That's why "social conservatives" are pushing to nominate SCOTUS judges who support federal anti abortion law?

Oddly enough, when you have a SCOTUS decision like Roe v. Wade which nationalises the abortion issue, and which is subsequently used to overturn any attempts at federalism on the issue, you sort of have to first get SCOTUS justices who will overturn the previous bad judicial interpretation before the issue can be returned back to the States. Get it?

That's why "social conservatives" have turned abortion into a general election platform?

Last I checked, an electoral platform was not law. An electoral platform is what a party uses as its guiding principles and which (generally) identify what a candidate from that party will tend to believe. And yes, if the social conservatives want to turn abortion into a general electoral point so as to see expansive and unconstitutional judicial activism (read Roe v. Wade) overturned, and returned to the States, then that's a point FOR federalism.

That's why "social conservatives" enacted law that takes my right to spend my money any way I please?

Without your being more specific, this point has absolutely no meaning.

That's why "social conservatives" have thrown out the separation of church and state by taxing me and giving my money to Pat Robertson?

If we want to be real technical about the Constitution, there IS no "separation of church and state". However, saying so does not make a person a "theocrat", it merely makes them a Constitutional literalist. As for "giving money to Pat Robertson", I'd have to ask for some eludication on this (linkie please?) because as it currently stands, this makes you sound like you are perilously close to being in "kook conspiracy theorist" country.....

Yes, I do "get it". That's how I know that your agenda is about more than states rights. Your SCOTUS choices are all big government socialists.

The Unlawful Internet Gambling Act. There was no public support for this abomination and the banking industry opposed it. This law was stealthily attached to the Port Security Bill and is pandering to James Dobson and his Focus On The Family pac.

Lol...
The info comes from Robertson's IRS form 990. It's published on every anti Faith Based Initiative site on the net, including some anti Faith Based Initiative sites that are Christian.
Do you want a link to a Secular or a Christian reference?
