GOP's True Colors

The GOP is anti-women and anti-baby based on their proposed budget cuts.

Republicans are taking aim at women's health--not only their reproductive health, but also cancer screenings. And, not only here in the US but globally.

The GOP's hypocrisy is showing. For all the pro-life sentiments, it seems that they are only pro-life when the fetus is in utero, and not even fully then (monies are being drastically cut for WIC pre-natal and early childhood nutrition programs). The US is also number one in infant mortality among industralized nations accoring to the IMF.


Here are two pieces from today's NYT:
