Margaret Sanger: old-skool eugenicist, Obama’s hero
Dawn Eden found an archived interview of Planned Parenthood founder and eugenicist Margaret Sanger from 1957, after she’s supposed to have mellowed. Hardly. Here’s a little drop of her poison:
SANGER: I think the greatest sin in the world is bringing children into the world–that have disease from their parents, that have no chance in the world to be a human being practically. Delinquents, prisoners, all sorts of things just marked when they’re born. That to me is the greatest sin — that people can — can commit.
It’s a little too long for me to recommend the whole video, plus there’s no sound and you can’t click around and check your e-mail while she’s blabbing or you’ll miss the subtitles. [UPDATE--I restarted Firefox and now the audio works fine,so never mind.] But there’s a transcript if you’d like to look over that.
Sanger and the organization she founded, Planned Parenthood, may be hideous racists, but let’s face it: they’re pikers. The real apotheosis of their philosophy was realized by Sir Hugo Drax and his Moonraker project:
Obsessed with the domination of the globe and indeed outer space, Drax selects a small army of the “finest” humans on earth. Being the head of huge company that manufactures space shuttles and other space exploration equipment, he uses his resources to build a huge space station to temporarily house the model humans of his master race. In a sick and twisted plot, Drax’ scientists have developed a biological weapon that to be deployed from space, to wipe out human civilization, while his master race was lives and breeds on the space station. Drax expects 100% loyalty from the selected few and truly sees himself as a God – holding the fate of the human race in his hands.
…By the world, he is seen as a great businessman, a philanthropist and a genius. To Bond, he is a madman whose over-inflated ego now threatens the world.
None of this messing about with federal funding like Planned Parenthood–no propaganda cartoons or birth control giveaways: through private-sector ingenuity (satellite-launched nerve gas ), Drax has found away to eliminate all unwanted pregnancies.
Okay, enough fooling around. Why is this important now (besides the federal funding and 1.3 million annual abortied babies)?
Because, as Dawn reminds us in her post, the Lightworker has a thing for Margaret Sanger.
More about her awful legacy here.
And remember, your tax dollars are funding that legacy.

We’re well on our way to fulfilling Sanger’s sick vision of the world, what with genetic testing for diseases that lead to the aborting of children with Down’s Syndrome and other disabilities. Additionally, more African-American children are killed every three days by abortion than died at the hands of the vile KKK throughout its history.
Pro-aborts should be so proud of the death and destruction they have caused. “Deeply personal issue”, my foot. They’re working to make Sanger’s sick, sad dream a hellish reality.
When I told my mother about the obscene profits that Planned Parenthood posted last year, she nearly swallowed her tongue with rage! My poor Mom–imagine how the old conservatives feel about this brave new world.
Obama is an abomination all wrapped up in CNN’s tinsel package.
It wont last. The media will not pick the next King, as bad as they want the role.
They couldn’t defeat Bush…and if the center doesn’t buy into OFlama’s hooey gooey swing to the middle with his rhetoric, he will get trounced.
How people can back federally subsidized abortions is beyond my understanding.
Bear1909 out.
She was just overwhelmed by BO not wanting his daughters to be punished with a baby that she just has to speak her mind.
This “could be” another club that Señorator Juan McAmnesty could whoop Obama with.
Highlight from the transcript:
ANNOUNCER: New Philip Morris, probably the best natural smoke you ever tasted, presents…(MUSIC)
ANNOUNCER: The Mike Wallace Interview.
No doubt. Talk about his voting against – and speaking out against – the Born Alive Act.
In case you’re unaware, Barack Obama voted against legislation that required doctors to treat a baby born alive after a late-term abortion. In other words, he voted for infanticide. The children who survived these abortions were often left to die, alone, in back rooms, etc. at the facilities where the abortion was performed.
No civilized society should allow that to happen.
But I know people will make excuses, hem and haw about “choice” and “women’s health”, etc. It’s a shame.
Well. I tend to agree that it *is* wrong to make children you won’t bother to raise yourself, but other than imprisoning women convicted of abuse/neglect/infanticide until menopause without conjugal visits (which doesn’t stop the crime against the firstborn, or crime by fathers/mom’s boyfriend), I’m not sure how a free society can compel assholes to keep their pants on.
