And why is that? I am from a very civilized area--Roanoke, VA--and I am the descendent of a series of first- and second-cousin marriages. Of my father's four grandparents, three of them were cousins, two of them first, the other second. And each generation behind them tells pretty much the same story. When my father died two years ago at age 84, we were taken by surprise b/c he died at a much younger age than his brothers. And he had been healthy all his life. So am I and all my cousins, nieces and nephews. We are not three-eyed, most of us have college degrees and above and live normal lives. In fact, some of us are conservatives, even freepers in good standing. Since the time of the American Revolution and earlier, we have helped settle this country and have given our lives in every war this great nation has fought. What's this about breaking down our country's sexual morality? On the contrary, we helped build it!
It`s all right for the First Families of Virginia but not for the worst families of West Virginia.
Sheesh....
