Henry Waxman... way to dis a solution to a problem you never had.
It's all unconstitutional. The answer to one morass created by government is NOT to add more government programs. Admirable as this man's goals are, the federal government should not be doing this. If they would stop spending our money to *promote* promiscuity and perversion, that would be more than enough from them.
Drop all these government programs. Have parents reinforce the concept of personal privacy, personal choice, and the free use of volition and to He11 with anyone who disagrees. Peer pressure means nothing if you don't recognize someone as a peer.
Rid us of the NEA and all other unconstitutional government programs.

Good luck with that.
Great line! I'm stealing that, if you don't mind!
We need a Chastity Czar? Yet another federal program to promote something that parents should be promoting.
If children won't take direction from their parents they sure aren't going to listen to nanny government.
Excellent point.
I couldn't agree more.
Unfortunatly, this type of crap is exactly what we have to look forward to, instead of fiscally responsible governance.
The party in power has been mandated to recklessly spend even more than the other party on programs that have never been considered before.
The wise thing to do is rarely "cool" because "cool" is the realm of idiots.
"chastity czar"
???
Huh?
What's the matter with a bit of "how's your father" anyway?
You ain't gonna stop em with a 50 year old "chastity czar".
Isn't it better to try to educate 'em so's they don't catch STD's or get pregnant too young?
Telling 'em it's not cool to do it won't work.
I mean it's in the bible isn't it.
"Go Forth & Multiply" HE said
Who are we to tell em otherwise?
Well, Henry, I don't either. So let's start defunding all of them today.
''I don't think we ought to be using taxpayer money for any program that's not proven to be effective,'' Waxman said.
Damn,doesn't leave too many programs now does it?
I've read through earlier posts; and yes, I do understand the scrawl of "government programs". I support the abstinence/chastity message and with taxpayer dollars. I've come from a location where these programs are urgently needed. I now live in a location where only segments might benefit from these programs -- as the rest of the population is already clear about not supporting perversion and/or pre-marital sex.
The "chastity czar" title is derogatory in the headline. Over 40 years ago, a subtle enemy of innocence, freedom, and honor infiltrated our country's institutions. The results are disastrous. As a country, we have to battle fire with fire to clean up the mess left to all of us by those who hate America. And those who instead of moving to the country of their "choice"; instead stay here and try to bring us all down to their own ridiculous levels of submission.
If children won't take direction from their parents they sure aren't going to listen to nanny government.
Over 40 years ago, that is exactly what happened -- the subversives entered branches of government, especially in schools, and did a bang-up job on seducing youngsters away from the counsel of their own parents. So, perhaps it can also work in reverse.. Like going back through a Time Tunnel. :)
Henry Waxman is a fool, and a pontificating, supercilious, viscious man. If Democrats don't have more "victims" to parade, they have no podium by which to say during election -- "Vote for Me! I'm your Savior!" Why should he care that early sex creates victims? It's big bucks and a podium to himself.
This is absurd. Kids don't have sex because it's "cool", so they will never refrain from having sex because it's "cool". I believe in abstinence but I don't believe in "teaching" it, I believe in enforcing it. I do, however, believe in encouraging frequent marital indulgence.
You saw that too. I hope the RNC and Bush team have captured that quote on tape for future use.
And why would you, as a conservative, defend a teats-on-a-boar useless government program?
Hey Einstein, what does the Bible have to say about fornication?

Probably nothing this guy could possibly do would sway kids' thinking . . . |
"her organization emphasizes that abstinence is cool by promoting T-shirts that say ''Touch your dog, not your date'' "
Well, I can see that becoming the most popular piece of clothing at my local high school. Are these people complete idiots?
Abstinence does not mean that kids have to be completly hands-off with each other.
