Actually, I thought Rush touched on something very important today. I didn't hear it all, so I don't know if he pursued it fully. Yes...liberals want to portray the GOP majority as having to do with religion, specifically gay marriage. But they're missing a big part of it.
Red America wants back the America where we, the people, elect legislators, governors, representatives, senators and presidents to make laws. Courts will decide if those laws comport with the constitution...otherwise they will see that the law is followed.
We DO NOT want courts writing our laws. That's what happened with gay marriage...the Mass. Supreme Court ordered the legislature to write a law a certain way...that was the last straw. I think people were saying, to some extent, we want the courts back in their place.
It didn't help the libs cause that the Mass. case came on top of insults to our values like the Ten Commandments, creche scenes, prayer at football games, etc. Courts have been showing a hostility to our values and religious practices and, on Tuesday, a huge swath of America told them to Freep off.
We also want fair elections where we don't have to worry about voter fraud. We want every voter to have to give identification to vote, along with proof of citizenship and residence when they register. We also want NO MORE EXIT POLLS from the media and no State called until all States have quit voting. Since we had to wait all night until the next morning this time, I don't think it makes a difference.
Shouldn't this color business be opposite? "RED" America ought to be the liberal side who wants socialist values. "BLUE" America should be the one who has republic values. I noticed all of this on election night...GW was always in RED and Kerry in BLUE. Almost every network carried their map like that.
