Sure they are socially liberal, but fiscally conservative.
Right now we’re on the brink of fiscal collapse - so pick which is more important to you.
Collapse or gay marraige?
Going broke or potheads?
No jobs or no nanny state?
Easy.
Which means they are NOT conservatives. You can't be a social liberal and conservative.
And our fiscal problems are not related to ANYTHING that you listed.
No, they are liberals who don't like taxes.
Right now we’re on the brink of fiscal collapse - so pick which is more important to you.
Conservatism is not about picking one thing.
Collapse or gay marraige [sic]?
Please explain how embracing sodomy helps the economy in any way.
Going broke or potheads?
One of the dumbest things I've ever read here.
No jobs or no nanny state?
I would prefer that the abortionists were unemployed.
Do you know what being a social liberal and a fiscal conservative really means?
It means you want all the social programs that cost tons of money but you want someone else to be taxed to pay for them. We have cousins in California who are like that and call themselves social liberals and fiscal conservatives. It doesn’t work.
AS far as Ron Paul is concerned, we lived in his district and met him when he ran for his first political office. We didn’t vote for him because we decided he was a nut, nothing has changed, he is STILL a nut.
Society falls from within. We can bounce back from an economic crisis, but if we don’t have the morals, we WILL end up in anarchy and what good is the money going to do us then, even if we do have it, which we won’t.
Fiscal stability cannot happen or last without moral stability. Morals come first. Without moral restraint, someone or something is needed to enforce order and security and show me one tyrannical government enforcing their brand of order and security that is flourishing and worth living under.
FReepers fear nobody. We just are awake enough to recognize the dangers facing us and determined to warn people about them. If you want to continue to live in your pot induced stupor, go right ahead, but you’d be more welcome at DU. They think just like you do.
Come to think of it, what IS your screen name over there?
