Now McCain has brought up sex education

[barack the house]

Shouldn't it be highlighted that education on how to protect teenagers from sexually transmitted diseases is important let alone to prevent unwanted pregnancies. It's a matter of health and safety. Obama doesn't want very young kids taught about sex but McCain has only highlighted that better sex education would of benefited Gov. Palin's kid. He doesn't need to mention her incident but he should highlight that McCain has only highlighted an issue to be addressed.

Obama can slam this back in his face that some Republican policy is killing folks in it's irresponsibility. In this modern world teenagers should be better informed to protect them from various diseases out there. It can be optional not mandatory but it's certainly safer. It's ludicrous to say that Republicans have policy for combating AIDS in Africa but at home they push abstinence that only encourages the potential spread of HIV. Slam their backward policy back in their faces.

1. Don't answer rationally

the answer is to ask why McCain wants kindergardners to be molested.

4. Well clearly Obama wouldn't want those unable to comprhend sex education but teenagers do need some>

more awareness to keep them healthy and safe that is a health policy also.

2. "He doesn't need to mention her incident "

Maybe not directly, but he could say "We've all seen the results of abastinance only sex education..." and then go on about the number of unwanted pregnancies, etc.

That would hit home without being a personal attack on Palin.

3. He can't mention abstinence only education without it being seen as an attack on Bristol

So he'll go the child molester route in his responses as he already has, which is the better of the two options.

5. Yes, but it's McCain that initiated the discussion.

6. I think it's unfortunate he hasn't tackled the real issue though that is behind mccain's ad. Oh well

7. Besides if McCain has made such a personal attack why be protective to McCain?
