==Warning: Political Rant Ahead==
Thanks to Tobin for this quote:
“Guns have little or nothing to do with juvenile violence. The causes of
youth violence are working parents who put their kids into daycare, the
teaching of evolution in the schools, and working mothers who take birth
control pills.”
— Tom Delay, on Columbine
“Working mothers who take birth control pilsl”?! How dare they?! How dare those women work, how dare they succumb to the evil pressure of needing to put food on the table, of needing clothes for the family, of needing to pay the bills?! And BIRTH CONTROL?! Obviously these women haven’t seen the studies that show how much better things were when they were all chained to the kitchen and pregnant. Immoral, unfeeling, evil women! For Shame!
I mean, how do you even respond to that? This quote is from a few years ago, but the thing that makes it more important now is that this guy is currently the Majority Leader!
Working parents, working mothers, users of birth control and evolutionists read the following, and take heart!
Congressman DeLay is facing questions about the source of funding for some of his foreign trips, political fund-raising for Texas elections and his ties to a lobbyist under federal criminal investigation.
