Backasswards in Oklahoma

Mike Soraghan, Hill, [1] reports on Senator Tom Colburn(R-OK) getting his priorities backwards:

Sen. Tom Coburn (R-Okla.) said Congress’s deficit spending has become a moral issue surpassing abortion because it saddles future generations with massive debt before they’re born.

“The greatest moral issue of our time isn’t abortion, it’s robbing our next generation of opportunity,” Coburn told reporters at a breakfast meeting Thursday at the National Press Club. “You’re going to save a child from being aborted so they can be born into a debtor’s prison?”

This is not moral leadership.   It is denial.   In order to be born into debt, you first must be born.
