Obama Administration Caves Into Science
I remember the good old days of the Bush administration when they wouldn’t let a little thing like scientific evidence stand in the way of advancing their ideological agenda. Obama on the other hand insists on letting the facts weigh in his decisions:
Sex education classes that focus on encouraging children to remain abstinent can persuade a significant proportion to delay sexual activity, researchers reported Monday in a landmark study that could have major implications for U.S. efforts to protect young people against unwanted pregnancies and sexually transmitted diseases.
Only about a third of sixth- and seventh-graders who completed an abstinence-focused program started having sex within the next two years, researchers found. Nearly half of the students who attended other classes, including ones that combined information about abstinence and contraception, became sexually active.
. . .
Based on the findings, Obama administration officials said programs like the one evaluated in the study could be eligible for federal funding.
“No one study determines funding decisions, but the findings from the research paper suggest that this kind of project could be competitive for grants if there’s promise that it achieves the goal of teen pregnancy prevention,” said Nicholas Papas, a spokesman for the Department of Health and Human Services.
Now how exactly are we supposed to expose the Obama administration for destroying the American family if he insists on examining the evidence and siding with our ideology when appropriate?
He is playing dirty, which is exactly what I would expect out of someone like say. . . The ANTICHRIST!
