It’s a question that has bedeviled mankind since the dawn of time: “What causes teen sex?”
We all know what causes babies:
But what causes teens to rut around like a bunch of crazed weasels? Science has conducted much research and has discovered the causes of this behavior through recent history.

I think that wagonburner has a good idea of what can cause this problem.

With the age of consent set between 12 and 20, it’s clear that the states cause teen sex. Set the age of consent to twenty with a Constitutional amendment and teenage sex will disappear. If you can only get those darn progressives to go along with it.
Problem solved. 😉

If the progs set the age of consent to a given age, all it means is that they will require you to have sex before then.

It’s worse than you think WB…
If the progs set the age of consent to a given age, all it means is that they will require you to have sex before then.
If the evil progs remain influential, not only will premarital/teen sex be required, so will abortions, and the only kind of marriages recognized by the government will be gay marriages.
Be afraid, authoritarians. Be very afraid! -

Abortion is already one of the sacred rites of passage in the “progressive” church. You’re not a real woman until you’ve had one.

Teen sex causes and contributing factors (in general):
1) HORMONES
2) Teen brains are being rewired at this age, resulting in poor impulse control
3) Lack of strong parental units (and by “strong” I don’t mean “controlling”)
4) Strong influences by media
5) A weakening influence of morality/church in society
6) Removal of the stigma of teen sex
7) Removal of the complications of teen sex (government pays you when you have a baby out of wedlock; i.e., welfare)
8) Ready access to alcohol and drugs
Teen sex has gone on since the first two teenagers locked eyes on each other. It doesn’t seem that they have gotten any smarter since then. In my dealings with the teenagers at my church, they are just as clueless as the teenagers I used to talk to when Lovely was twelve, or when I was a teenager. The same questions get answered, and the same bad answers abound amongst themselves.
The best way to fight this problem? Parents who love, love, love their children and make them feel safe to talk to. Parents who encourage their children to be a whole unto themselves. Parents who encourage their children to respect themselves enough that having sex with a boyfriend/girlfriend isn’t a way to gain status or to feel wanted. Parents who give their child a sense that they are part of something greater than themselves, that the teenager is not the end-all and be-all of their existence. Parents who take the time to train their children, when young, the difference between right and wrong, and that certain actions are wrong not because of the outside consequences, but because of what those actions do to their self. Parents who teach children to be responsible for their actions when they’re young, so these lessons continue into the teenage and adult years. Parents who are engaged and take responsibility for their duties as parents.
Even with the most responsible parents, there will still be teenage idiocy and behavior (see items #1 and #2, above), but with the wholesale abdication of parental responsibilities to various government units (see “schools” and “welfare office”), parents are more likely to lose control of their children, at it seems at an earlier and earlier age. -
If we could only end the war on a silly plant, the problems associated with teen sex would vanish.

#23 – from your linky:
Now the losses could be even higher. It costs $60,000 to $75,000 to build a Volt, including development, manufacturing and raw materials, estimates Sandy Munro, president of Munro & Associates, a Troy, Mich., a company that analyzes vehicle production expenses for automakers. Much of the cost comes from an expensive combination of two power systems — electric and gasoline. With a sticker price of $40,000, minus the $10,000 the company pays in incentives, GM gets roughly $30,000 for every Volt. So it could be losing at least $30,000 per car.
-
The Volt pricing and costs are a little misleading. The costs amortize R&D expenses into a relatively small production volume – much smaller than the original plan used.
Even if the actual sales were much closer to the planned volume, the Volt would hardly become a significant source of profit for GM. It would just have been less of a car-shaped money hole. -

“We are in a new era where the … extreme weather that is occurring is not fully caused by the natural cycles of time and natural events, but by dirty energy, so it is really important to articulate that and name it more precisely,” said Maggie Fox, the CEO of the Climate Reality Project, in an interview Saturday.

Saw Slaid Cleaves at the Mucky Duck this weekend. Good show. He did some songs that will be on a new album. One of them will probably reach the status of The Road Goes On Forever, Up Against the Wall Redneck Mothers, or London Homesick Blues. Its called I Love You More Than I Love Texas.
He has a good stage presence and the difference between his studio and live perfomances is enjoyable, which is sometimes hard for an artist to pull off.
The only negative to the performance was his guitar accompanist, a guy he apparently had to bring on in mid-tour. His name is “Scrappy” Jud Newcombe. He’s a very talented guitarist and some of his work added a new dimension to some of Cleaves songs, but some of them did not seem to fit with a couple of the more well known ones. He also came in late on several of them. He didn’t seem to know which guitar he was going to change to, or where it was on the stage and would get strapped in and hooked up just in time to put the licks onto the main verses. It was rather distracting. He will be on the new album, and I think that is a good idea as he has been working on the new songs with Cleaves on the tour and those sounded tight, but he really needs to work on the standards.
If you haven’t seen Slaid Cleaves live, I do recommend it. -

Romney and Obama would rather have a debate moderated by Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert than allow Gary Johnson to participate.
Libertarian presidential nominee Gary Johnson has filed a lawsuit to win a spot in the presidential debates that start in Denver on Oct. 3.
It’s unlikely that he will succeed, but Johnson argues that the private Commission on Presidential Debates, along with the Democratic and the Republican parties, are unfairly blocking him from participating.

