And now, contra the nanny state....

....with evidence provided (of course) by the Obama administration.  How so? 

Well, apparently they are arguing that cutting foreign aid would result in the deaths of up to 70,000 children annually, apparently because the tin-horn dictators who receive foreign aid would never, ever consider using their own tax revenues to run anti-malaria programs, fund vaccination, or other things like that.  They have Kalishnikovs to buy for their armies, after all, and need to put their retirement funds into Swiss banks.   It's not like the lives of their subjects matter.

Which is to say that the Obama administration has unwittingly (as we'd expect) provided a justifcation not for continuing foreign aid, but for cutting it in toto, as it only serves to keep immoral clowns in their positions.

On a side note, if Dear Leader really wants to save the lives of children, why not simply cut off all federal funds to Planned Parenthood?  I bet that cutting a mere few hundred million dollars they receive annually would save tens of thousands of lives annually as they're not able to keep their abortuaries open.
