McDumbass and the rest of the GOP moderates are idiots. Social ssues like gay marriage, abortion, are just that: social isues that ARE NOT THE PERVIEW OF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. They are states-rights, hot-button issues that political parties use to win votes.
The federal government, and likewise any presidential candidate, should be concerned with the defense of the country, border control, international trade and relations, Constitutional issues, and the like... policies that affect the entire country. For a candidate to keep addressing a social issue, let alone use it as a major campaign point, is a sellout move from day one which underlines the utter idiocy of the entire “compassionate conservatism” crowd.
Maybe so, but I will not vote for a candidate who does not agree with me on social issues. That’s why I liked Palin and hope she runs in 2012.
