Done being quiet for so long

Regarding the Bristol Palin pregnancy: do you get a free pass on everything else if you are pro-life? And all the conservative media going on and on about how in real families "things happen". Of course things happen, which is exactly why you need real sex education, not some deluded abstinence only stuff that exactly no one believes in. And next time a conservative columnist laments about inner city kids for having kids out of wedlock, I'm gonna send them Bristol Palin spam.

Laugh of the day: This blogger opined that "Bridget McCain is a testament to John and Cindy's pro-life views". Whaa?? Bridget was already a living child with a cleft palate when the McCains adopted her. What exactly was pro-life about that?

Priya,

So glad to have found you again. I kept checking the other blog.. Anyway. Great to be reading your great writing again. The stuff about abstinence seems so backward. They prefer preaching abstinence in Africa for prevention of AIDS rather than distribute condoms. OMG!!
