Does Arlen Specter ride the short bus to Congress?
First it was the incredibly moronic single bullet theory, now this?
Specter’s pet project: Sexual abstinence
A glance at the earmarks secured by Sen. Arlen Specter (R-Pa.) in recent years prompts the question: Does Pennsylvania have a problem with sex?
The senator, who supports abortion rights, is turning the state into the abstinence-earmark capital of the country, directing more than $8 million into dozens of programs and, in the process, arching more than a few eyebrows.
He’s done it again this year, setting aside $1 million for an Erie women’s center that provides “abortion recovery” counseling, a community group once chaired by a late supporter and 23 other school districts, hospitals and local organizations. No other member of Congress earmarks money for abstinence education.</em>
Everyday we get another concrete illustration of the mentality of conservatives in power, namely, that whatever they wish to be true they just act as if it is, reality be damned.
Just for the record, Arlen? A single bullet didn’t kill JFK, and abstinence has been proven not to work in study after study.
This guy is a moron.
