Abstinence Is Harmful? News To Us

Today the American Civil Liberties Union issued a press release which is featured on their website’s “Newsroom” page that is titled, “ACLU Hails Rhode Island Department of Education Efforts to Stop the Use of Harmful “Abstinence-Only-Until-Marriage” Curriculum in Public Schools“. Only the ACLU and a liberal state like Rhode Island could find abstaining from sexual activity harmful.

The fact is that abstinence is the only form of birth control and STD prevention that works 100% that it is employed. By practicing the ultimate in safe sex, NO SEX, no children are unnecessarily slaughtered in the name of choice, no drugs are being used in order to prevent pregnancy for the sake of promiscuity, and no one will need to be treated for sexually transmitted diseases. So what is the ACLU’s difficulty with teaching this effective form of birth control? Homosexuals in this nation cannot be married in any other state than Massachusetts. And no other state except Massachusetts recognizes marriages performed to same sex couples. If abstinence is taught as it should be, as the ONLY effective form of birth control and STD prevention, homosexuals will not be receiving the indoctrination that the ACLU believes that they should.

By accepting that teenagers are going to have sex before marriage and taking a position of defeatism in the war to prevent this from occurring, we are then telling teenagers to go ahead and have sex. This is akin to telling your child not to shop lift but if they are going to anyway to not get caught. Then teaching them methods on not getting caught as opposed to teaching them to just plain not do it.

The FairTax Book
(Just CLICK on the image and the way to make April 15 just another day will become clearer… )

Here are some teasers adapted from Americans for Fair Taxation:

With the Fair Tax proposal for replacing ALL Federal taxes with one Federal sales tax,

Americans [would] take home their whole paychecks. [There would be n]o federal sales tax up to the poverty level means progressivity like today’s tax system. No tax on used goods. The amount you pay to fund the government is totally visible. Retail prices [would] no longer hide corporate taxes or their compliance costs, which drive up costs for those who can least, afford to pay. The income tax exports our jobs, rather than our products. The FairTax brings jobs home. The FairTax strategy is revenue neutrality: Neither raise nor lower taxes so consumer costs remain stable. [The FairTax would] tax criminals – [not] make criminals out of honest taxpayers.

The FairTax plan is a comprehensive proposal that replaces all federal income and payroll taxes with an integrated approach including a progressive national retail sales tax, a rebate to ensure no American pays federal taxes up to the poverty level, dollar-for-dollar revenue neutrality, and the repeal of the 16th Amendment. This nonpartisan legislation (HR 25/S 25) abolishes all federal personal, gift, estate, capital gains, alternative minimum, Social Security, Medicare, self-employment, and corporate taxes and replaces them all with one simple, visible, federal retail sales tax – collected by existing state sales tax authorities. The FairTax taxes us only on what we choose to spend, not on what we earn. It does not raise any more or less revenue; it is designed to be revenue neutral. So it is also cost neutral – the final cost for goods and services changes little under the FairTax. The FairTax is a fair, efficient, transparent, and intelligent solution to the frustration and inequity of our current tax system

Just visit Americans for Fair Taxation or Fairtax.org OR click on the link above or in my sidebar and buy the book. Then sign up and promote a tax plan that may be a keystone in preserving America.

Yes, it is that important.

Sending an invitation to the tea party to Adam’s Blog andf at Diane’s Stuff, where Diane’s been under the weather, but now is baaaaaaack!

Yep, OTA Wednesday. See the foot of the post for info on linking to this post and tracking back.

I have had one person honestly question my taunting and ridiculing of Muslims and Islam based on Matthew 5:44-45,

“Love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those you hate you, and pray for those who despitefully use you, and persecute you that you may be the children of your Father who is in heaven.”

Fine. I’ll take up that gauntlet, thrown by a genuine questioner…

It’s not too early to push for Democraps to nominate Jean Fraud sKerry again. Billary has her useful idiots, fellow travelers and evil minions pushing for her nom, but a Billary/sKerry ticket would be sooooo much fun to mock: “Stand By Your Man While Spending Christmas in Cambodia!” “Whitewater Swiftboat Veterans for Truth!” “That’s MY Little Blue Dress!” (OK, that last one’s a Jean Fraud sKerry-only campaign line… )

Extra points (10 points and your firstborn male child will buy you a cuppa Starbucks) for posts that link here and track back with mocking of Jean Fraud sKerry (who “released” his records—the last time—304 days ago… supposedly. Human eyes have yet to view them. Only the LA Slimes and the Boston Glob have copies, apparently, and Mass Media Podpeople don’t have human eyes), but now is the time for all good bloggers to come to the aid of twc and link to this post and track back.