Wow, that transcript was a LONG time ago.
The amount of money the taxpayers pay for stuff like this is overwhelming. We pay for raza, acorn, pbs, cair, the list is so long it boggles the mind. I just hope I live long enough for the citizens in America who are fed up to have a ‘Boston tea party’. This might get me banned.
L
Liberals are not only self-ists, they are selfish. This is news?
Their “feelings” are the most important thing in the universe, and they are willing to throw anyone and anything in the universe into the ovens if it just makes the “bad feelings go away.”
Consider:
More people are saved by defending themselves with firearms than are killed by gun accidents. That doesn’t matter to a liberal. They’re “afraid” of guns, so let those people die.
The poor are struggling mightily to keep up with rising energy costs. Don’t matter to liberals – they “feel sorry” for the fish and musk ox that might be rendered homeless (or not) if we drill in ANWR and the Gulf. So let those people starve and freeze.
All of the data we have right now say that there has been no global warming for 10 years, and that things appear to be cooling off. Don’t tell that to a liberal… they “feel” that things are worse, so d@mn the economy.
And, of course, there ain’t no way you can impose upon THEM if they accidentally get pregnant. No siree. Personal accountability doesn’t FEEL good, so there’s no way a liberal will ever support it.
GRIND those babies up. They’ll just call them something other than babies…
otherwise they might FEEL bad…
The “eugenics” or good genes movement has enjoyed a resurgence given the last few decades increase in genetics research and “advancements”. The movement has a long and sordid history in the US and Europe- and it didn’t begin with Hitler’s Nazi paradigm.
The US exported it’s delivery system for eugenics to Uncle Adolf with technical assistance from the USDA Cooperative Extension Service out of Vermont in the early 30s. It was the USDA CES that Lincoln signed into law in 1861 by the Morrill Act, which instituted the federal Land Grant University system in each state. The purpose was to measure every acre, count the number of people and Indians, and teach people how to feed themselves as the US expanded westward. One other mission of the USDA Extension Service was to sterilize Indian women, while breeding the rest of us out of existence with measures of “blood quantum”.
Hitler idolized the US’ mechanical efficiency of making “living room” by exterminating Indians on the way west. His admiration for the eugenics program was extolled in his “Mein Kampf”.
Sanger was one of the folks who stood on the shoulders of “giants” in the field of eugenics, such as one of the mainstays of the American Eugenics Society (based in Vermont), Dr. Henry Perkins (i may have his first name wrong).
The “pro-choice” movement and the Roe v Wade crowd is either oblivious to the history of their fetish for in-vitro killing, or compliant with the values of a movement that has never gone away, experiencing re-births throughout different political eras and social expediencies.
It is no surprise that the vapid and opportunistic Barack Obama would back this history of evil and murderous relativism. He is a drug addicted
know nothing who is not fully in possession of a moral code that chooses life.
The fetuses “they” cannot abort, they raise in a fog of psychotropic drugs to neuter them.
(Sigh) People like that make me feel ashamed to be human.
Seeing as Hitler chose Sanger as one of his ‘ideals’ and used her outline for his ‘master race’ outline—her Planned Parenthood ‘off spring’ must be of the same -evil thread–
Bless me–it ISSSS
CS LFLife
Wait, a eugenicist??? Isn’t BHO concerned about eugenicists since Jessy wanted to make him a eugenic?
a EUNUCH perhaps.
A who?
a man wit no nads.
but he’s already a lib?
Barry really has no idea what he is doing to others, does he?
Or does he just not give a damn.
Good job, MM! Don’t ever let up on this sick twist, racist death merchant which the left loves to idolize.
Facts from AGI – Alan Guttmacher Institute (Planned Parenthood) & CDC – Centers for Disease Control:
~40+ MILLION ABORTIONS SINCE 1973 or 4,000 each day.
~Risk to maternal health: 2.8%; Risk to fetal health: 3.3%; Rape or incest: 2.1%
~The vast majority of all abortions, (92%), are done for birth control!
