Silence – we’re studying for our pregnancy test

By leviticus20

Had an alien from Deep Space dropped in on Planet America during the pregnancy-pact apoplexy, he’d have concluded this and this alone: Kids having kids is not a bad thing. Kids conspiring to have kids: now that’s wicked. It doesn’t get much worse than a principal accusing kids of conspiring to have kids.

Fortunately, “progressive” America has inverted the natural order. Disapproving adults are ousted; errant schoolgirls embraced, even venerated. It was thus Oliver who got the chance to set the record straight on national television.

“No, there was definitely no pact,” she vowed. “There was a group of girls who decided that they were going to – they were already pregnant before they decided this – that they were going to help each other with their kids so they can finish school and raise their kids together. You know, to do the right thing was their decision, not let’s get pregnant like as a group.” (The CNN transcript has been cleaned-up; insert a “like” and a gormless grin after every other syllable.)

Ah yes, “doing the right thing,” preached preggie Peggy. Right and wrong are crystal clear here. Which is why the girls are where they belong – on GMA, poised for a media blitz, or even better, a book deal. Sullivan, on the other hand, is being slandered.

The principal was “foggy in his memory,” Mayor Kirk of Gloucester hissed. (Since Imus is otherwise occupied again, I’ll answer the rhetorical question he would have posed and answered: “Yes, the mayor is a woman.”) For his part, Superintendent Christopher Farmer went to great pains to distinguish between “a pact to become pregnant or a pact because we are pregnant.”

A pact after the fact or because of it: That is the “To Be Or Not To Be” of this vexing affair.
