[Anitius Severinus Boethius]

Kids indulging in oral sex on school busses is not about kids being moral or not. Those who were raised with morals won't be doing this, those without morals will be engaging in this behavior regardless of a Brittney Spears video.

Morality is, and should be, taught at home.

The problems on the busses have to do with the willful lack of discipline that is evident in the school system. The first offenders should have been suspended or kicked off the bus immediately.

But if you think that forcing the girls to wear burkhas and undergo genital mutilation will create more moral children, then by all means, advocate standing with Islam to oppose Brittney Spears.

Morality should be taught at home, but it is naive to the extreme to think that a childs morality will not be affected by what is presented to them as normal by the popular culture. It is also naive to think that a parent can shelter their children from that culture without locking them in a box.

It's just about sex, right? Did you work in the Clinton White House?

Where does Buchanan endorse burqas and genital mutilation? Where?

As for Pat's comment about standing with Islam against decadence, this is no different from the policy pursued by the Holy See to stop the UN from declaring abortion a fundamental right in ther '90s. The principal support for the Vatican's postion, sad to say, came from the Islamic world, although some Latin American countries also stood against evil. The entire West, including Clinton's UN representatives representing this country, either openly or tacitly supported the effort to have abortion declared a fundamental right.

Not just a lack of discipline in the school system. There was no school discipline back in my day, when the "ments" were setting kids' hair on fire on the bus. But apparently they, like everyone else, hadn't even imagined BJs on the bus.
