Bizarrer and More Bizarre!
.
I knew the adoptive parent study (see previous post) would be picked up the media far and wide...but, I was not prepared for this!
RUSH LIMBAUGH has said the following weird convoluted things about this study:
"So what they're saying is essentially that, "Hey, you know, same-sex marriage and gay adoptive parents, why, yeah, they're much better than even normal parents, much better than natural parents. Because they really want kids, and they'll go all the way and they'll fight all the taboos and so forth. They'll really, really be much better parents." This is standing everything on its head. This is what liberalism has to do. In order for liberalism to succeed -- and make no mistake, that's what this is.
This is just another arm of liberalism. This has nothing to do with true child rearing, what's better or not. What has to happen for liberalism to succeed is that the cultural norms that have been in place for thousands, gazillions of years, have to be overturned. Liberalism is a direct contradiction to the natural, to the normal, in many ways, and this is just glaring, glaring proof of it."
In addition to his totally bizarre connection to liberalism, he totally misses the meaning of "The only category in which adoptive parents fared worse was the frequency of talking with parents of other children." WE know this means they ISOLATE and do not feel "normal" and like they fit it and want to avoid difficult questions like: "How was your labor?"
