DeLay: Abortion linked to undocumented immigration.

At a College Republicans gathering, former congressman Tom DeLay attempted to blame abortion for undocumented immigration:

“I contend {abortion} 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.”

2. He said this a year or two ago as well, I guess to different people.
Why isn't Delay in jail?

3. Too bad it wasn't legal for his mom
Imagine how that poor woman must've felt when she went through all that pain and was then handed a roach in a blanket.

As for his "point," some things are so laughably wrong they don't require answers, just a brief, bitter "HA!"

4. Exactly....the only reason that Republicans hate abortion it reduces the pool of cheap labor
they like their labor, poor, uneducated, with little opportunity and of course willing to work for less
