Sex Ed For Kindergartners? Obama-Romney Debate Heats Up

Jul. 20, 2007 - For the second day in a row, Republican presidential candidate and former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney blasted Democratic presidential hopeful Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., for believing "age-appropriate" sex education should begin as early as kindergarten.

Obama, who has family members and friends who suffered sexual abuse at early ages, believes young children should know the difference between appropriate and inappropriate touching. The legislation he supported in the Illinois Senate would have revised the state's law so that sex education would begin in kindergarten and run through high school, rather than running strictly from grade six through 12.

After Obama reaffirmed his belief Tuesday that age-appropriate sex education should begin as early as kindergarten, Romney saw his opportunity to pounce.

"How much sex education is age appropriate for a 5-year-old?" Romney asked Wednesday at a Colorado campaign stop. "In my view, zero is the right amount. Instead of teaching about sex education in kindergarten to 5-year-olds let's clean up the ocean of filth, the cesspool in which our children are swimming."

Way to go Obama......leave it to the Dems to try to stick their noses just a bit further into what should be the choice of the parent. Sex Ed for kindergartners....UNREAL!

Have a good one!:s4:

I can't believe Obama would support something like that. If anyone should be teaching children that young about that stuff it should be their parents. And if its just about inappropriate touching wouldnt the kids parents have taught them that anyways? I mean, thats why they're called PRIVATES. They are private parts. Private parts meaning not for other people to see. Thats what parents should be teaching their kids. Damn politicians and their fucked up agendas.

Howdy Psycho4Bud,

Thanx for the heads-up,I hadn't heard about this !

Clearly,for the Left,it's all about social engineering and subverting parental authority,one solution is to take our children out of their schools,but democrappers keep trying to block such attempts,such as school vouchers and home schooling.

I see this as nothing less than sexual exploitation of our children,the end result being coerced acceptance and tolerance of homosexuality and abortion as a means of handy birth-control.

Have a good one ...
