DeLay: Illegal immigrants fill jobs that aborted babies can't
Tom DeLay tells College Republicans that abortion, illegal immigration are linked
Michael Roston
Published: Wednesday July 18, 2007

Former Republican Majority Leader Tom DeLay told a gathering of College Republicans that a link exists between legal abortion and illegal immigration in America. The remarks were included in a video produced by writer Max Blumenthal and posted at The Huffington Post.

"I contend affects you in immigration," DeLay told the Washington-area gathering. "If we had those 40 million children that were killed over the last 30 years, we wouldn't need the illegal immigrants to fill the jobs that they are doing today. Think about it."

Blumenthal was later apparently forcibly escorted out of the conference by College Republican staff.

DeLay is currently under indictment for money laundering and conspiracy charges in Texas.

4. So we should have kids to help depress real wages?
Is this where he's going with his observation? We could be creating our own underclass if only we'd make more babies? He's not only corrupt, but kinda dumb, too.

8. I've seen that arguement in LTTEs in my local rag. It must be spread by
some RW organization. Yessiree, if those 40 million children (who could be well into their 30's by now) were out there all our troubles would be over! None who say this have the brains to look at the 'flip side'. How many of those 40 mil would be in prison? How many of those 40 mil would be on welfare? How many of those 40 mil would have caused us to finance more schools and medical emergency care? How many of those 40 mil would be with the other 45 million without health insurance? And how many of those 40 million would be working for minimum wage?

What ya think, Tom?

14. There is a link between cowardice and being a college republican
Well college republicans haven't been aborted, how come they ain't harvesting produce tom? And how ironic, what greater reason for abortions then today's young republicans?
