And who says the "culture wars" are dead and dying? 
Ugh they should be. Especially on something like sex-ed when it is stunningly clear it leads to less pregnancies. Of course the beef social cons have with it is that it seems to condone promiscuity. But see personally I would just like less abortions and ruined lives. I guess you can't change religious people's mind though.
You're busy painting a picture of Palin as some extreme right-wing theocon, but are you aware she is pro-contraceptives and a member of Feminists for Life?
But if you don't teach that to kids it leads to more teenage prenancies. It is just fact. And like I said maybe Bristol's birth control failed or something so I definetly don't want to go personal here.
But understand that one of the core beliefs of a conservative individualist is that the State should not usurp the authority of parents. Palin has never said she thinks children shouldn't be taught about sex and contraceptives, but that the teachers should be the parents instead of public schools (i.e., the State). As you have stated, since we don't know all the facts we cannot say whether Palin's beliefs have been proven wrong or not.
