How is that stimulus?<\/p>\n<p>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&#8217;s health, education and some of those elements are to help the states meet their financial needs. One of those &#8211; one of the initiatives you mentioned, the contraception, will reduce costs to the states and to the federal government.<\/p>\n<p>STEPHANOPOULOS: So no apologies for that?<\/p>\n<p>PELOSI: No apologies. No. we have to deal with the consequences of the downturn in our economy. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Yeah, when a liberal Democrat from California says &#8220;contraception&#8221; we know what that means. I guess the next popular phrase will be that &#8220;abortion is patriotic&#8221; since those doofuses really don&#8217;t know what patriotic means or how to use it properly in a sentence. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Drudge is reporting that Pelosi told little George Stephanopolous this weekend that we need increased &#8216;contraception&#8221; &hellip; <a title=\"Pelosi on the patriotism of &#8220;contraception&#8221;\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=7327\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Pelosi on the patriotism of &#8220;contraception&#8221;<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7327","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-politics"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7327","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=7327"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7327\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=7327"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=7327"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=7327"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
