Oh come on, it's the 'problem' that never goes away!! Both parties have those within their midst that believe government knows best. And of course if the federal government sets a standard, they'll whine about that. The federal government will change it, and others will whine about that. It's the perpetual call of big government lovers, be they social 'conservatives' or far leaning lefties.
That's what will rot this nation from within. It won't be the boogeyman Islamowhatevers, it won't be the mean Chinese with a booming economy, it will be those that believe the federal government should be involved in anything and everything that will drag this nation to its demise.
And then there are those of us who want the government to do the job they’re supposed to do, instead of interfering in our lives and ordering the death of innocent citizens. But please, don’t let the truth get in the way of your agenda.
I can't help but notice that your tagline is very inconsistent with your views which totally contradict the principles upon which our Republic was founded.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, [emphasis added is mine]
-- The Declaration of Independence
We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
-- The Constitution of the United States
It is abundantly clear that the Founding Fathers declared our independence AND formed our constitutional republic to protect life.
