no.64 - The Abstinence Plan

Sarah Palin is to be applauded. Her unwavering support of abstinence-only sex education has brought the quality of such programs under a clear and bright light.

There are only two possibilities. I look forward to hearing which of these two options Governor Palin is willing to admit:

Either:
Vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin failed to effectively educate her own daughter on the principles she firmly believes.

Or:
Her educational principles are deeply flawed. Abstinence programs are ineffective and myopic in their scope, yielding poor results wherever they are implemented.

I don't want to dig into her personal life. I don't want to speculate about about Sarah Palin's 17 year old daughter 's Birth plan, though I do hope it doesn't involve giving a speech after her water breaks, hopping an eight hour flight, then driving for 45 minutes to give birth. (What would Freud read into that plan?)

I just want to know where Sarah Palin stands on this Abstinence program, now that she has new information.
