The NY Sun has a column about a spokesperson from Naral Pro-Choice NY, bitterly complaining and moaning about the double standard shown by the Governor, about "funding cuts" for Covenant House (Alaska).
First of all this is odd coming from from a group that if they had there way would have instantly dragged Bristol Palin to an abortion clinc. Secondly as per usual in typical liberal fashion the spokeswoman mistates the facts. As stated by Robert, a respondent to the column;
"Leave it to a narrow-minded, partisan group like NARAL to misrepresent the facts. They asked for $5 million in new funding, the budget allowed for $3.9 million, so they complain that their funding was "cut". It was not cut, it was a bit less than everything they wanted. Samantha Levine is being dishonest. And she probably didn't say "thank you" to the taxpayers who kicked in the $3.9 million."
Talk about "fuzzy math". But again this is typical of the liberal/child mindset of the left. If I can't have all I want then it's a cut and I'll whine and hold my breath until I turn blue.
I would wager that if they were sitting down at a supper table and were served up 99% of an entire pumpkin pie, they would, instead of being thankful for almost all the aforementioned pie, wail about the missing slice, and complain that they were being shortchanged.
