Well, Wright’s comments didn’t
sit well with the left. Liberal bloggers went nuts, and in a
recent episode of MSNBC’s poorly rated “Countdown with Keith
Olbermann,” the painfully “progressive” talking-head took issue
with Wendy for pointing out this clear conflict of interest, crowning
her “the worst person in the world.”
Toward the end of his decidedly
obtuse monologue,
Olbermann — whose joke writer is also apparently on strike —
smugly quipped, “And the condoms the sex educators keep trying to
make available to the kids, those are for what … water balloons?”
Well, Poindexter, yes, in fact.
That’s precisely what kids are using them for. Take the
African AIDS epidemic. As CWA
reported a few years back, Dr. Margaret Ogola of Kenya
testified at two United Nations conferences that, “‘family
planners’ have put so many condoms into Kenya that the children use
them as balloons and play with them in the streets.”
Tragically, we all know how
“comprehensive sex education” has worked-out in Africa.
Unfortunately, it’s no better right
here at home. Despite a culture that relentlessly extols the
phantom virtues of so-called “safe sex” and practically throws
condoms at children by the handful, STD and teen pregnancy rates
remain high.
Like a broken record, liberal
educators and cultural elites incessantly regurgitate, “always have
safe sex,” while the only thing impressionable, hormone charged kids
hear is, “have sex!”
Of course, “safe sex” is code for “use a
condom,” and everyone knows that condoms are anything but
reliable. It’s like telling kids to walk a paper thin latex
tightrope. There’s a good chance it’ll snap and there’s no
safety net below.
Even radical feminists such as the vice president
of the Gainesville, Florida, National Organization for Women (NOW) and
a “committee chair” of the University of Florida NOW, publicly
admitted during testimony before a Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
hearing that condoms failed them personally — sometimes on multiple
occasions. If experts like NOW feminists can’t use condoms
effectively, how can we expect children to?
Easy answer — We can’t.
Look, we know that abstinence is the only foolproof
method guaranteed to prevent unwanted teen pregnancy and sexually
transmitted disease. Yet the many
successes associated with abstinence education go completely
unreported by a biased media, as a handful of rigged studies conducted
by “comprehensive sex ed” proponents make headlines.
It’s a clear attempt to undermine the impressive
success of abstinence education, while — at the same time —
endeavoring to salvage its failed “comprehensive sex ed”
counterpart. If it weren’t so serious, it’d be funny.
Still, Planned Parenthood is laughing all the way to the
bank.
So, congratulations Wendy. It’s obvious
from the left’s reaction to your comments that you struck a tender
nerve. Anytime you inject truth into the analysis, they go
apoplectic.
And if Olbermann is the chief protagonist for
liberal thought, I think the conservative movement is going to be just
fine. Anytime you’ve got Keith Olbermann’s goat, you
know you’re doing something right.
