Bush Budget Waste

By Byron LaMasters

Both Vince and I wrote on the study showing that the abstinence education program in Texas actually increased teen sex rates. So, one would think that a sensible budget-cutting president would realize that the program isn't working and either cut the program budget or demand results. Well, not really. What does the Bush administration do? They increase abstinence-based "sex education" by 24%. What a waste...

I don't think I have to worry about it, though.
