One thing I know: legalized pot and gay marriage has ZERO effect on my life and livelihood. If we sacrificed votes for opposing that, we failed. This country is at an economic abyss and I couldn’t give a damn about pot and gay issues.

Being amoral is no way to either improve your country or get to heaven. Plus it makes you stick out like a sore thumb on Jim’s forum. Oh, BTW, those were not national issues and had nothing to do with the Presidential results.

That’s quite all right, unless you’re running a “family values” centered business, and you’re forced to do something for a gay wedding because you don’t fall under the exemption for religious organizations.

Yes, but gay marriage makes God angry so there.

There’s a reason why liberals want this stuff. And it’s not because they want to maximize freedom. They know that culture matters. You don’t but that is why they won.

[This country is at an economic abyss and I couldn’t give a damn about pot and gay issues.]

This country is at an economic abyss because the economic infrastructure reflects the systemic amoral deconstruction of the society in which it exists.

A population that accepts being stoned and perverted as “normal” can not produce a lawfully ordered and productive economy.

Only a matter of time before taxpayers fund their pot and sodomy becomes part of the school curriculum.

Would it matter to you then?

Maybe what you don’t understand is that, since the 1960’s, the radical left has ensured that the “social issues” are forever intertwined with the political issues.

They made it that way, not we, by legislating morality.

You need to understand that we cannot give up those issues and expect to “win,” in either sense of the word (winning political issues and winning by spreading conservative principles.)

They are intertwined. And I, for one, am going focus more on the social issues than ever before, because I don’t want our side “to win,” if it means turning our back on God’s teaching and conservative principles and traditional morality.

We are losing the economic battle in this country because we are afraid to engage the conservative argument, which is the stronger, more irrefutable argument, on all the issues, including the social issues.

I think that's incorrect. They change, drag down, the culture in which my children live and make it more dangerous. Cultures are proven in the petrie dish of time. This venture will be proven virulent....again. As it has been so proven for millennia and rejected again and again. We're just too dumb to realize that the reason they are rejected has a basis in experience and fact from generations prior that we have forgotten.

couldnt;’ careless about homosexual amrriage, hey, you have any idea that this is not just about marriage, it is forced on the kdis in schools, forced on churches, forced on people who do not accept this anal sex crap

No you care about you right, not the country or the kids or the future, all about you and you are on a conservative website saying this.

YOU are the reason why conservatism has failed in this country. Becaue you don’t “give a damn about pot and gay issues”, you and millions of social liberals like you have no way in Hell of making a difference on other conservative issues like the economy and unemployment.

Welfare? Our failed foreign policies? Abortion? Socialism? Our excuse of an educatiosal system?

All your fault.

Because you have FAILED to keep the basic tenets of traditional American moral conservatism, you have let loose the greatest Obamanation our Nation has ever seen.

Hope your happy.