Also note the other fine blogs featuring linkfests at

Oh, and wanna join the fun mocking Jean Fraud? See Cao’s Blog for details.

Just read Jerry Pournelle’s post, When they proclaim me emperor, and see if you wouldn’t vote to have him proclaimed emperor yourself…

Whatever these guys are, stupid ranks pretty high up there in the catalog of their sterling qualities. Which, of course, leads me to believe that the liklihood they are from a cult of illiterate/subliterate morons (AKA, Muslims) is pretty darned close to 100%. (And yeh, I know the article simply calls them “pirates” but given their locale and behavior, it’s not a big leap to conjecture that they are members of a cult of illiterate/subliterate morons, now, is it?)

h.t. Cathouse Chat

Every now and then, I get to meet a very amusing troll. Over the last week, I have had the distinct pleasure of interacting with three: two in comments here and another troll on an email list. (Nope. Not ID-ing the list. A few of y’all will know. Keep it to yourselves. I’m milking this one for laughs offlist, OK?)

They provide me with enormous entertainment with their unintended verbal slapstick routines. Idiots can be sooooo funny! I am so blessed.

One of them (the brighter of the three, who shall go unidentified, cos I want him to keep up the unintentional humor of his argumentum ad ignorantium style) recently signed me up for a whole raft of email lists. As usual, he has no idea how obviously transparent he was in signing me up, or how easy it is for me to filter alla that crap (in fact, Opera had already filtered the “confirmation emails” as SPAM, according to my filter rules and its built-in rules).

*LOL*

Dumbasses can be soooo entertaining! I dunno, I just learned years ago that (after giving them one or three chances to prove that stupidity is not their only option, just the one they prefer) ridiculing and laughing at dumbasses is one of the most pleasant diversions around…

Ahhh! Life is a big suck on a sweet orange!

Rejoicing at Conservative Cat (Sorry about the scare, Bruce. Not my fault. I wasn’t there. I have witnesses.)

This just in (from the email dumbass), in response to me thanking him for being such a hilarious joke, just by existing:

“the funniest thing is, you don’t even know that YOUR the joke.”

*LOL* another great piece of unintended humor. First, the dumbass tries to say, in effect, “Oh, yeh, well you too,” in typical schoolyard manner. And just to illustrate he’s never gotten beyond third grade, he mistakes the second person possessive pronoun “your” for the contraction “you’re” (“you are”).

Ahhh, the endless entertainment afforded by subliterate morons!

Thanks again, dumbass for proving yourself to be the joke you are. Life is sweet!

…so far. But it won’t be “America” long if we’re complacent.

Here’s a call to action on one front in the war to conquer America; a war in which the forces of Reconquista have allies in… Congress. From Euphoric Reality, this Guard the Borders blogburst:

CALL TO ACTION!

On Thursday, March 16, the Senate Judiciary Committee told their staff to meet behind closed doors to construct an immigration bill that would include provisions from the Kennedy-McCain bill. Known as S. 1033, the McCain-Kennedy bill includes an amnesty for illegal aliens, a massive “guest” worker program that leads to citizenship, and an estimated one million additional permanent immigrants each year.

Millions of illegals to become citizens?
Kennedy-McCain immigration reform bill likely to pass Senate committee after recess

A bill that would give millions of illegal aliens in the United States the opportunity to earn citizenship is closer to becoming law today as members of the Senate Judiciary Committee signaled likely passage of a proposal by Sens. Edward Kenney, D-Mass., and John McCain, R-Ariz.

Though a committee vote will not be held until after a week-long congressional recess, likely March 27, committee members appeared ready to back the Kennedy-McCain bill.

“The votes are there,” said Sen. Charles Grassley, R-Iowa.

Congress is working to pass a reform bill that includes enforcement, a policy on dealing with illegals already in the country and a guest-worker program pushed by President Bush.

Under the legislation, illegal aliens in the United States would obtain six-year nonimmigrant visas under which they could work in the country and travel outside the country. The aliens would have to pay a $1,000 fine and undergo background checks.

After six years, the aliens would be able to meet certain requirements and then apply for a green card, or permanent residency.

Besides voting on the bill after the recess, committee Chairman Arlen Specter, R-Pa., said the panel also would vote on a bill by Sens. John Cornyn, R-Texas, and Jon Kyl, R-Ariz., that would give illegal aliens up to five years to leave the U.S. After returning home, they could then apply to return, either as temporary workers or for permanent residency.

“Our intention is not to strand anyone outside the country,” Kyl said, according to an AP report. But he asserted the McCain-Kennedy plan would give an illegal alien allowed to stay and work in the country a “huge advantage” over a person having to wait for years in his or her own country for a green card.

The McCain-Kennedy bill would start off with offering 400,000 of the new visas.