~67% of abortions are from women who have never been married (how’s that sex revolution thang workin’ out for ya?).
~The abortion rate is highest for those women aged 18 to 19 (how’s that sex ed./condoms in school thang workin’ out for ya?).
~African-American women are more than 3 times as likely to have an abortion, and Hispanic women are 2.5 times as likely.
Look to your left & tell me again who the race pimps & eugenic bigots are in this world.
Nice post.. I had a ‘What the h–’ moment there with the ‘Moonraker’ and Hugo Drax..
It’s a non-profit. That money goes straight back to their budget. The budget in which 97% of the money is dedicated to mammograms, non-abortive birth control, sex education and OBGYN services. Furthermore, any federal money given to PP is barred from going towards anything related to abortion.
Sanger’s views are horrible. So were Henry Ford’s. Yet no one calls my dad an anti-Semite for driving a Taurus.
Since teen pregnancy rates are much lower in places with comprehensive sex ed and access to birth control while not increasing the teen sex rate, I’d say that it’s going quite well thank you very much.
Trite as ever.
ot-
Just heard Odumbo give his reasoning for wind energy not the answer, ” it’s not always windy” this dipstick would serve himself well if he or his clones did a tad bit of research and realize the studies made on places for wind farms IS 80 TO 90% WINDY ALL THE TIME.
HOW ANYONE CAN BUY INTO THIS TOOLS BOLOGNA IS MIND BOGGLING.
Rusty have a link for that info? oh wait it will come from planet zohtron.
I’m sure the butcher’s bill in destroyed human life thanks to the taxpayer subsidized Planned Parenthood make the murders performed by despotic regimes of Hitler and Stalin pale in comparison. Eugenicist and those that support them are the servants of pure evil. The Obamessiah has hitched his wagon to some really creepy people foreshadowing even more of the damage when can expect should this empty suit win in November.
Great. And here are her thoughts which i hope the Obamas read (from the link given above)
“The mass of significant Negroes,” read the project’s report, “still breed carelessly and disastrously, with the result that the increase among Negroes…is [in] that portion of the population least intelligent and fit.”
“We do not want word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population, and the minister is the man who can straighten out that idea if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members.”
So Obama, you show up at Planned Parenthood for a speech and prove what a tool you are.
Funny…missed the part where Henry Ford advocated sticking scissors in babies’ brains or ripping them limb-from-limb in the name of “choice.”
It’s ironic that Obama supports Sanger’s views.
According to those views, Obama would have been on her “hit list”.
I kind of crack up that people think that teens use contraception because of classes. I personally think it’s hit and miss due to what I witnessed in school with the “comprehensive” condom classes we had. What a joke. Adults think these classes prevent pregnancies when really they are clueless that many of the teens sat back and laughed and still ridiculed those who used contraception. Teens think (and always have thought due to that stage in life) they are invincible..got a class for that? What you may think is logical is thwarted by good ole teen hormones interfering with the logical part of the brain. Adults need to buy a clue
.
I doubt that mccain will seize on this opportunity just like he passed up the opportunity to tag obama with the life mentor god damn america minister.
DraxLord God Gore, expects 100% loyalty from the selected few and truly sees himself as a Deity – holding the fate of the human race in his hands.…By the world, he is seen as a great businessman, a philanthropist and a genius. To Bond, he is a madman whose over-inflated ego now threatens the world.
Give Al a Tux and an umbrella and he becomes the arch villain worthy of any destroy the world plot.
haha rusty you crack me up with your posts. Just because something is non profit doesn’t mean it doesn’t make money to put back into it’s machine to churn out more profit for itself and give itself raises and do all sorts of stuff with that money. You are a bit naive on what non profits can do with money they make.
Rusty is naive and ignorant.
cRusty the cLown.
The global elite are fond of eugenics. The idea of purging those of lower genetic material, thus purifying the intellectual pool, has a long history among the Illuminati. Today, our political leadership (mostly libs) and the NWO types are prattling on and on about how population is placing a strain on the earth and that something must be done. I’m not so quick to give conservatives a pass on this but the libs are definitely more inclined to eliminate people for philosophical reasons. The conservatives are inclined more by reasons of politic.
