Obama: Baby is Punishment

Sad that Obama puts a baby and an STD on the same level.

"Look, I got two daughters — 9 years old and 6 years old," he said. "I am going to teach them first about values and morals, but if they make a mistake, I don't want them punished with a baby. I don't want them punished with an STD at age 16, so it doesn't make sense to not give them information."

Sad that we're going to have to see injected double meanings into every damn word the man and everyone around him says for the next eight or so months.

Remember, this is the man who voted to kill aborted babies who survive the procedure. He's repugnant.

Yes, JohnBoy, because a premature baby with serious defects due to a botched abortions will be snatched up in the adoption market. Letting them live a life of suffering as a ward of the state on the government's health care dollar is a much better solution.

I agree with Goth. It's great when 16 year olds get pregnant!

My 15-year-old nephew just became a daddy.

Mom loves being called "Great Grandma!"

The natural music ability the child gets should mitigate the stautory rape part.

Calvin - I got that beat! My 14 year-old cousin's is going to be a mommy soon. And "Great Grandmother" is still with us, bless her heart. Teen mommies are such a blessing.

I guess these things go in cycles...my grandmother got married when she was 15...of course it was the 1940s.

Why don't you ask Obama why he's against teaching abstinence? The only sure way to avoid unwanted pregnancy is to keep your pecker in your pants. But of course it's impossible for Dems to keep it in their pants. Just ask Bill Clinton, Eliot Spitzer, etc.

Probably because Obama doesn't live in a fantasy world in which the LAST thing a teenager wants to do is have sex. It's the FIRST thing a teenager wants to do--it's "nature's plan," which should appeal to all you intelligent design people.

There is no fool-proof way to stop teen pregnancy.

Yeah, the Dems are the only ones who fVck. What an idiot...

Teaching abstinence doesn't work. As Donna Martin said, "If you have a pool in your back yard, you can tell your kids not to go near it. You can put a fence around it. But if you think there is ANY chance your kids are going to go in, shouldn't you teach them how to swim?" I miss 90210.

I worked with a chick who was 29 and had a 15 year old. I was there with her the day she found out her daughter was pregnant. She was a grandmother at 30.

Hey, sex ed might have prevented this. You never know!

[Calvin]

Posted: 3/31/08 at 2:05pm

Again with the words.

Obama's not against teaching abstinence. He's against abstinence-only education.

Oh Cal! You can use facts to prove anything that's even remotely true!

That is the most Naive post I think I have ever read!

As is ANY intelligent, realistic and rational person.

Yes, JohnBoy, because a premature baby with serious defects due to a botched abortions will be snatched up in the adoption market. Letting them live a life of suffering as a ward of the state on the government's health care dollar is a much better solution.

The ruling applies to ALL later-term abortions (repugnant in itself), where the fetus survives the procedure. It says nothing about "serious defects". Many premature babies are defect-free. It and he are repugnant to me. I'm allowed to be repulsed by him and this ruling, you know.

[Phyllis Rogers Stone]

It's a good thing that the number of late term abortions in the US are so small. I think the number is something like 1000 a year.

from THE SIMPSONS:

Kang: Abortions for everyone!
Crowd: Boo!
Kang: Okay, abortions for noone!
Crowd: Boo!
Kang: Okay, abortions for some, miniature American flags for others.
Crowd: Yay!
