Irony: Pro-abort Leonard Pitts Jr: "A great nation has a moral obligation to... care for the most... vulnerable of its people"

I have quoted Pitts before stating quite plainly that America is "a nation where human rights are given." Human rights are not given, and especially not by the government. If Pitts would quote from that Declaration of Independence, he will find to his horror that our unalienable rights are endowed to us by... GOD! Not by man. Indeed the Declaration of Independence identifies the right to "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness", which is interesting since Leonard Pitts Jr is rabidly pro-abortion. That's right - he is pro-abortion but anti-death penalty, yet falsely blasted Republicans for not helping babies in Haiti after the earthquake last year, illustrating quite vividly that although he has no qualms about tearing babies to pieces, he will use those same babies to hit conservatives over the head on false notions if the opportunity presents itself. If Pitts can't stand up for the first and most important of those three unalienable rights (you can't pursue happiness without liberty, and have no liberty without life), then his abstract arguments for the 3rd in regards to universal healthcare and such aren't moving whatsoever. And so we have another Pitts column full of moonbattery over in The Detroit Free Press: Paying taxes -- a duty to your fellow Americans. Unless it's a typo, Pitts stats off by going iCarly:
Ipay my taxes.
And then he goes on to conflate the paying of taxes for legitimate purpose (public safety for instance) with paying taxes for illegitimate ones (ObamaCare, welfare, etc). The former is largely on the local level, the latter at the federal one which is increasingly disconnected from reality. But then Pitts gets all we we'd up:
I pay my taxes. I consider it a patriotic obligation -- a sacrifice for the greater we.
And that due to Tea Party Derangement Syndrome:
But that is not how the anti-government forces that have dominated political debate in recent years see it. To hear them tell it, to pay taxes is to be robbed. And every federal program our taxes support is wasteful and unnecessary, except, of course, those that directly benefit the complainer.
No Leonard, not "every federal program." Just the ones that are not in the US Constitution. The US Constitution after all was not written to give out rights but rather to limit the power of the federal government, a limit that has been breached by a metastasizing federal government looking to control the lives of every man, woman and child in the US all the way down to what's on our plate for dinner. And the Tea Party is not "anti-government," but rather for the proper place of government as per said US Constitution. Anti-government types are anarchists, of which I don't know a single one that is a tea partier. But back to healthcare, the most ironic quote in the whole piece:
...A great nation has a moral obligation to provide a safety net, to care for the most broken and vulnerable of its people.
Um - would those not be UNBORN CHILDREN? Can you think of any human being in a more vulnerable state than that? And Pitts condones literally breaking them into pieces. How sad that Pitts can't see beyond his liberalism-tinted glasses.

UPDATE: Since Pitts insists that paying taxes is patriotic, how then does he square that with the fact that not only does bottom 47% of taxpayers pay no federal income tax, but the bottom 40% GET MONEY BACK!
