She just did a very good piece about the contradiction between Palin's stance on sex education and her daughter's pregnancy. It was not hyped or salacious, but gave the facts. Bill Bennett went ballistic.
You might want to send her a few words of support. The right wing is going to be after her after this.

| 1. Good on Kyra. The GOP wants abstinence only? Well, this is the result. It's that simple. |

| 5. I think Bill went ballistic |
|
mainly because he doesn't want Palin's real position on the issue out there, but of course he tried to couch it in concern for the daughter.

| 3. Kyra was great! I couldn't believe it. |
|
I hope someone grabbed a youtube of it because, as Bennett made clear, the GOP clamp down on talking about the issue has begun.

| 4. Sadly, Gov Palin's daughter provided substantial proof of the ineffectiveness of abstinence only. |

| 9. Maybe she is insulted by the sexist Palin pick |
|
I noticed that she claimed at the beginning that she was having audio problems-that way she could get the whole report out and only a cut away would end it
:shrug:
who knows? Maybe she got on the ground and found out how dangerous this pick really is.

|
I want to see what happened. In any case, anyone have a good summary of what was said?

| 8. That was a remarkably long report on American news TV |
|
Bill Bennett was beside himself for her "attack journalism" in daring to mention a group Palin is involved with and that flies directly in the face of common sense. I think Bennett's wife is involved in the Center for Reproductive Rights (something like that) too.
