• How low can you go?

  I saw McCain's ad about Obama's record on education today and it turned my stomach. So, because Obama advocated teaching kids (in an age appropriate manner) how to protect themselves from sexual predators, McCain is trying to now turn that around and say Obama is this creepy guy that wants to teach kindergarteners sex ed?  How sick can you get?  
  This is from the campaign claiming the family values title and playing the pied piper to a majority of evangelicals? Wake up church! We need a new paradigm people. There is so much more at stake here than which side claims the label pro-life. I'm "prolife" but to me that includes being against an unjustified war that has already cost the lives of so many soldiers and civilians. It means caring what happens to the homeless mental patient out on the street because she has no insurance coverage. It means being concerned about the welfare of children who have already been born, especially the thousands in foster care.
  

  I feel like so much time and money has been wasted fighting over Roe vs. Wade in the political arena when it would have been better spent honing in on and eliminating the reasons women proceed with abortions, like finances, cited by three-fourths of the women in this study.
  

  Church, take off your Faux News-colored glasses and take a real hard look at who it is you're cheering for and who it is you're slandering by forwarding those stupid false emails.
