Would you support this?

'In the latest New Yorker, Michael Specter has a positively chilling story on how theoconservatives and Christianists have waged a quiet war against some critical vaccines, especially against Human papillomavirus or HPV.

Becoming quite the conspiracy theorist, eh Afleitch?

Anyway, such a vaccine would be a wonderful addition to our arsenal of frankenbugs.  Like most Yanks, I'm a big fan of all sorts of drugs, as well as genetically modified bacteria, genetically modified foods, and all the rest.  So I'd not support such a bill (assuming the Focus on Family supported bill even exists, and I'm skeptical of that!) 

No point in getting so worked up over ghosts and faeries and dreamt-up legislation.

The actual item is not a "theory"; they're openly opposing it.  The only place where theory comes in is with regards to their motives, and no plausible theory leads to a good outcome in this region.

There are many theories here, Gabu, including yours that Afleitch doesn't look a bit crazy with his concern over this.  But that's okay.  You boys worry about whatever you like.  For example, there are also people who wear aluminum foil hats and lobby congress daily to go after the alien invaders who listen in on our thoughts.  I'm sure you, Afleitch, and Andrew Sullivan think their lobbying merit polls and posts as well.

Angus I was only quoting anothers opinion. It does not necessarily mean that it is my own. I only opened up Sullivans take on it for debate.

So please do not attack me for being a 'conspiracy theorist' when it isn't even my POV that is being put forward.

Not sure where I was going with all that.  I have a totally different vibe at the moment.  and it all seems even less relevant now than it did when I called you a conspiracy theorist.  Though the irrelevance of it all was the point of my diatribe.  I think.  Anyway, no offense intended.  Peace.
