Bush/Blair - war on terror). God's plan is the excuse for war and forced ideology in the USA and any other country lacking in weapons strength to stand up to them. Using God is the only languague the gullible, naive and stupid understand!

Of course what goes on in public schools is a PUBLIC matter, and her daughter's pregnancy is a PRIVATE issue. Or are you saying that her daughter is too dumb to know that there is such a thing as birth control (pills, condoms, etc). Just like I would like religious morals out of the schools, I would also like gov't social engineering out of schools as well. And I don't think anyone's going to argue that the best way to avoid an STD or pregnancy is to, wait for it.... not have sex. You want more? Talk to your parents, not a government teacher.

As I watched the hysterical acclamation given to the book censoring, hypocritical and massively incompetent Sarah Palin by the republicans at their convention I wondered at what I was witnessing. Why would any political Party want a woman like this as their next Vice President? To what deeps of cynicism and crude calculation must they descend to accept her in an attempt to retain power? They had to square the circle, abandon every supposed principle, entertain a woman whom, were she in any other Party, they would castigate and, given the chance, cast into the gutter. Contradictions are ignored, deceits overlooked and acclaimed as "real experience of small town life", and certainty claimed in the face of overwhelming evidence that they are wrong. And all backed up by the smartest and most vicious public relations system on the planet. Where do we look for a parallel? Where else but the Christian literalists and their acceptance of a bible and a tyrannical Stone Age god that has provided practice in all that they need to accept Palin and the flaky would be President McCain. Only another Mencken could do justice to this. "Religion is fundamentally opposed to everything I hold in veneration - courage, clear thinking, honesty, fairness, and, above all, love of truth." H.L. Mencken. Palin and McCain are well practised at the contemptible game that now engages them.

Look at the picture of Palin and decide what she's been startled by or is otherwise reacting to. I think she's just seen the face of Jesus in the arse of a crapping yak. Or maybe the yak's arse spoke to her and said, "Be not afraid, for I am the Lord thy God. Thou hast been chosen to ensure the Democrats win the November election." Or maybe she's just seen Cliff Richard walking out of a straight brothel in downtown Anchorage. You know, I think there’s room for a competition here.
