Re-instate the original interpretation of the Constitution...or perish. Of course that won’t happen, so prepare for the coming collapse.

It's The Economy, Stupid.

No, it's not JUST the economy, the overall most important issue is "It's the Constitution Stupid!"

The economy and the other issues are subordinate to reclaiming the Constitution and the Republic. If we get back onto the right Constitutional path the other issues will follow.

It's always the economy, stupid ~ and it's still immoral to kill babies just to save them the pain of long term unemployment.

The SOCIAL CONSERVATIVES do not disagree with the jobs and financial issues. The ANTISOCIAL crowd do.

Frankly, we can't let the Libertarian faction take over the Republican party.

Social issues *always” take a back seat; social and Christian conservatives are always taken for granted by the GOP.

When looking at the big picture, I don’t think social issues are that important to governments.

Translation:

Vote for ROMNEY! Liberalism is the only way we can win!

No thanks, If we’re going to go liberal I’ll just stay home on election day, I will not eschew my principles and vote for any liberal just because they have a (R) by their name.. Conservative or nothing.

There is zero reason for Christian conservatives to compromise in this cycle, so moral compromise is off the table.

I live in north Texas. In this area even many churches that were small and struggling before are having to have building programs now.

A reduced circumstance results in time for introspection, which often brings people to God. For those focused on eternity, hard times in the temporal realm help lead others to eternal salvation.

The dose the US is getting has birthed the tea party movement, and the longer the socialists carry out their job and freedom destroying agenda the more people they will lose forever.

Communism, when it gets to this point always has to consolidate its gains in bloody purges of it enemies or be set back generations. Much of the Christian right would rather fight a civil war as the founding fathers did than compromise.

Without a moral foundation spending can not be reigned in any way.

As I like to point out most social issues are also economic issues. Almost everything the libs have done costs money. So cut off the funding and 80% of the social issues go away. Abortion = no government funding for elective procedures. Illegal immigration = securing jobs for Americans and ending welfare payments to non-citzens. Obamacare = Can't afford it. In every case, with the possible exception of gay marriage, there is both a moral and a fiscal part of the argument. Disband the Department of Education for constitutional or fiscal reasons, whichever you choose, so long as the job gets done.

That is exactly what Karl Marx said.

You can not have a viable government run on moral relativism. It is what we have been doing since Oliver Wendell Holmes.

You need Universal Truth for unity and for economy to work. Virtue is essential for a free country....non virtuous behavior always creates a need for government interference. Non-virtuous behavior always destroys other’s freedom.

Actually, Social issues are every bit as important as economic issues....to think you do not understand the writings of Gramsci and Horkheimer, Adorno and Marcuse... They understood the flaw in Marx—that they needed to undermine the social institutions to cause revolution....economics didn’t do it during the great depression and after WWII much to Lenin’s surprise.

Kill “under God” and destroy the intent of our Constitution based specifically on Natural Law Theory and God’s Law and you destroy the foundation which made this country’s greatness possible. Unity-—to one set of rules...God’s. No not allah’s rules, not atheist rules.....but God’s based on God’s design of the universe...where “cause and effect” creates logic and reason in the Baconian/Newtonian methods which got us to the moon....In other words—our Constitution worked for years, unlike any other method and in great contrast to atheist states.

.The very thing that is destroying our economic freedom IS the “social issues” which have allowed government to grab the power from the masses (for the “good” of the children.

Is maintaining our territorial integrity by enforcing immigration law a “social” issue?

The Constitution is the USA. Conservative or tea party candidates have to focus on getting back to our Constitution. Freedom uber alles, and every other issue follows suit. Explain to Americans how conservative, Constitutional ideals help everyone of every stripe, and create a free economy that encourages business. Help localities realize that their high taxes and their insane regulations are hurting local economies. Remind people that America is for Americans and welcome guests and immigrants. No one else belongs here, just as the local homeless don’t belong in your house unless you want them there.
