sex education gone completely screwy

In today's Washington Post, there's an article detailing the disturbing trend and curriculum that young teens are being taught via the administration's funding of abstinence first-and-only programs:

"Many American youngsters participating in federally funded abstinence-only programs have been taught over the past three years that abortion can lead to sterility and suicide, that half the gay male teenagers in the United States have tested positive for the AIDS virus, and that touching a person's genitals "can result in pregnancy," a congressional staff analysis has found."

Can you believe the audacity of these claims? I can, it's part of the conservative agenda to circumvent all the hard work that educators have attempted to educate the youth about sex over the years...they're attempting to roll-back the sexual revolution, along with roe v. wade, and of course our rights as a whole...let's not forget that this was a nation founded by Puritans so "pure" that they had to leave to construct their own nation of religious zealots...there's more info that The Center for American Progress has laid out which is highly interesting and should be made known to everyone...

this of course comes from a group of individuals lead by douches that have no problem taking illegal and unethical moves while spouting off about morals and values as if they have any right to be within a 100 yards of the nearest pulpit. ack. they all sicken me. bring on the flood...
