Morality means right and wrong. Not only do we legislate morality all the time, we seldom legislate anything else, since a law is usually passed because the promoters think right and wrong are involved.

What those who claim “you can’t legislate morality” are really saying is that “you can’t legislate sexual morality.”

Now the libertarian position is at least internally consistent. Sexual morality and most other aspects of morality are all left unlegislated.

But I have never seen a logical rationale for the liberal position which leaves all sexual aspects of life (only) unregulated, while forcibly imposing their own system of morality in all other areas.

You’re right. All law is based on morality. The only question is whose moral system do we base law on.

When are you installing the trike kit?

That’s a beauty. Puts my Suz 1100 to shame.

Seems pretty clear to me....the framers designed our political system to keep all politics local...the feds have no business being involved in this issue at all

Kennedy already tipped his hand in Lawrence that same-sex ‘marriage’ is a bridge too far.

Notice he explicitly says that the decision does not apply to governmental recognition of any relationships, and that “abuse of an institution that the law protects” WOULD justify government involvement.

The sodomites that want to lean on Lawrence are leaning on very hollow ground.

Fed gov or State gov, there are some things they shouldn’t be ‘in’.

My Night Train’s been a trike for 2 years.

All the freshly painted “Vivid Black” parts are scattered around the shop, waiting for artwork.

Well, you did post that droolable picture. Glad you're not cheating on the Night Train. I had two motorcycles for a while, but I finally sold one.

...waiting for artwork.

And such lovely artwork it is.

You’re welcome...:)

[and you should know me well enough by now that if something sucks, I’m blunt enough to just say so but it *is* -seriously- good stuff]

You take PayPal yet?

CD Baby accepts Pay Pal. Digstation is a charge card only site. For curious cats watching, this ain’t sex entertainment, unless a song that features a dog finding a girlfriend and having champion hunting puppies counts :-). I’ll ask Jim Rob if it’s OK to post a vanity at night pimping the record, and if it is I’ll do just that.
