I cannot even come up with the words to descbribe this remark by Tom Delay, posted on Raw Story.
Former Republican Majority Leader Tom DeLay told a gathering of College Republicans that a link exists between legal abortion and illegal immigration in America. The remarks were included in a video produced by writer Max Blumenthal and posted at The Huffington Post.
"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."
Ugh. Tom, just shut up. Sit down and shut the hell up. I'm too dusgusted to write any more.

You know what, I do have something more to say. This is so typical of a Republican when you think of it. When you realize it's those who cannot afford to bring a child into the world, who cannot afford to send a kid to an Ivy League school it makes sense. Why didn't we breed a whole servant class to pick the tomatoes and wash your ass when you get old? Keep giving birth, our pools need cleaning.
