so you agree then that palin's policy stance on abstince-only education is retarded, yes?
No, not with regards to her beliefs. Effective? No. But then again neither are condoms when you don't put them on and, as evidenced by the rate of teen pregnancies, they arent putting themm on.
if you believe that the best solution to a problem is one that doesn't solve the problem at all, and in fact makes the problem worse than other reasonable solutions, how is that not retarded?
the increase in the rate of teen pregnancies which you refer coincided w/ the massive increase in abstinence only education, right? maybe the reason kids ain't been putting the sock on the pickle right is b/c they haven't had the joy of having a 70 year old teacher literally demonstrate that for them in front of all of their peers, eh? (as a side note, no doubt the most awkward day in my 8th grade gym class!)
