Bush Signs Largest Family Planning Bill In U.S. History

Covenant News ^ | 1/11/02

[truthandlife]

On Thursday, January 10, 2002, the White House reported President Bush signed the ominous $15.4 billion foreign appropriations bill, H.R. 2506, for fiscal-year 2002. The bill authorizes $446.5 million U.S. tax dollars to be given to other countries for abortion-family planning activities throughout the world. The abortion-family planning funds approved by Bush represents an increase of $21.5 million over last year for international family planning. Also on Thursday, Bush signed the labor, education and health spending bill, and a defense spending bill that was widely reported by The Associated Press (Bush Signs Defense Spending Bill).

...what could it be?

Abortion is a GOP policy.

"Abortion is Vital to the Solution" ... A Key Point from Kissinger's NSSM-200

[Unbeliever]

Tell me again the difference between Shrub and al gWHore?

[Dane]

Ahem, please take a look at reply #27

[Dane]

And Henry Kissinger is in what foreign policy position in the Bush administration?

Please tell me.

[Askel5]

Ahem, please take a look at the linked article in #41 and explain it for me.

(Just curious ... I know you've got the ability to rationalize just about anything but I'm wondering if you've the stones to actually do it.)

"You know what makes me the most angry? It's sure as hell not the fact that Bush operates true to form ... it's that those sons of bitches have so many good people totally snowed and actually praying for them."

Sometimes I wish it were in my nature to be that kindhearted myself, but then I wake up and accept that some of us are Just Not Nice! I'll continue to try to wake more folks up to the deceptions, but I ain't gotta like it!:-)(Army Joke buried in there)

The whole Enron/Harken/Iran Contra/Mena/S&L Wipeout/ad nauseum...... sequences and history that have Bush,Mob,Clinton, written all thru them cause me to accept that most people ARE truly Insane ---- They keep repeating an act (electing the same players) but yet expect a different result.

[Dane]

Ahem, please take a look at reply #44.

[mancini]

Because he is a Deciever.

a wolf

[mancini]

The apologists will say it is pragmatism when really is it a wolf on the prowl.

[rdavis84]

"Ahem reply #27. Aw, you all can't have your bash Bush bash."

Ahem, And Our CONTROL over how the funds are spent is thru What Means?

Ahem, are they gonna use Arthur Anderson's Primer on Strict Accountability as their Guide?

[Dane]

Ahem, reply #27.

[Lizavetta]

Please take a moment & see the bills passed by GW & tell me if you can call him conservative. This man triangulates better than Bubba. Did you hear him today in Penn. It's what is good for our country, not for our political party. So he signs a bill for overseas funding including abortions, he puts another 8 Billion above the approx 13 to the rathole of the public schools, WANTS TO INCREASE MONEY FOR FOOD STAMPS TO ILLEGALS. And you people here at what is supposed to be a conservative site lap this guy up like the second coming. And RUSHBO speaks out that we are becoming MORE conservative. WAKE UP!

Yes...yes...that may be true....but he's just so gosh darn charming and cuuuuuuuuuuute.

And that is all that counts for most people these days.

[Dane]

Ahem, And Our CONTROL over how the funds are spent is thru What Means?

Ahem, try to vote out the Jim Jeffords and Tommy Dashcle's of the world and you wouldn't see the increase.

[sinkspur]

People wonder why America is hated. This kind of cr*p is why.

Joining the Muslies?

[Askel5]

And Henry Kissinger is in what foreign policy position in the Bush administration?

Lol ... I'm so glad you asked. Aside from his trips to Austin to school Bush, Kissinger was in the chorus line with Scowcroft, Schultze and eye-candy Rice on May 23, 2000 as Xiao Bushi announced indeed he could "do" foreing policy.

I realize Rice gets a lot of the press for her "body blocks" and other bits of skillful diplomacy ... I realize they find her useful for the occasional song and dance (as with the soft-shoe she did in Texas to take the focus off the fact Putin stiffed Bush and left him without a signed agreement or even a friendly "counterpart" face for the final conference) ... but some of us don't believe everything we read in the press just because the left-wing media's sitting in the GOP's lap these days.

"Today, I am here with some of our nation’s leading [Republican] statesmen and defense experts [former Secretaries of State Henry Kissinger and George Schultz, former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, former National Security Advisor Brent Scowcroft, and former Chair of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Colin Powell]. And there is broad agreement that our nation needs a new approach to nuclear security that matches a new era.

Aw ... check it out ... Condi didn't even rate a mention in his opening line. Go figure.

"And Henry Kissinger is in what foreign policy position in the Bush administration?"

None, Officially.

But he rides the same planes as jr. :-)

Ahem, try to vote out the Jim Jeffords and Tommy Dashcle's of the world and you wouldn't see the increase.

how about a president who vetoes a bill, until the damned parts are ommitted, or his veto is overridden!

[Lizavetta]

It does to me. You folks have got to wake up some day and see that the Repubs and the Dems are nothing more than a Good Cop / Bad Cop smoke and mirrors game, and they have been for decades.

You must have read Walter Karp's "Indispensable Enemies" somewhere along the line. He says exactly the same thing. This is why true reformers get shot in the ass BY THEIR OWN PARTY. The Democrats would rather see a status quo Republican win an election than a reform Democrat who would truly change things for the better, and the same goes for the Republicans. All this "fighting" is strictly for public consumption, to make us feel like somebody's on our side.

[rdavis84]

Lizavetta meet Mancini.

Mancini meet Lizavetta.

I hear Mancini keeps Sweaty Pictures of Jr. :-)

[DittoJed2]

Look at reply #27. They CAN'T use the funds for abortions overseas. His executive order from the beginning of his administration forbids it.
