All of the "Fred Heads" should take note of this quote:

"...There is a tide in the affairs of men,Which, taken at the flood, leads on to fortune;Omitted, all the voyage of their lifeIs bound in shallows and in miseries.--William Shakespeare, Julius Caesar (1599)2.

Let us face it usually on FR , when we say "conservative" we mean "pro-life." Nothing else matters. This is a thin reed to build a party on.

It is a good thing we Evangelicals have no lock step nomination in mind. We never did anyhow, but now we will have to address what is the proper conservative position and to what degree do we choose to have government interfere in the lives of others who do not believe as we.

Altogether, I think this is a favorable change in the party. The only question is whether it is favorable short term--it surely is favorable long term.

You have bought the twisted lies of liberals and ignore the interference liberalism and even libertarianism places on all. Take a few giant steps back and look at the bigger picture. When public school children are being taught to think homosexuality is just another choice equal to heterosexuality, I would call that interfecence. Etc. Everyone's political position causes some sort of interference for those who disagree with it.
