the contempt for NAMBLA is the "official" stance. That's why the Dems REFUSED to except ANY sort of "philia" from the PROTECTED STATUS (nobody can say anything disapproving of them - it's a "hate"(thought) crime!!!) They're waiting patiently in the wings.

Why listen to advice from an opponent who will lie, cheat and steal to win??? 2. Same old irresponsible pot-smoking, 'let's mate like minks but don't YOU dare get pregnant' types who think fiscal responsibiliy magically grows from the seed of moral irresponsibility.
