Ah Hell. Glenn Beck Talking About Abortion.

Glenn Beck believes Planned Parenthood is illegally using government money to perform abortions on sex slaves:

Beck talks about "window womb" and how if we could see a fetus in the womb, women would be more inclined to carry the fetus to term. I know, I know. Pretty gross -- and totally ridiculous.

None of his silly (and very weird) arguments (a window?!) get past the idea that too many women simply can't afford to carry a fetus to term. The healthcare expenses involved in pregnancy are huge. And Beck and the "pro-life" people have refused to make it more affordable to be pregnant. The Republicans want to cut WIC, a program that provides food to pregnant women. They also want us to stick with the pre-ACA healthcare system -- while slowly trying to kill off Medicaid and affordable services like Planned Parenthood.

But Glenn thinks that because the technology for keeping a fetus alive outside of the womb is upon us, it's somehow easily accessible and affordable for women and families in America. Yeah. In our healthcare system. That's rich.

Okay, Glenn Beck, when are you going to support making pregnancy inexpensive, or, as I've proposed, free? You want to seriously reduce abortions? Use your platform and wacky, googly-eyed "Glenn Beck" TV character to push for free pregnancies and childcare. Because I'm telling you: regardless of whether or not there's a womb window (yuck!), pregnancy and post-natal care is simply too expensive in America for many women and families to afford.

Womb windows? Sheesh. Grow up.

Oh, and here's a bonus clip of Glenn Beck and his guest, the founder of Live Action who's responsible for the James O'Keefe-style pimp hidden camera stunts against Planned Parenthood, suggesting that abortion in the case of rape is just like -- yes, that's right -- Nazi eugenics.
