PELOSI SAYS BIRTH CONTROL WILL HELP ECONOMY
Sun Jan 25 2009 22:13:43 ET

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi boldly defended a move to add birth 
control funding to the new economic "stimulus" package, claiming 
"contraception will reduce costs to the states and to the federal 
government." 

Pelosi, the mother of 5 children and 6 grandchildren, who once said, 
"Nothing in my life will ever, ever compare to being a mom," seemed to 
imply babies are somehow a burden on the treasury. 

The revelation came during an exchange Sunday morning on ABC's THIS 
WEEK. 

STEPHANOPOULOS: Hundreds of millions of dollars to expand family 
planning services. How is that stimulus? 

PELOSI: Well, the family planning services reduce cost. They reduce 
cost. The states are in terrible fiscal budget crises now and part of 
what we do for children's health, education and some of those elements 
are to help the states meet their financial needs. One of those - one of 
the initiatives you mentioned, the contraception, will reduce costs to 
the states and to the federal government. 

STEPHANOPOULOS: So no apologies for that? 

PELOSI: No apologies. No. we have to deal with the consequences of the 
downturn in our economy.
