mourning pill.
There are two issues here. Obama and his Demo-comic followers which includes a CINO (who should be excomminicated period) are preaching eugenics, population control. which is part of the Obamacare package. They are on record and actually say so. I am not going to reference it here but their statements are out there.

The second issue is its constitutionality imposing government position on religious groups. And BTW one graoup has been excluded on the Health care ...the Amish

.Demanding changes of acceptance in core cultural values held by religious groups and advancing eugenics meaning infantacide and condeming seniors to soylent green centers certainly does have a place in the political discussion. Particularly when that is being shoved on religious groups by the Demo-Coms . Especially when they’re ignoring constitutional rights...Two groups late in the last century led in that development the Nazis and the Communists. The Nazis began with smoking then terminating Down Syndrome children and on to mentaly defective children and adults.

Where the Santorum campaign failed was to allow the media and the opposition to describe the issue and reduce it into popping a morning pill. Furthurmore in Ohio’s case you had some major market so called “conservative” talk show hosts ridiculing Santorum on this issue not just the dummers on MSM.

Whether unfortunately Santorum decides to shy away from this issue or re-frame it is up to him and his advisors. But he should be encouraged to adjust the focus. One way the bishops can help is use the mechanisms they have to do so...after all they have shut down parishes which retained the latin mass but can’t speakout and act on this despicable movement .

Don’t worry, healthcare meddling will amount to the same thing, from another direction.

And government/taxpayer money subsidies, no doubt.

If this keeps up there will someday be an election, when votes are not cast with ballots.

Yes, because there is a high likelihood that their (unmarried women’s) offspring will vote democratic.

Well it’s not out of the realm of possibilities.

Have children while you still can. There is still time to outnumber them. Don’t just be prolife, be prolific!

Did Bachmann ever come out against Romney?
