Sometimes the checks & balances are pretty cool.
what happens when a bi-partisan arm of congress gets to be all independent from the current administration?
You get things like the GAO (US Government Accountability Office) telling the Dept. of Health & Human Services in a letter that their policy of grant-giving only to abstinence only education organizations may in fact be in violation of a Federal Law that says that information specifically designed to address sexually transmitted diseases must contain medically accurate information - including things like condom use.
Go go GAO!
Because, in spite of what the conservative right-wingers would like us to believe, the majority of Americans do actually support accurate sex education in school: Annenberg Public Policy Center Study released Nov. 6, 2006.
