That's the thing that gets me the most about O'Reilly. The second hour was about abstinence-only sex education, and half of the time he sounded like he was for abstinence ONLY, and the rest of the time, he sounded like he was abstinence sex ed, plus contraceptive education. It was like, "Dude, make up your mind or clear up your argument. Sheesh."
Not only that, but he kept saying the progressives want to separate sexual education and morality. On what planet is that that the truth?
Ooo, ooo! That was another thing they said. He and the guest were comparing the sex ed thing to school violence, and the guest said that teaching about contraceptives was like saying, "We want to keep you safe from school violence, so here, have some bulletproof vests." GRR. Not the same thing, asshats. *sigh*

Besides, its not like wearing a vest is more likely to get you killed, since it would be someone else trying to kill you.
