Applesauce
Pat Cunningham offers an unabashedly liberal perspective on national politics. A note of caution: The language gets a litttle salty on some of the sites to which this blog links. So, don’t say you weren’t warned. By the way, this blog’s name is inspired by the Will Rogers quote, “All politics is applesauce.”

A John McCain campaign ad released yesterday (see HERE) distorted Barack Obama’s support for Illinois legislation aimed at protecting children from pedophiles.

It might interest the McCainiacs to know that the Boy Scouts are PUSHING the same kind of stuff Obama was advocating.

    When Obama’s campaign was asked by ABC News to explain what kind of sex education Obama considers “age appropriate” for kindergarteners, the Obama campaign pointed to an Oct. 6, 2004 story from the Daily Herald in which Obama had “moved to clarify” in his Senate campaign that he “does not support teaching explicit sex education to children in kindergarten. . .

    That’s nice. But, what ARE the boundaries, and who created them?

    Well, snuss, the boundaries are somewhere to the left of the stork theory. That’s all I can tell you. In my day, sex education amounted to just listening to older kids in the neighborhood. Admittedly, the first few lessons invariably were greeted with disbelief.
