I started it? You categorized all libertarian-leaning folks are “limp-wristed pu$$ies”.
Yet another mental disorder on display.
I actually agreed with using Letter’s of M&R to hunt down terror cells in Countries where our military wouldn’t be allowed to go in to. I would have formed my own security company to do so.
I also supported removing Saddam from power and decimating Al Queda. I do not support the pussifying ROE that has caused all of this crap to drag out. Sh*t or get off the pot.
Barking up the wrong tree jackass.
Funny how they forgot to include that anywhere in the Constitution and Bill of Rights.

"We may have indeed started the fight. Bin Laden's stated reasons for his action against the U.S. include stationing U.S. troops in Islamic countries, U.S. trade sanctions against Iraq, and U.S. aid to Israel. If we were a libertarian country, bin Laden probably wouldn't have these "excuses" to attack us since we would have no troops stationed in the Middle East, no embargoes, and no foreign aid to Israel. Our tax dollars wouldn't have been used to "grow" bin Laden, his network, and the Taliban in times past. As a result, he might not have been strong enough to arrange the 9-11 hits. Perhaps we are simply reaping as we have sown; 9-11 may have been "blowback" from past U.S. policies."

Yes? And?
I’m purposing freedom to CHOOSE God. Not your tyranny that would use government to FORCE people to choose God.
Not even Jehovah went that far and gave us the ability to choose freely. A choice you are openly advocating taking away.
W was a social conservative who vastly increased the size,scope and cist of the federal government. Santorum the same also. When he started talking about banning porn....his campaign was toast.
Social conservatives also rallied to Akins defence and he single handedly set the pro life movement back with young woman for years.
If you can’t be truthful and have to use leftist lies, don’t debate. Freepers are not like democrats and bellieve whatever someone says. Santorum NEVER wanted to ban porn or was against women.
Do you accept the first amendment right to believe whatever a man wants to about god and, more importantly, not be bound by others beliefs about god?
Yes. I know. And? I didn’t write that and I don’t agree with it. So what does it have to do with me?
You’ve been here long enough to know better. But you still suck at this whole forum discussion thing.
Prayers up.
I did read their writings. They felt it would be a greater evil to force belief when even God didn’t do so.
They were right. Forced beliefs are nothing but evil themselves.
It must be chosen or it is worthless.
Whoever made that chart doesn’t understand what conservatives really believe.
So you follow EVERY rule in Leviticus?
You would have Congress go through and codify every last requirement?
Absolutely true.
"Suppose a nation in some distant region should take the Bible for their only law book, and every member should regulate his conduct by the precepts there exhibited! Every member would be obliged in conscience, to temperance, frugality, and industry; to justice, kindness, and charity towards his fellow men; and to piety, love, and reverence toward Almighty God ... What a Eutopia, what a Paradise would this region be." John Adams, February 22, 1756
"Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other." John Adams
"It is impossible to rightly govern the world without God and the Bible" George Washington
Read this one VERY carefully.
"Of all the dispositions and habits which lead to political prosperity, religion and morality are indispensable supports.... And let us with caution indulge the supposition that morality can be maintained without religion ... Reason and experience both forbid us to expect that national morality can prevail to the exclusion of religious principle." George Washington's Farewell Address
Furthermore, James Madison stated that the founding documents must always be considered in the correct context.
Here... This ought to make your head explode...
What this chart lists as ‘cnservatives’ should really be identified as those who hold both social conservative and neocon beliefs.
What does “Republican” mean?
Lots of Democrats switched to the GOP, and never abandoned the typical liberal Democratic party line.
The error seems not sufficiently eradicated, that the operations of the mind, as well as the acts of the body, are subject to the coercion of the laws. But our rulers can have authority over such natural rights only as we have submitted to them. The rights of conscience we never submitted, we could not submit. We are answerable for them to our God. The legitimate powers of government extend to such acts only as are injurious to others. But it does me no injury for my neighbour to say there are twenty gods, or no god. It neither picks my pocket nor breaks my leg. If it be said, his testimony in a court of justice cannot be relied on, reject it then, and be the stigma on him. Constraint may make him worse by making him a hypocrite, but it will never make him a truer man. It may fix him obstinately in his errors, but will not cure them. Reason and free enquiry are the only effectual agents against error. Give a loose to them, they will support the true religion, by bringing every false one to their tribunal, to the test of their investigation. They are the natural enemies of error, and of error only. Had not the Roman government permitted free enquiry, Christianity could never have been introduced. Had not free enquiry been indulged, at the aera of the reformation, the corruptions of Christianity could not have been purged away. If it be restrained now, the present corruptions will be protected, and new ones encouraged. Was the government to prescribe to us our medicine and diet, our bodies would be in such keeping as our souls are now. Thus in France the emetic was once forbidden as a medicine, and the potatoe as an article of food. -Thomas Jefferson.
Funny how it says exactly what I'm saying in my posts above.
