This, btw, from the GOP's big gambler AND writer on ethics and virtues. I am just tired of it. Tom Delay continues to play his Christian virtues, as he acts like a thug.

But Bennett's remarks are even worse:

"If it were your sole purpose to reduce crime, Bennett said, "You could abort every black baby in this country, and your crime rate would go down.

"That would be an impossible, ridiculous and morally reprehensible thing to do, but your crime rate would go down," he added."

As others have noted, Bennett clearly was not advocating genocide. In fact, he is being critical of abortion and the justification of abortion. But to single out black children and imply that they are more of a crime problem than, say, whites, is just ridiculous.
