Good idea. Thanks, Krause.
Anything to keep the population boom down and curb global warming.

Did you notice this from the article?
"If certain people come out and start espousing this rhetoric about
family values, then I will say, 'Let's talk about family values, because
here's what I heard.' I don't have direct knowledge..."
Heh. She's going to fight back with hearsay and gossip.
"Family values" is just a meaningless phrase right-wing politicians use
to fire up that small percentage of their base that thinks the GOP
"stands for" that sort of thing. Obviously, it does not, if you take
into account the re-election victories of significant Republican pols
who were in serious violation of whatever the base thinks "family
values" means.
I am not saying Democratic politicians are paragons of virtue. They
aren't. But they usually don't preach "holier than thou" family values
bull**** to their base.
The "family values" are what they are saying they will push for in their political offices. Like all humans, they may fail at some of them in their personal lives.
It's really no different than the liberals who preach global warming and for everyone having a small carbon footprint while having a larger footprint themselves than 99% of the public. Think Al Gore or any of the dozens of limousine liberals.
Actually, it is quite a bit different. Understanding global warming and
what goes with it requires some intellectual ability, regardless of what
Gore is or is not doing. Politicians preach "family values" to the
relatively simple minded who go for the idea of hating gays, blacks,
choice, women who want equal pay, women who work, et cetera.
Actually, it's exactly the same. Do as I say, not as I do.
Unfortunately, you don't seem to have a clue. Granted while there are a few aberations that have espoused some of the negativity that you mention, none of the things you mention truly have anything to do with "family values", and certainly not the "hatred" you're attaching to it. And you repeating it over and over doesn't make it true. The hatred seems to be all yours.
But thank you for playing.
