Help me out here, the "family values" people are who?
Edited on Mon Nov-29-10 08:35 PM by 11 Bravo
We have one family with two daughters, who by every account are polite, hard-working, studious; and have never been involved with even a whisper of impropriety.

Then we have another family where one son, dogged by accusations of vandalism and destruction of property, enlisted in the armed forces. They also have a daughter who conceived and bore a child out of wedlock, made a few bucks on the preaching abstinence tour, then (in her own words) "danced in my underwear on TV" before returning to the preaching abstinence money machine. Finally, they also have a daughter who was caught repeatedly using profanity and homophobic slurs (joined by the aforementioned abstinence flogger) on a social networking site.

Now, guess which family holds itself up as the arbiter of "Real American family values".

3.  Ah Yes.. those wonderful Family Value Jeebus Christians...
.. the ones who love torture, think it's OK to drop bombs on women and children in Pakistan. The ones who want to take away unemployment compensation, take away grandma's Social Security and make Americans work until 90 years-of-age. All just so the Bankers can continue to enjoy their current lifestyle.

Gaaawd bless them... one and all.

5. These are your bozos.
Tony Perkins and his 'Family Research Council', a recent addition to SPLC's hate group list.
