Anyone else annoyed at the words "family values"?

[yy4me]

Every time I see those two words, I am insulted and enraged. By using those two words in their political propaganda, the do-nothings in Washington are insulting me, my family, my counrty. We were brought up to be respectful, to love and care for each other, to work hard. When I hear "family values " used as though it is a state attainable by only the "on Gods side" republicans, I want to throw something. We are all here in our little place in the universe and I'm sure almost all of us have established our own real standards, not some hollow two word phrase. During the presidential campaign, the use of this phrase, even by the democrats did not ring true. It is meaningless, ambiguous and used in the context of politics, is insulting. We are a great nation because of who we are and what we can do that is good for ourselves as individuals, families and for the world community. Please, enough of this "family values". Can we get down to real work, not just platitudes and religious propaganda?
