The Republican National Committee's 2008 convention draft platform pledges to continue waging the right's war on sex education. The platform reads: "We support abstinence education and oppose school-based clinics that provide referrals, counseling, and related services for abortion and contraception." These words seem ironic in light of revelations that the 17-year-old daughter of Vice Presidential candidate Gov. Sarah Palin, Bristol, was impregnated by her boyfriend, a self-described "fuckin' redneck" who will "kick ass" if anyone messes with him.

12. He's "happy with his answer"?????
WTH?

He might as well have said "Caribou meat is delicious and full of protein."

I would love to have the anti-perspirant concession at the RNCC 'cause there is some SERIOUS sweating going on in St. Paul right now. :)

2. OMG!
I just ....... omg.....
What....???????

OK, I'm all for letting Alaska go if they want to now. All progressives who want to stay in the union can be relocated to Seattle.

Holy crap. And y'all thought the South was bad....

3. That lady at the end...
All three of her daughters have gone out on a date with their father? :wtf:

Is it just Alaska that's weird, or is it all right-wing religious fundies? I have little experience with either...

4. Nice how the son is excluded
Do you like how the last woman interviewed went on about her and her husbands obsession with controlling their daughters sexuality, but apparently give the male heir a free pass?

5. I can't decide if their heads are in the sand or up their collective ass.
Re: Group dates - I'm sure nothing goes on there.

8. Did you see how Meghan McCain waved her hand at Grandma to
keep her from answering? I don't know about you, but I'd never wave my grandma off like that. She really looked like she wanted to say something.

11. Grace Van Diest:, Palmer, AK rep: "conception to natural death"
Max should have followed up with a question about her position on the death penalty.

13. Hmmmm,
I pretty sure that if you want to guarantee your daughter loses her virginity, send her out with a "youth church group"...

Lord help me, the self-righteous are slimy fuckers.