Be kinder to yourself, John.
Though I’m sure he’s embarrassed (or worse) about it don’t be so quick to tie your verbal nooses around the neck of the Lightworker for his gracious words toward Sanger and her organization. An organization founded for the purpose of the murder of black babies, although PP has now morphed into something worse.
Our elected government is following the same path in thanking and praising the enemy, albeit re oil:
By actually thanking the Arabs for not tightening the oil noose any tighter by their refusal to pump more oil, but at least they won’t be pumping any less. And by their backing of Iran by their threats of not making up for any oil market deficits that may be brought on by an Iranian/US/Israeli war.
And fearfully bowing to the PC edicts of the greenies by their insisting on no more drilling even though within the boundaries of America (including offshore) has been found more oil than is in all of the Middle East, and no more oil refining on US soil. Then praising them for the great job their doing for the nation.
Yeah, $5/gallon (and still climbing) gas. And causing, by extension, the cost of everything else to rise.
And as you said earlier, I’ll bet he didn’t let his son just lay in a dark room waiting for him to die either. I think ole Vlad Dracula would be proud of the abortion folks. I don’t think even he impaled babies.
I watched this video a few days ago when a link to it turned up in the comments section at LaShawn Barber’s blog.
There is an eerie synergy between Mike Wallace shilling for Phillip Morris, and Margaret Sanger shilling for Satan.
I wonder, has Wallace ever apologized for all the misery his cigarette-plugging probably caused?
I find it interesting that the private Christian University I attended taught that Sanger was a Gd of reproductive change. They always mentioned her penchant for handing out condoms but never anything else. I don’t have to wonder what would have happened to my grades if I had asked about her other activities.
High-functional autism runs in my family-my late father,me, my son-as do eating disorders(exercise bulimia in my case).
Because of the hereditary “defects” me and mine have we should have never been born?
Whatever.
Sanger can continue to rot-along with those that continue to support her “vision”
-the annoying little twerp in Chicago
Did you miss where he shilled for a regime responsible for the murder (and real murder, not abortion “murder”) of 20 million people? Did you miss him being awarded with the highest honor Nazi Germany gave foreigners? Or did you miss where he published a newspaper and printed a series of articles called “The International Jew: the World’s Foremost Problem.”
And really, who cares? Buying a Ford doesn’t make you an anti-semite. And supporting PP, like I do, doesn’t make you a supporter of eugenics.
Rusty said:
You already know the organization’s origins, and that it cannot dispell them, yet you are still funding their murder program which is not something Planned Parenthood does on the side as did Henry Ford did with his anti-semitism which he had every right believe (unfortunately) in his private life.
Rusty you are getting your argument into an apples and oranges mode very quickly.
You say abortion is horrible, and yet you willingly fund PP-their operating budget- with your support of them.
Rusty you are talking out of both sides of your mouth on this issue.
I support this group
http://www.thomasmore.org/qry/page.taf?id=63&_function=detail&sbtblct_uid1=427&month=06&year=2008
as well as LFL –
PP has LOTS of $$$$$$$
The shorter version:
http://www.thomasmore.org/default-sb_thomasmore.html?6742516
I wonder if the Obama mama would have, had it been legal at the time, aborted little B. Hussein? Probably, because she abandoned him to her mother so she could futher her education and exploits. That black preacher was right, from trash comes trash.
Thomas More got a POSITIVE PRO-LIFE judgement from the ninth circuit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!that is nearly impossible!!!!!WOW
http://www.thomasmore.org/qry/page.taf?id=18&_function=detail&sbtblct_uid1=433&month=07&year=2008
Eugenics was a fad at the time. Wasnt this great country founded in racism and slavery? Both were popular at the time. who cares, its the past, as long as its not still going on.
Rusty, hit that “hideous racists” link up there and give it some thought. This is an organization that still takes money earmarked for abortions for black babies.
Me either. She was a hero.
Rusty – Ford is dead, and so are his beliefs. Ford Motor Co. no longer supports his vile attitudes.
