Excuse the double reply please, but I went and read the post in your journal, and wanted to ask a question but couldn't.
It's very much beside the main point, but I was wondering if you had seen or heard anything concerning how the tendency of the far right to criticize other people for having too many children* (i.e. those poor and/or non white/non North American people of course) is reconciled with their own anti-abortion, anti-birth control and pro-large family stances within the United States? Is it pure double think? I'm removed from this situation (not in the U.S.), but it's something that I completely don't understand. (Then again, I'm a supporter of women's rights in general and the ability to control fertility is pretty critical.)
