Speaker Pelosi was on meet the press this weekend and below is some of what she had to say...
STEPHANOPOULOS: Hundreds of millions of dollars to expand family planning services. How is that stimulus?
PELOSI: Well, the family planning services reduce cost. They reduce cost. The states are in terrible fiscal budget crises now and part of what we do for children's health, education and some of those elements are to help the states meet their financial needs. One of those - one of the initiatives you mentioned, the contraception, will reduce costs to the states and to the federal government.
STEPHANOPOULOS: So no apologies for that?
PELOSI: No apologies. No. we have to deal with the consequences of the downturn in our economy.
WOW - this is amazing. Actually I wish the Democrats well on their family planning endeavors. While none of this has any immediate stimulative effect, long term it will sure hurt the Democrat Party.