Planned Parenthood carries out Sanger’s vision every single day.
Anyone who supports abortion is contributing to that vision, whether or not they think they are.
I care. I care immensely.
And – for those of you that are sensitive – forgive what I’m about to quote and don’t read on if you can’t handle it.
Rusty, this is what you support:
Describing a legal abortion procedure, done in the 2nd trimester. You know, when a baby looks like this (Week 12) and develops to this (Week 24).
There is *no* excuse whatsoever that justifies those abhorrent procedures.
For those of you who are pro-life, Priests for Life is engaging in a great – but heart-wrenching campaign called “Is This What You Mean?” Go to their website for very startling, real information about what abortion *really* is. It isn’t for the sensitive, but it proves abortion is not as painless or inconsequential as getting your nails done.
Human Purification is not something that God intended. This was a disturbed women that in the presence of God will realize her misguided view of human nature and God’s will, the fact that she believes that the diseased, infirm and defective humans should not enter God’s world because we are not God and can not know what God’s thought’s are and the thought that homosexuality is innate was mentally deficient from it’s inception. How many great men and women have been destroyed because of one women’s crusade against traditional Christianity.
Call it what it is Ethnic Cleansing.
Yeah, right. And I’m sure the “Brown Shirt kids” in Nazi Germany probably had that same sort of flippant retort when reproached by some sane adult who tried to guide them from their blind allegiance to a fellowship of death and hatred.
It’s the next best thing!
I wasn’t aware that Ford was an ideology.
Planned Parenthood is, and it’s a noxious one.
Rusty, how do you distinguish between the two?
Rusty said:
Right rusty who cares?
God bless the selfless troll. He altruistically defends the “right” of teens to have consequence-free (he hopes with him) sex. Give him five years and he’ll be walking past middle schools in nothing but a trench coat.
Better yet, give him fifteen to life.
As for cubbiegal on post #41, as a Chicagoan (actually suburbanite, I escaped for King Dickie’s court), I too am ashamed of Obama as my senator.
In Planned Infanticide’s dream world will they decide who is genetically and socially permitted to reproduce? Would the Kennedy’s qualify? Hmmmm
Actually ChicagoRobb,we live near Aurora but are moving to the City in August.
Sooo what closet serves as the meeting room for the Chicago GOP.
siiiiigh.
CubbieGirl, You and yours will get your own voting booth in the Primary Season. I used to live in Rogers Park (for non-chicagoans, the socialist party used to out poll the GOP in this area)and I would show up to the primary and always have my little in the corner-far in the corner
Merely the layers of silky-smooth pearl designed to cover that prickly grain of sand known as abortion.
They [PP] are not the only ones to provide these services, and I doubt they truly care whether they are able to provide them or not; their primary focus was, is, and always will be to provide abortion mainly to minority women.
I had to read Sanger’s (very hard to find) autobiography when I was in undergrad. It was very telling when she repeatedly referred to the poor as the “weeds in society,” and about the importance of placing her birth control clinics in strategic locations to take care of these “weeds.”
C’mon talk radio, push this one hard! I want to hear Obama say, “This isn’t the Margaret Sanger I knew twenty years ago.”
It starts with an abortion here, and one there. Then there’s “Roe vs Wade”. Now we have tests to determine the functionality of the unborn child and whether to abort or not. Government, in the meantime, passes more socialized medicine policies. Soon there is universal care. Then the little “amendments” are passed. “We can’t afford to take care of ‘sick’ babies”. One day, the American public will turn around to see all fetuses examined for possible health problems. Many will require abortion, as law. Many will be pleased with the “savings”, reacting against conservatives by yelling, “How dare you bring such a child into this world!” And, the Left will march on…..
Keep in mind that there are several factions supporting unrestricted abortion. The eugenicists are but one. Others are feminazis, irresponsible men who want to pay off their mistresses/girlfriends when they impregnate them and the greens/zero-population-growthers.
Drax was also a cheat at cards. Just to be sure that I don’t associate with that sort, Margaret Sanger and Chocolate Jesus are both officially OUT of my bridge club!
