10. Take advantage of our "latex away" plan and your mom could be VP within 3 months!*
* subject to the availabilty of an insane maverick Presidential candidate to choose her. Your results may vary.

7. Also called a blessing - all pregnancies are good because babies are a blessing
:sarcasm: At least that was what they said when Obama supported sex education because he didn't want his daughters making a mistake and destroying their options....

12. Our meme should be abstainance is a policy failure. Contraception should be taught.

15. Make that "abstinence *only* is a policy failure."
I don't disagree with trying to keep kids from having sex for as long as possible. It's a good idea, and religion needn't play a central role in that effort. For example, some years ago, I read that girls who are active in high school athletics have a significantly lower rate of sexual activity than those who who are not.

Nevertheless, the abstinence education policy fails when practical sex education and information about contraception are excluded from the curriculum.

22. We'll probably find that "early baby" applies to Republicans only, which leads me to ask...
...if Condi Rice had a child out of wedlock, would they call it a "late baby?" :shrug:
