Pro-Lifers choose death over life again

Once again the Republican "pro-life " people prove that they are anything but pro-life. In Texas the governor signed an executive order that makes mandatory the cervical cancer vaccine. Now the Republicans and their conservative allies are trying to fight the order. The argument is again that without the fear of death the girls are more likely to have premarital sex. Once again these people would rather see people die than have sex. It also shows that they have no faith in the moral values that they teach their children. Apparently all their children are sex addicts who with out the fear of death would hump anything that moves. It does not matter what their church says or what the parents say, they are no match for sex. The kids are apparently unable to develop moral values, they can only respond to fear. The conservatives and the republicans are only concerned with imposing their order on other people. It is a matter of control, not morals.

Thank God

Tornados rip through Florida on Friday morning. Predictably there was a news article in which the person said that he thanked God that he was alive. So this leads to a few questions.

1. What did the 20 people who died do to piss God off that he let them die?
2. Why did God allow the tornado to destroy his house?
3. Why did God send the tornado?
4. If he did not send the tornado, why did he not dissipate it or send it off in some harmless direction?

On another issue , Troop surge, my previous blog said that I did not count the Iraqi troops because I thought they were useless. This in from the NY Times

"American officials have said the new plan will take time, but new concerns emerged Sunday about the readiness of Iraqi military units that are supposed to work with the roughly 17,000 additional American soldiers who will be stationed in Baghdad under the plan, which President Bush announced last month.

Iraqi and American military officials said the command structure of the Iraqi side had still not been resolved, although the plan is supposed to move forward this coming week.

Naeem al-Kabbi, the deputy mayor of Baghdad and a senior official loyal to Moktada al-Sadr, the powerful cleric who heads the Mahdi Army, said he believed the plan had been delayed “because the Iraqi Army is not ready.”"
