My Grandfather is a smart man
He told me once that the best measure of someone's character is to look at their children and the kind of adults they grow up to be.

Compare:
Bush twins to Chelsea Clinton

Compare:
Bush 41/Reagan's kids to the Carter kids

I think it all speaks for itself.:)

That's why they want to shove all these morals down our throats, cause their priority isn't raising their kids, they want (and need) the government to do it because they are clearly unable to it themselves (with a couple of exceptions).

2. That was the point I made about the marriage ammendment here in Ks.
Letter to KC Star:

For its supporters, the marriage ammendment is essentially about a problem with parenting, i.e. since they believe homosexuality is a choice, then how do parents raise their children in such a manner as to get them to choose heterosexuality. If parents are too confused to figure this out, why is it the responsibility of the state to support, and thus perpetuate, weak parenting at the expense of innocent others who are trying to make loving commitments to one another?

3. That's not always the case
There are many instances of problem children in the light of good parenting. It happens all the time and I think it's just taking a big swipe of a paint brush over a large group of different people with different kids.

Sometimes all the best parenting in the world doesn't mean a thing if the child has problems or even just makes bad decisions.

Your argument or your grandfather's doesn't hold water.
