“I’m not opposed to incrementalism as a way to turn back the tide of child-murder”

M203M4, you have my respect for umm not using incrementalism in a negative way. I have never understood how incrementalism got a bad rap amongst conservatives. We cons arent opposed to change, we are opposed to radical change, untested ideas, uniform impositions and govt fiat. The one thing, in terms of change, we should be for is incrementalism. Which leads me back to the article I posted. Federalism allows for slow change either for what you believe or againt it. But it better than immediate change at the drop of a hat like a centralized federal government would do.

but the problem is not about incrementalism. it is the belief that federalism and states rights rights is more important than saving lives.

It’s this same mentality that allows ron paul to hide behind the constitution when we are threatened by islamists around the world.
