Republicans looting the public coffers

2007-05-01 01:31:12.281885+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

Ooooh, this is interesting. Remember the anti-contraception wacko Eric Keroack getting appointed to lead the HHS Office of Population Affairs, and then resigning because his practice was getting investigated for Medicaid fraud? Something in Violet Blue's recent missive, abstinence does *not* make the heart grow fonder, triggered a few neurons.

She pointed to this Boston Globe article on Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick foregoing federally funded abstinence propaganda in the schools which noted that "Healthy Futures", "...a subsidiary of a Christian, anti abortion group called A Woman's Concern...", had gotten $800k of this money.

And, what do you know, "A Woman's Concern" is Eric Keroack's group.

Anyone who believes that bullshit that Republicans are fiscally conservative has no more credibility.
