"Bristol Palin's pregnancy may be the ultimate teachable moment. It just might not be the lesson that John McCain intended." <...>

"McCain has voted to increase abstinence-only funding, voted to terminate the federal family planning program and voted against funding teen pregnancy prevention programs. He voted to require teens seeking birth control at federally funded family planning clinics to obtain parental consent."

3. Perhaps not, but are his policies what Americans want?

4. This is where we need to be pounding

This is the real story here. It doesn't need to be specific to the Palin's, just that, once again, this abstinence only sex education doesn't work, and that it's the position of McSame and Palin.
