Racist pig repuke legislator in Louisiana wants to sterilize poor women
By Mark Waller
Worried that welfare costs are rising as the number of taxpayers declines, state Rep. John LaBruzzo, R-Metairie, said Tuesday he is studying a plan to pay poor women $1,000 to have their Fallopian tubes tied.

"We're on a train headed to the future and there's a bridge out," LaBruzzo said of what he suspects are dangerous demographic trends. "And nobody wants to talk about it."

LaBruzzo said he worries that people receiving government aid such as food stamps and publicly subsidized housing are reproducing at a faster rate than more affluent, better-educated people who presumably pay more tax revenue to the government. He said he is gathering statistics now.

"What I'm really studying is any and all possibilities that we can reduce the number of people that are going from generational welfare to generational welfare," he said.

3. Dear Pig repuke Legislator:
Let me get this straight.
Pay 100 poor women $100,000.00 to have their tubes tied = GOOD.
Give $100,000.00 to Planned Parenthood for education and condom distribution = BAD.

Sir, you are one fuked-up legislator.

5. $700 Billion in Corporate Welfare and he is complaining about poor people
receiving food stamps.

How about investing some of that money in programs to help those poor woman to get back on their feet and become self-sufficient? How about mental health programs? Drug treatment programs? Job training?

Those fuckers are cutting out essential programs to help to most needy and give all the money to their rich cronies.

11. Eugenics?! This was supposed to be gone by 1950...
Statements like this should get any elected official instantly recalled (if possible).

I'll raise $1,000 for this a-hole to have a vasectomy.

12. No, eugenics is still unfortunately alive
and cat-killer Frist is right in the middle of it. A few spins of a Googly-search will get you enough to horrify you off of lunch and probably supper, too. He's been quietly funding tubal ligations and hysterectomies for poor women (without their consent) for years. Take a few Googly-searches of connections of current and former senators with the Marianas, forced labor and forced sterilizations.

These are evil, evil people.

If there's any truth to "what goes around, comes back around" then there rightfully should be a companion group to SNYP (Spay or Neuter Your Pet). It should be called SNEER: Spay or Neuter Every Evil Republican.

After what they've done to other people against their will, one could almost be cold enough to say, "Well, sauce for the goose is gravy for the gander. Sew 'em up or cut 'em off as appropriate."

13. Wow... gonna have to research this, thanks.
It wouldn't surprise me.

Cat-killer Frist established his Mengele viciousness early in life.

"Records expose Young-Abramoff ties: MARIANA ISLANDS." ... " Rep. Don Young has said he never allowed convicted lobbyist Jack Abramoff to be an influential force over him in Congress." ... "But now a trove of old billing records from two of Abramoff's firms show that his team of lobbyists had more than 120 contacts with Young's personal and committee staffs over 25 months, including at least 10 with Young himself." ... "The available records cover a single Abramoff client, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, a U.S. territory in the Pacific that Young oversaw when he chaired the House Resources Committee from 1995 to 2001." ... "The records show that one of the looming concerns of Abramoff and his fellow lobbyists at the time was a bill introduced by Young's fellow Alaskan, Sen. Frank Murkowski, to reform labor and immigration practices feeding the island's notorious Chinese-owned sweatshops. In 2000, Murkowski's bill passed the Senate unanimously, but Young stopped it cold in his committee, refusing to hold even a hearing." ... "Investigations by the government, media and human rights groups uncovered widespread abuses in the garment industry and among sex workers there starting in the mid-1990s, but Young asserted those investigations were bogus." ... "As a member of Young's Resources Committee, Schaffer took a free trip to the Mariana Islands arranged by Abramoff's law firm, then played a central role in a 1989 committee hearing investigating Interior department officials in the Clinton administration who were trying to rein in the Saipan government ." ... "A growing number of reports spoke of near slave-labor conditions, with workers kept in sealed compounds, required to work seven days a week without overtime, and sometimes getting no paycheck at all. There were widespread reports of women coerced into getting abortions to keep their jobs. Some women hired abroad found themselves working not in garment factories at all, but sex clubs." -By Richard Mauer -ADN.com


Here's something else that would make the fundigelicals' heads explode. It's more of a history, but their dear "guuuuuuuuuud kreeeeschyin" heroes are arse deep in contraception -- for brown people, that is. You'll also recognize the same Bilderberger names that headed us into this financial mess, too.

Funny idnit. Pillagement and war, evil personified, waving a Bible.

Another long read just on Frist, but it's an insight (with linkies) into how repukes with their twisted sense of entitlement, bizarre idea of (white) racial noblesse and absolute vicious, bitter hatred of all that is non-rich and non-white, to the point of casual, not-so-much-as-a-second-thought extermination.

They aren't just batshit crazy. They're dangerous, vicious, and absolutely devoid of anything close to humanity.

And they're deep, deep into our government.
