As I figured, there was not point in answering your question in the first place.
Do you enjoy wasting other people’s time?

LOL, rarely is there a point to promoting speech codes, or trying to shut up fellow conservatives.

As for your question, it was you who wasted your time trying to shut up those with whom you disagree.

I urge the holier than thous to mind their own damn business.

Because THAT's real conservatism. Why don't you join the libs and go pass out condoms somewhere.

Because he's concerned about actually, say, winning elections, which isn't helped by conservatives or Republicans being seen as squarish prudes.

If winning elections is all it's about, only vote for the most popular candidates of any party. Make sure none of them are perceived as prudish by anyone to the left of Larry Flynt.

Claim: Female athletes competing at the Olympics are getting pregnant just so they can abort the baby and by so doing enhance their performance through hormone doping.

The links you posted provide no definitive answer, simply the notion that this was a conceivable possibility. Any pregnant woman who has ever suffered from morning sickness would immediately dispel such a notion. And any athlete who would sink to such a base idea, does not deserve to win an Olympic medal, much less compete with other national champions. This has to be the most despicable suggestion of how to improve competition, that I have ever heard.

Isn’t there a soup kitchen or shelter you could be volunteering in on a Sunday?
Or are you so high up you just get to pontificate all day?

I never said shut up, or silence, nor did the definition I posted. That is just your imagination.
