Margaret Sanger lived from September 14, 1879 until September 6, 1966. Margaret Sanger was the founder of the American Birth Control League called [[Planned Parenthood]] today and was also a proponent of [[eugenics]] as was [[Alexander Graham Bell]], along with being a member of both the [[American Eugenics Society]] and the [[English Eugenics Society]]. <ref>http://www.all.org/abac/contents.txt</ref><ref>http://www.lifeadvocate.org/1_98/feature.htm</ref>

==Statements by Margaret Sanger==

"The most merciful thing that the large family does to one of its infant members is to kill it." <ref>http://www.bartleby.com/1013/5.html</ref>

"the mass of signficant Negroes, particularly in the South, still breed carelessly and disastrously, with the result that the increase among Negroes, even more than among whites, is [in] that portion of the population least intelligent and fit and least able to rear children properly." - Margaret Sanger - The "Negro Project" quoting [[W.E.B.

"Before eugenists and others who are laboring for racial betterment can succeed,
they must first clear the way for Birth Control. Like the advocates of Birth Control,
the eugenists, for instance, are seeking to assist the [[race]] toward the elimination of the unfit. Both are seeking a single end but they lay emphasis upon different methods. …"

"Organized charity is itself the symptom of a malignant social disease. Those vast complex, interrelated organizations aiming to control and to diminish the spread of misery and destitution and all the menacing evils that spring out of this sinisterly fertile soil, are the surest sign that our civilization has bred, is breeding and is perpetuating constantly increasing numbers of defectives, delinquents and dependents. My criticism therefore, is not directed at the ‘failure’ of philanthropy, but rather at its success" - Margaret Sanger, ''The Pivot of Civilization'' [NY: Brentano's, 1922], p. 108).<ref>http://www.worldwideschool.org/library/books/socl/socialconcerns/ThePivotofCivilization/chap6.html</ref>

"To each group we explained what contraception was; that abortion was the wrong way—no matter how early it was performed it was taking life; that contraception was the better way, the safer way—it took a little time, a little trouble, but was well worth while in the long run, because life had not yet begun."<ref><Sanger, Margaret (1938). An Autobiography. New York, NY: Cooper Square Press></ref>

In Margaret Sanger's book ''The Pivot of Civilization'' she also called for the elimination of "human weeds," for the segregation of "morons, misfits, and maladjusted," and for the sterilization of "genetically inferior races." <ref>http://www.ewtn.com/library/prolife/pp04a.txt</ref>

Marsupial

Marsupials are mammals having a pouch (known as the marsupium, from which the name 'Marsupial' derives) in females. The pouch is used to rear its young.

[[Fossil]] evidence, first announced by researcher M.J. Spechtt in 1982, no longer supports the once-common belief that marsupials were a primitive forerunner of the [[placental mammals]]: both main branches of the mammal tree appear to have evolved at around the same time, toward the end of the [[Mesozoic]] era, and have been competitors since that time. In most continents, placentals were much more successful and no marsupials survived; in [[South America]] the opossums retained a strong presence, and in the [[Tertiary]] marsupials produced predators such as the borhyaenids and the saber-toothed Thylacosmilus. In [[Australia]] placental mammals were not present throughout much of the Tertiary and marsupials and monotremes dominated completely. Native Australian placental mammals are more recent immigrants (e.g., the hopping mice).

The early birth of marsupials removes the developing young much sooner than in placental mammals, and marsupials have not needed to develop a complex placenta to protect the young from its mother's immune system. Early birth places the tiny new-born marsupial at greater risk, but significantly reduces the risks associated with pregnancy, as there is no need to carry a large fetus to full-term in bad seasons.

Because a newborn marsupial must climb up to its mother's nipples, the otherwise minimally developed newborn has front limbs that are much better developed than the rest of its body. This requirement is responsible for the more limited range of locomotory adaptations in marsupials than placental mammals; marsupials must retain a grasping forepaw for climbing and cannot develop it into a hoof, wing, or flipper as some groups of placental mammals have done.

There are about 334 species of marsupials, over 200 of them native to Australia and nearby islands to the north. There are also many living species in South America and, as a result of the Great American Interchange there is also one species (the Virginia Opossum) which is native to North America.

Examples of marsupials include [[kangaroo]]s, wallabies, [[wombats]], [[koala]]s, possums, opposums and tasmanian devils.

[[Image:Rick_Perry.jpg|right|thumb|100x|Texas Governor Rick Perry]]

James Richard "Rick" Perry (b. 1950) has served as the Republican Governor of Texas from December 2000, when he succeeded then-Governor [[George W. Bush]], to a term scheduled to last until 2010. A former Democratic state legislator who became a Republican in 1989, Perry was elected to a full term as governor in 2002, which he served, and then reelected to another full term in 2006 with only 39 percent of the vote. Previously he served as the agriculture commissioner (1991-1999), reflecting his background as a college graduate with a degree in animal science.

He was much criticized concerning his attempt in early 2007 to mandate by executive order the [[HPV vaccine]] for young girls as a condition of entering school. Defiant, Perry then felt he had no choice but to sign a bill overriding his mandate because it had been passed by a huge majority in both houses of the legislature.

He was criticized by the ''Dallas Morning News'' for traveling to Turkey in early June 2007 to give a speech to a "secret forum" on the topic of [[federalism]], which is not even a topic on which Perry has any established expertise.<ref>http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dws/news/nation/stories/DN-perry_31tex.ART.State.Edition1.43b926a.html</ref>

On June 15, 2007, Perry vetoed nearly 50 bills in one day.<ref>http://www.star-telegram.com/state_news/story/138969.html here</ref>.

House Bill 2006 would have added protections to property owners facing eminent domain proceedings and it was vetoed.

This article, as it stands now, is a cut and paste from the introduction of Wikiedpedia's Marsupial article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marsupial . If Conservapedia does not publish under the GDFL, then this material should be removed. --[[User:Mtur|Mtur]] 22:43, 7 March 2007 (EST)

This article does not respect rule nr 1 of conservapedia, "Everything must be true and verifiable."

"According to creation science theories, after the Flood, marsupials bred from the Ark passengers migrated to Australia during the post-diluvian diaspora. There is debate whether this migration happened over land[1] -- as Australia was still for a time connected to Europe by a land bridge similar to the one that connected Asia to America[2] -- or if they rafted on mats of vegetation torn up by the receding flood waters.[1] However, if these theories are correct it is not clear why no marsupials remained in the Middle East or Europe, and instead all decided to migrate to Australia and South America.

Another theory is that God simply generated marsupials into existence there.[Citation Needed] "
