Rep. Paul Broun, a Republican of Georgia and a physician, and Rep. Gwen Moore, a Democrat of Wisconsin, had a particularly tense exchange. Broun said, “We treat green turtle eggs better than we treat children in the womb.” He also argued that because most clinics are in ethnic neighborhoods “more black babies are killed” by Planned Parenthood.
Moore spoke next, countering: “I know all about black babies. I’ve had three of them. I had the first one at the ripe old age of 18.” Moore said that Republican public policy has “utter contempt for poor women and poor children.”

I love how stiff white Republicans only care about ethnic babies when they’re trying to overturn Roe vs. Wade. Otherwise, they hate that non-white babies are born in the US at all (“anchor babies” in the next breath) and don’t do shit to make sure underprivileged and impoverished children, who are often minorities, are given any help once born.
The GOP: We don’t give a shit about you disgusting poor people and your million welfare babies you shouldn’t be having, but you can’t have abortions or contraceptives!