Sanger didn’t act in a vacuum. The whole eugenics movement was very popular in this country, and around the world. It derived its legitimacy from the theory of evolution, and the man who coined the term ‘eugenics’ Galton, Darwin’s cousin. Darwin was a eugenicist:
“At some future period, not very distant as measured by centuries, the civilised races of man will almost certainly exterminate, and replace, the savage races throughout the world. At the same time the anthropomorphous apes, as Professor Schaaffhausen has remarked, will no doubt be exterminated. The break between man and his nearest allies will then be wider, for it will intervene between man in a more civilized state, as we may hope, even than the Caucasian, and some ape as low as a baboon, instead of as now between the negro or Australian and the gorilla.” (Darwin, Charles R. [English naturalist and founder of the modern theory of evolution], “The Descent of Man and Selection in Relation to Sex,” [1871], John Murray: London, Second Edition, 1922, reprint, pp.241-242
and it was very fashionable in left-wing circles…and we see the results of that today.
Aren’t liberal organizations great? PP, ACLU, etc etc.
But what if we found that the liberal gene could be identified in the womb… hmmmmmmm?
Planned Parenthood taking donations from peoplke who want to kill black fetuses was horrible and unacceptable. The directors of those branches and the employees in question should have been let go.
PP is an ideology. But noxious? No organization has actively prevented more abortions than PP. And the efforts they make on behalf of women in financial trouble has saved countless live from breast and cervical cancer.
These women in financial straits are more likely to be minorities. If you’re a racist eugenicist giving black women mammograms, then you’re doing it wrong.
How so? By providing contraceptives, many of which are abortifacients???
Get real, Rusty, your idiocy is showing.
and you think this is just an isolated incident? oh please, they faithfully carry out the racist eugenicist vision of their founder.
are you really that naive, or just a shill for every left-wing cause around? do you get paid per post?
Sorry, where is the Obama connection here, aside from his general pro-choice position? I agree that most of the supporters of Roe and PP have no understanding of the origins of the movement, but I couldn’t find the explicit connection between Obama and Singer.
I have Faith that Margaret Sanger, Planned Parenthood and their bloody legacy will, in the end, be reviled by mankind.
Proof please. (Planet Zohtron data not acceptable.)
Also, how does one prove that lives have been saved from breast and cervical cancer? Does this get reported by patients who: 1) went to PP and didn’t get bc or cc *yet*? or 2) went to PP and then contracted the diseases and were “cured”?
What are you talking about, cRusty?
Perhaps you should stick to things you know something about such as mayonnaise or how to produce gerbil cage shavings in a more environmentally friendly manner.
You’ve shared so brilliantly on any number of irrelevant topics on here over the past year. Won’t you just stick to the knitting for the benefit of all?
Now go finish tacking the glow stars to the ceiling in your bedroom above your bunkbeds.
Eugenics was a logical outcome of the philosophy embodied by Darwinism. You take the lesser fit, and make sure they never breed, thus advancing the race by speeding up evolution.
The part where this all falls apart, ironically, is that (should you believe in evolution) mutations will always appear at first very gradually, and will appear grotesque to the rest of the population.
To whit: who is not to say that Down’s syndrom is not a mutation seeking to evolve the human race to a particular end? Sure, these people are physically and mentally impaired, but I’d guess that were they in our position, our common ancestors could think that humans were not hardy enough to take down mammoths and survive saber toothed tigers. Should we then have not survived?
What if a defective mutation is a waystation to something higher? Who are we to interfere?
Of course, I’m one of those who believes in evolution, and that it’s God experimenting towards an ultimate goal. Who is to say he’s reached it? Sanger? You? Me? Maybe God is experimenting, and we should get the hell out of the way. Anyway, that’s the philosophical side of it.
The gut-check side of it is…no human being should be deprived of life by another human being. Spare me the counter argument against the death penalty; those people had free choice when they committed their crime. An unborn child does not have that choice.
But ask anyone who is 8 years or older, just ask them! What would they think of their parents if they had been aborted? Sure, the aborted babies are not at the stage where they could reasonably choose…but if you extrapolate it to any living being; would you be happier if you’d been aborted?
