Can you pass the SC GOP Sex Pledge?

The question is not "can" a person pass.

The question is "who in the hell would want to"?

I think the real question is who wouldn't?

More like, I pledge to only have sex with my wife until someone younger comes along.

I wonder if Deany realizes this is 1 county, and not the NATIONAL GOP in general or even the STATE GOP in general??

They are just saying out loud what most of the base thinks. Look at Rick Santroum and Michelle Bachmann.

Link citing this statistic please?

Picky, picky, picky. What, you're not satisfied with a "most" of two?

You must uphold the right to have guns, all kinds of guns.

You must endorse the idea of a balanced state and federal budget, whatever it takes, even if your primary responsibility is to be sure the county budget is balanced.

You must favor, and live up to, abstinence before marriage.

You must be faithful to your spouse. Your spouse cannot be a person of the same gender, and you are not allowed to favor any government action that would allow for civil unions of people of the same sex.

You cannot now, from the moment you sign this pledge, look at pornography.
