Dumb and Dumber

Let's play "Who is the biggest idiot?"

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi thinks spending hundreds of millions of dollars on contraception will help the economy. WHAT!?!

Ok, let's give her the benefit of the doubt and have one of our "unbiased, hard-nosed" media guys ask her to explain herself. Here's the exchange:

GEORGE 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.

Did anyone see an explanation in there about how exactly spending hundreds of millions of dollars on contraception will "reduce costs"? Since George Stephanoploulos didn't ask the obvious follow up questions, I'll ask them. Ms. Pelosi, how exactly does it reduce costs? Even if it did "reduce costs", will it reduce costs more than the hundreds of millions of dollars you're spending to reduce those costs? You know what this sounds like to me...it sounds like driving from Houston to Amarillo to save $0.03 a gallon on gasoline.

The idiocy of the liberals just keeps spewing forth. Great stuff for my blog--not so good for the country.

Here's the reference article if you want to read it.

  2. Hey "Stumble-Osi"!! Why not just hand the money directly to our kids?

    If you can conceive that our kids, which are not using the 100(s) of contraceptives they each receive throughout their tenure in our school system to prevent a negatively life altering situation, will step up and do it in the hopes of saving our economy..... we have bigger problems than your money can fix. Ironically we do........ YOU!! Why not just hand the money directly to the kids? At least when their pre-marital sexual act is over, instead of having an unused contraceptive in their pocket, they will have some cash and may go stimulate something other than their own lustful desires.
