    So, you agree that when a politician invokes family values, that it's an empty catch-phrase?

    "Family values" is a sneaky way for white christian people to pretend they live like the show Leave it to Beaver and everyone else needs to do the same or they're going to hell and are wrong, corrupt and sinful.

    Our government is the potent, the omnipresent teacher. For good or for ill, it teaches the whole people by its example. Crime is contagious. If the government becomes a law-breaker, it breeds contempt for law; it invites every man to become a law unto himself; it invites anarchy. - Louis Brandeis

    try again. i am fairly certain gary condit never ran on the platform of family values...

    here is his voting record and on things like gay rights he did not vote as a conservative. most of what he voted on was anti your typical family values positions....

    I've got news for you... a politician is a politician. Sort of the same way a baby shark is still a shark.

    Point being... not so literal... you cannot trust a politician. If you do... you are a fucking idiot that deserves the shit they serve you on a dinner plate.
