And it is causing a number of mounting problems and concerns. Like anything else tied to the sacred cows of liberalism, it will take a near miracle to make any significant changes in dealing with this problem or the more satanic one of aborting infants.

I read somewhere recently that petri dish babies have less sperm count when they become adults, is there a link to the "girlie" hormones in the water?
