Soonergrunt at Balloon Juice points out an organization that gets upwards of $3 billion a year from the US government, even though it directly pays for upwards of 20,000 abortions a year: the State of Israel (through their way-more-socialist-than-Obama health care system).
So why is it Republicans never complain about that appropriation? They don't care about murdering blastocycsts if the blastocysts are Jewish?
By the way, in Iran, working with a Sharia tradition according to which the "ensoulment" of the fetus takes place around weeks 16 to 18 of pregnancy, abortion beginning with the 19th week is considered as the killing of a live human being and therefore a "great sin and crime"; before that point, it is legal to perform an abortion if a panel of three specialist physicians certifies that the mother's life depends on it. This is a considerable liberalization, under the Islamic Republic, of the law as it existed under the Shah, when abortion was simply illegal in all cases; and it was further liberalized in 2005 when certain fetal abnormalities were added to the list of conditions under which early-term abortion can be allowed.
Way too liberal for some Americans, though I suppose it would work pretty well in many Midwestern states, as long as you kept the Sharia part quiet.
