The devil is in the meaning of words, and how they have been bastardized. You can thank Clinton for that and his, "It all depends on what 'is' is" spin. Before you even get to what "family values" means, look at what passes for a "family" today - any grouping of persons, animals, gays, criminals or aliens. Sorry, but I do not accept any definition of family other than a duly married heterosexual couple and their children, period. Now, what values fall under the modifying adjective, "family"? I would include such things as honesty, integrity, self sacrifice, compassion, selflessness, reverence for life, humility, teamwork, and EARNING your goods. There are many others that don't come to mind at this moment, but based on those mentioned already alone, there is a world of difference between the two families stipulated by the original poster. I would be willing to bet that George Bush would NEVER call a grandson or granddaughter a "punishment for his daughter making a mistake" as did 0.