If the Libertarian Party could draw more than a couple percent of the vote they’d have anbetterargument. If you were to lower the threshold far enough to allow Johnson in, you’d then have to allow the serious kook parties in (Greens, Socialists, Commies, John Birchers, LaRoucheites, et al.). -

#60 I think a better criteria would be based on the number of state ballots that include a particular candidate, regardless of party. How many of the kook parties you mention have a candidate on the ballot in over half the states?
The notion that it is beneficial for the nation to limit a presidential debate to the republican and democrat candidate is irrational and false. Doing so benefits the two major parties, not the voters, and that’s exactly how our political industry prefers it. I’m sure they appreciate your loyal support.
In November, voters will select from a field of two corporatist candidates. One with a D next to his name and another with an R, as usual. -

I think a better criteria would be based on the number of state ballots that include a particular candidate, regardless of party.
If a candidate is not on the ballot in all of the states (plus all the territories, etc. who can vote), he/she can’t win. Period.
I believe Perot was able to get in on the debates, John Anderson as well. I could be wrong, but those two got a much larger chunk of the vote than the Libertarian candidate has ever even dreamed of getting. The chunk of the vote each was able to garner was very likely not significantly altered by debate appearances. -

I have sympathy for Mitt’s handlers. Just when they thought they had made him understand why he couldn’t strap his dog’s carrier to the top of his MD-80, he goes and says this:
When you have a fire in an aircraft, there’s no place to go … and you can’t find any oxygen from outside the aircraft to get in the aircraft, because the windows don’t open. I don’t know why they don’t do that. It’s a real problem.

#63 Bob-o:
The notion that it is beneficial for the nation to limit a presidential debate to the republican and democrat candidate is irrational and false.
Actually, given that these are the two people who can actually win come November, I think that limiting the debate to the Republican and Democrat candidate is absolutely beneficial.
The purpose of presidential debates is to educate the public on the relative merits, political viewpoints and qualifications of the candidates, not to educate the public on various political philosophies.
If Mr. Johnson wants to participate in the debate he should prove that he is actually a viable candidate. -

http://www.sekvoice.com/blogs/article_0187ff54-027e-11e2-8655-0019bb2963f4.htmlIn Arab culture loyalty is to family first, clan second, then tribe and finally — and only notionally — to something as abstract as a nation. Anyone who is not a member of your tribe, clan or family, is a potential enemy — and taking advantage of enemies is simply good sense. Indeed there is no concept of the peculiarly Western and particularly American idea of “fair play.”

Are we back to whining about the toopardydoowopoly? Good grief. Libertarians can’t even get elected as dog catcher, despite being on the ballot for virtually every office in every election. There’s a reason for that. They’re usually goonier than road lizards and hold positions that less than 2% of voters agree with.
Johnson was in a few of the Republican debates and yet he couldn’t get any traction with voters. That wasn’t because the evil TPD was suppressin’ his message, they just didn’t like his message.
Speaking of road lizards, Libertarians couldn’t even win the dog catcher race in the least populated county in Texas (Loving) so they decided to take over the town to:“…stop enforcement of Laws prohibiting Victimless Acts among Consenting Adults, such as Dueling, Gambling, Incest, Price-Gouging, Cannibalism, and Drug Handling.” Additionally, the group sought “to ensure that the Sheriff’s Office or the Town Police are never allowed to waste valuable Town resources…to oppress our residents by the investigation or enforcement of violations of Laws that punish Truancy, Drug Trafficking, Prostitution, Obscenity, Organ Trafficking, and other Victimless ‘Crimes’.”
One little problem. They were a bunch of flim-flam artists:
Although Pendarvis, Emory and Duncan claimed to have legally bought 126 acres (0.51 km2) in Loving County in 2005, and registered to vote accordingly, the county sheriff, Billy Burt Hopper, determined that this land had been sold to a different buyer. Misdemeanor charges were filed against the three men, who had left the state by this time. Pendarvis said that he had a canceled check to prove his purchase of the land in question, but no deed was ever produced, and the original landowners denied having sold land to Pendarvis or his associates. The three were subsequently featured on a “wanted” poster issued by Sheriff Hopper and the local Texas Rangers (displayed at Hopper’s office), and threatened with arrest should they return to Loving County.

Mayhaps you could disconnect the airbag first? I really hate airbags in the first place, the wissin nanny staters insisted on them when people weren’t using the seat belt. In crashes under 60 or so the airbag tends to cause more harm than good when the seat belt is used.

The Hypocrisy is stunning; Romney Gave 1,000 Times as Much to Charity in a Year as Biden Gave in a Decade.
The release of Mitt Romney’s 2011 tax returns shows that he freely gave away more than $4 million to charity last year (about 30 percent of his income). In comparison, when Joe Biden was first running for vice president, his tax returns showed that he had given away just $3,690 to charity over the previous ten years (about 0.2 percent of his income). In other words, Romney gave away a thousand times as much to charity in one year as Biden have in a decade.
That’s despite the fact that the Bidens earned well over $2 million over that decade. In fact, their income was $320,000 in 2008, thereby putting them comfortably over the $250,000-a-year line that marks the entry point for “millionaires and billionaires” in Obama-speak. -

Woof!The Hypocrisy is stunning; Romney Gave 1,000 Times as Much to Charity in a Year as Biden Gave in a Decade.
So, it is your contention that Joe Biden is a Mormon and criticizes Governor Romney for not tithing?
No? I got it!
Joe Biden criticizes Governor Romney for not paying the same tax rate as others.
No that can’t be it, hmmmmmmmmmm. Got it!
Joe Biden criticizes Governor Romney for making more money than him. We’ll need to check the Governor’s tax returns for the last ten years. That’s the ticket!
So how much time did the Bidens donate last year to charity fund raisers last year?
Oh, I see, charity only counts if it’s cash. And here I thought those kindly persons donating time down at the shelter were charitable. But there’s that progressive thinking again.
