It is NOT my RIGHT to impose my views on others. As a Democracy our laws should represent a middle of the road perspective. It is the only way it will work.

The whole point on states deciding is it lets us as voters have an impact on what we allow our government to do. That is the EXACT reason why I no longer live in New England.

Any issue is up for compromise and the beauty of letting the states decide is you as an individual can decide which state best suits your beliefs and views and not that of some left loon whacko like Pelosi.

I am a pro-life person all the way but I also understand that a Federal ban on abortion will be just as bad as the extreme position Obama is taking. I also believe there are legitimate cases where abortion should be allowed, incest, rape, etc.

You didn't answer my question: Which other unalienable rights are you willing to "let the states decide" upon?

As a Democracy our laws should represent a middle of the road perspective.

A) We're not a "Democracy," we're a republic. The rule of law, not the rule of the mob. And B) "Middle of the road" is just another name for roadkill.

Your own posts make it crystal clear that you're not.