And if not…then you have the choice to commit suicide…so what’s wrong with giving you the chance until you’re old enough to MAKE that choice?
I’m not surprised by any of Sanger’s beliefs. Because of my background in history, one of my specialties is Women’s History. Sanger’s beliefs are well-known among Women’s History scholars. Unfortunately, the ignorant masses have no clue how abortion started and where it will end.
It’s also interesting how the liberals and the media are painting Obummer as some kind of “family man.” What with his speech to black churches about how black men need to take responsibility for the bastards (out-of-wedlock babies) they leave behind when commitment seems too “hard” for them. Yet, this is the same man who didn’t support the Born Alive Act and who supports abortion. Go figure.
No, we’re a country full of liberal, lazy, moronic nitwits who have sex first but don’t plan accordingly. We live in a country where saving yourself for marriage or being a virgin is passe and looked down on. No, if a woman has careless sex and then gets pregnant, she can have an abortion to make her “little mistake” go away. That way, you don’t have to think about the consequences of thoughtless behavior… just make the innocent baby pay for your actions.
As a 33 year old woman, I think this is some scary stuff. To be lectured by the likes of Rusty about my body is a hoot. It’s amazing that even liberal women proclaim that they fought for my right over my body. Yet, these are the same beknighted souls who will say if your baby has a genetic disease or is sick, “just get rid of it because it will make your life more complicated, troublesome, or sad.” Or, if you keep your sick, “defective” baby (their words), then their health care costs will go up.
Yes, liberals, let’s not complicate life.
Isn’t that a stereotype? What’s more, just who are these women in “financial straights” and why on earth, if their plight is so bleak, are they allowing themselves to get pregnant? Surely you aren’t insinuating PP is providing abortions to underage girls – they’re the only ones I can think of who fit your criteria, and it isn’t like it would be anything PP has already been accused of doing.
If we can get him away from LaRaza for a few hours. If.
Your humor has been sorely missed!
Hugo Drax’s bomb that kills humans without killing any other life forms strikes me as the sort of weapon that the Unabomber wing of radical environmentalism would love to get its hands on.
Go back up and re-read the article. Click on the hot links provided, particularly the one referring to the “Lightworker”.
I’m sure Moloch is very proud of Ms. Sanger.
This community says that they oppose eugenics, abortion, and Planned Parenthood.
And yet people here say absolutely NOTHING when a commentator who “hates Mexicans in general” advocates deporting US citizens on the basis of their ethnicity, obsesses about Mexicans displacing whites here in America, and offers up “the Chinese solution” as an effective example of population control and economic managment.
Not ONE person here other than myself stepped forward to state that they think that ideas like this are WRONG.
A “hated” moderate speaks out against evil here, and all the self described “true conservatives” who claim to have the moral high ground are as silent as stones.
The hypocrisy here at MM is stunning.
but as the all-knowing, all-caring, all-seeing moderate you cannot bring yourself to denounce margaret sanger and what she has done. no surprise there.
but your outrage is directed at a supposed poster on a message board, whom you allege to have posted something you don’t like.
In other words, a comment outrages you, but the deaths of millions of babies, and the racist, eugenicist drive behind those deaths, doesn’t trouble you at all.
my, how moderate of you…check the mirror for hypocrisy

Oh, for heavens sake.
Did you even bother to read what I wrote, right4life, or did you just give a kneejerk response? Wake up!
You missed the part where I voiced opposition to anyone who would think that the Chinese solution to population control (forced and coerced abortion and sterilization, and murder of infants), is a good idea.
The person who should be the recipient of your vitriol is the person who floated that idea in the first place, not me. Not some “supposed poster” on a message board who “allegedly” posted something repulsive, but a frequent contributor to these discussions. You want the link? Here.
I’m not an enemy here, I’m trying to wake people up.
I may be a Moderate, but I’m vehemently opposed to abortion on demand, my life was nearly destroyed by it years ago. I’m also opposed to anything that even smacks of population control and eugenics.
