Express your outrage by turning off Fox News when Kondrake is present, shun the advertisers of that program and encourage others to do so. If their ratings drop to Katie Couric levels he will be gone.
So why aren’t people like Bennett and whoever the other token conservatives on CNN and PMSNBC and those who guest on the Sunday morning shows bringing these things up and forcing them out into the open? Is the money and risk of losing their gigs more important than the truth? It’s one thing to discuss this stuff to your own crowd on your own conservative radio shows, it’s quite another to discuss it on their turf.
I think Mort is experiencing some senility related mental problems.
He never used to talk this way. He was always a liberal leaning bore, but never this nasty.
I happened to see this also and was appalled at his remarks and he refused to back down but kept blathering on about it.
“On the strange side, Brit lately seems to show no emotion at all....”
I love Brit but I think it’s time for him to retire as he plans to.
I think he is absolutely worn down and sick about all the crap he has to put up with. I just don’t think he can muster the enthusiasm to deal with it any more.
Maybe if he retires he can do a few things as a guest or even go into radio where he can say what he thinks without the constraints of being news director of Fox.
I noticed Laura’s hair looked better also.
Are we superficial or what?
heh ummm...
the argument is abstinence only education doesn’t work.
but even still, it is secular abstinence education in a coed public school, so how is that going to really work?
How about this scenario? Two young people fall in love and then do what comes naturally. OK, so they jumped the gun. AZIF it hasn’t happened a million times before and will happen a million times after! It’s the HUMANITY, folks!
I do family genealogical research. You’d be surprised how many times I find a wedding date followed by the birth of a first child LESS THAN nine months later!
I just smile and say, “WOW! Great-grandpa? Uncle Ben? Aunt Margaretha? Who woulda thunk it!”
Where do you think the term “love child” comes from?
I thought he was something like a Joe Lieberman or Kirsten powers...not Markos
well it’s not like great grandpa Ben did it when he was great-grandpa Ben.
We were all babies and pooped in our diapers
The thing is: this “revelation” of Palin’s daughter’s pregnancy has no shock value whatsoever.
These kinds of things have been going on since Adam and Eve.
The leftists are loonier than I thought.
The "Stay Alive" Abstinence-based" program has reduced teenage pregnancies in Africa.
bttt
thanks for posting
I’m pleased to know that someone made sure that Kondracke is not getting away with “verbally kicking” a pregnant teenager.
Planned Parenthood’s research arm, The Guttmacher Institute ranks Alaska as #1 out of the 50 states in birth control availability. So no, kids in Alaska are not getting abstinence education.
Very interesting. Thanks!
I assumed everyone knee the mechanics of the situation. The question is, with all of the options available today to avoid an unintended pregnancy, why do they still happen and so freqnetly? This is a more important question than you seem to think, since it is part of the answer to whether or not sex ed should be taught in school based on avoiding pregnancy and if that should promote either contraceptive use or abstinence.

Could it be as simple as the fact that many young women WANT a baby?
I know that’s hard for a feminist to comprehend, but it is very often the reason “why”.
I agree. Most of my pregnant teens (in my class) were thrilled. It’s very human (and very female) to want a baby, even if you logically know the time’s not right. And, if you are a teenager, well, they just don’t always make rational decisions. That’s why we don’t cut them loose when they’re 12.
