Having a little fun with the social conservatives..

[Fumesucker]

I put this post up on a liberalish site often frequented by social conservatives a few hours ago.. It brought the discussion on their part of the Sarah Palin matter to a screeching halt from full throttle hypocrisy.

Anyone who wishes to use this or any variation in any way you please, be my guest, I would be flattered.

What should I tell my granddaughters?

I'm a little perplexed.. Until the last few days, I was under the impression that premarital sex by teenagers and out of wedlock births by the same are something that society generally does not approve of.

But now we are going have the spectacle of a teen aged unwed mother and the sperm donor (to use Dr Laura's term) being feted on stage during a national political convention. To the best of my knowledge this has not happened before.

I have one pubescent and one almost pubescent granddaughter and I'm wondering what their grandmother and I should say to them should the question of premarital sex and out of wedlock births arise, particularly so in light of the upcoming situation at the RNC. Y'all are aware, I'm sure, that children tend to ask awkward questions and I could really use some help in trying to come up with answers.

Could some of you social conservatives help me out here? I know y'all are the arbiters of all things moral and I'm just an old liberal/progressive, atheistic dirty fuckin' hippie who has no clue when it comes to morals. What is the party line on unwed teen sex and motherhood these days?

2. Not very subtle, are you...........n/t

[Fumesucker]

4. Conservatives don't do subtle...

A figurative baseball bat to the side of their head to get their attention is just about right.

3. What I really like

"To the best of my knowledge, this has not happened before." As long as the Republicans are yammering on and on about how unprecedented the choice of Palin is, why not point out a few other "firsts" that the Palin nomination is accomplishing?

5. "What is the party line on unwed teen sex and motherhood these days?" So very ON ...

You should consider writing for KO, Stewart ....

17. Thanks for the compliment

I just happened to hit that particular nail right on the head..

I got that feeling like when you know you've hit a home run out of the park as soon as the bat hits the ball.

Or maybe carving a perfect corner on a crotch rocket as soon as you get back on the throttle at the apex.

8. It's very hard to explain the Celebration of Teen Pregnancy we're witnessing.

Yesterday I had to try and explain the WHOLE HISTORY of sex and politics to my eleven year old son. He kept asking me, What's all this about a pregnancy? Who's pregnant?

And I had to explain about sex education, abstinence education, why the Republicans are trying to change the subject off the economy and the war.

I hope he got it!

And I hope he ends up like his dad was -- a gentleman who ALWAYS used a rubber! ;)

10. Ummm

"And I hope he ends up like his dad was -- a gentleman who ALWAYS used a rubber!"

Then where did that 11 year old son come from??? Hmmm??? :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: Just yankin' your chain. :pals:

[SmokingJacket]

12. Haha!

Well... not ALWAYS... ;)

[zippy890]

9. haha - I'd be interested in any responses to this

well put.

[MadrasT]

11. Well done! Really well done.

I love it when an argument can be made that just shuts. them. up.

Their hypocrisy is staggering. Just staggering.

13. the party line according to bill the O is

these people project family values, and what you are trying to do is take their personal values and make them a case against their projected family values, (then he hung up on the caller):wtf:

my at work in shop radio only picks up a.m. stations, keeps my stress level up, for sure.

14. Look she's pregnant just like Jamie Lynn Spears! Kewl!

Foxnews reported that Jamie Lynn SPears has sent a gift to Bristol Palin. NOT a joke!

16. An update...

I've been busy with work, but I just checked back..

Zip, nada, zilch, nil..

[tbyg52]

18. That's a great approach! Ask 'em questions they can't answer.

There should be a *lot* of those! :rofl:

[ColbertWatcher]

19. I have to agree with you: ask 'em questions they can't answer.

We should use that tactic all the time.
