However 12 states have rejected its funding and Waxman (D-Ca) who controls the House Committee it appears before actually allowed it to lapse in July before it was extended into September. That was where i lost the thread but i actually was talking to a Sex Ed advocate recently and he said that it most likely wont be dropped until after Nov. '08 because teh Dems dont want to be remembered by killing abstinence sex ed. Don't you hate politics!?<BR/>Sadly while opposition to Title V is growing, the Dems still increased funding in the Community-Based Abstinence Education program by $27.8 million to $141 million. <BR/>Seth as to your point- some authorized versions of Title V (oh yah, there are many for every kind of conservative)actually do not address homosexuality at all. This is actually a Clinton-era policy and one that is unlikely to change no matter the POTUS because of large midwestern delegations and contributors.Louishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02925827718500698043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3124842699211980001.post-13851768665082253572007-10-28T19:22:00.000-04:002007-10-28T19:22:00.000-04:00Another question on this issue.

What good would "saving yourself for marraige" be then?Seth Pearcehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04666068782337354220noreply@blogger.com
