Hey, I like the give & take of open discussion as much as anyone.
What I don't like is to see my deepest convictions trashed on a site that is supposed to be a haven for the like minded.
Although I wouldn't speak for the owner I suspect this is how how feels as well.
Instead of constructing straw man arguments maybe you should give this some thought.
I don’t mean to be flip, but I’ll give it serious thought the second freepers make serious posts about why we should consider social issues more important than national security and fiscal restraint issues.
If this nation isn’t secure from jihadists (Muslims are breeding at a rate 7 times that of the rest of the world population), within a decade or so, we’re not going to be talking about abortion at all because we’ll be too busy dodging truck bombs at Home Depot.
If this nation doesn’t get a handle on entitlement spending (that battle has already been lost, imo, but Rudy just might be the man to take it on), then France is going to look like a paradise compared to the US in terms of socialist spending.
Bump. Well said.