Are you a conservative Christian? Then go hunting for the people here at MM who are saying and doing and proposing things that give real conservatives a black eye. Direct your anger at people here at MM who are actually deserving of it. Those who see no problem with the various techniques of “population control” that are used for the purposes of racial purification and reducing the populations of ethnicities that they don’t like.
There are people here who espouse these ideas and they do nothing to hide it. The problem here at MM is clueless, apathetic conservatives who refuse to see what is right in front of their own eyes.
I’ve seen all of those ideas floated here. Other ideas that I’ve seen expressed are limiting immigration to only the “best and brightest” and denying citzenship to anyone who isn’t intelligent enough to deserve it… forbidding certain ethnic groups to speak in their mother tongue while demanding that they speak only the language of white Europeans, mass deportation of Mexicans including those who are US citizens, and far worse.
Do yourself a favor, learn to check your kneejerk hatred of moderates at the door… we’re not the enemy.
right4life:
You’ve set up a strawman there, and your accusation is quite unfair. I think you know very well that IrishRose is against all those things you listed.
Don’t sink to dishonesty in your pettiness.
you miss the part where this is not about the mexicans at all. you have to bring in a strawman issue into this. and to be honest, the chinese abortion isn’t the same as the racist, eugenicist program of planned parenthood. the chinese are killing chinese to reduce the population. While its wrong, and abhorent, its not the same as the planned parenthood agenda of killing those of the wrong color. to compare the two is apples and organges…why would you bring in some perceived injustice to the mexicans in a thread about abortion, and eugenics?
and from your thread, you post things like this:
tell me, are you a la raza type mexican racist? what would you say about someone who said this about mexicans? I’m sure you would scream racism.
as I scan the thread, you are quick to accuse others of racism, but you seem to be just as racist. but as Orwell said, some pigs are more equal than others…
this is another quote from your other thread:
fixed it up a little for you.
then why can’t you just state that opposition without trying to bring up false charges of racism? why bring up the immigration issue in a thread that has nothing to do with it??
another quote of yours:
you should get off the internet, and take a break from this site. your blood pressure must be in bad shape! seriously. basically in that other thread, anyone who dares mention the bad effects of illegal, or even legal, immigration is a racist, fascist pig..yadayadadydad…pathetic.
well calling people racists, fascists, etc for daring to disagree with open borders does give those who say such things a black eye. its the typical playbook of the radical left.
and what is wrong with that? we do want the best and brightest, not the criminals and insane as Castro pawned off to us in the mariel boat lift. oh but to you thats ‘racist’ uh huh. its not ‘moral’ to open up our borders, and ask our citizens to pay for everyone who wants to come here…oh and everyone can’t…the zimbabweans can’t just walk across the border like the mexicans…bet you would sing a different song if they could.
this is just a lie. but I’ve noticed the libs have to lie to make a point. the official language of this country should be english. no one is trying to stop anyone from speaking spanish, or any other language at home, but we should have to change our national language because the mexicans, or anyone else, wants us to. This is america, we speak english, learn it, and speak it. and we should not ‘accomodate’ anyone who cannot. the onus is on the immigrants to adopt our culture, not for us to adopt theirs.
and what is wrong with the language of ‘white europeans’? you use that term like an epitath, sounds like you are the hate-filled racist to me.
this would be a good thing to deport illegal aliens, no matter the nationality. whats wrong with it? Eisenhower did it in the 1950s, and it solved our illegal immigration problems for decades. I think we should treat the mexican illegals like the mexicans treat illegals, don’t you?
you should try checking your kneejerk hatred of white europeans
oh on the contrary, her response, and link to that other thread, tells me I was correct. maybe she can’t denounce the racists philosphy of planned parenthood is because of her racism towards those not of la raza…
but we should NOThave to change our national language because the mexicans, or anyone else, wants us to
sorry.
you know rose, I checked the thread about Memin Pinguin, and I thought sure I’d see you there denouncing the racism of that vile cartoon…but no, you didn’t post there, why is that?
you are quick to charge racism against white europeans when it comes to mexicans, but not a peep when it comes to mexican racism against blacks…hmmmmmm
why am I not surprised?
I can’t really see Jesse Jackson shaking down a Mexican comic book company.
