this is from the AP and appears in several news sources besides Fox. it gives an interesting "heads up" on what kind of smears to expect in the next few weeks.

Among the claims:
_ A 6-3 liberal majority Supreme Court that results in rulings like one making gay marriage the law of the land and another forcing the Boy Scouts to "hire homosexual scoutmasters and allow them to sleep in tents with young boys." (In the imagined scenario, The Boy Scouts choose to disband rather than obey).
_ A series of domestic and international disasters based on Obama's "reluctance to send troops overseas." That includes terrorist attacks on U.S. soil that kill hundreds, Russia occupying the Baltic states and Eastern European countries including Poland and the Czech Republic, and al-Qaida overwhelming Iraq.
_ Nationalized health care with long lines for surgery and no access to hospitals for people over 80.
The goal was to "articulate the big picture," said Carrie Gordon Earll, senior director of public policy for Focus on the Family Action. "If it is a doomsday picture, then it's a realistic picture," she said.

"I have often wondered why they are so concerned with the not-yet-born while so easily disregardful of the actually born. "
That is one of those points to ponder, isn't it?

"Personally....I take a tremendous amount of offense to the blanket statement that all single parents are lacking in character and integrity."
Meh, I don't, and I am one.
