I am a social conservative. Having said that, I think the most promising way to achieve the kind of society I wish to live in is to return decision-making on these kinds of issues to the states.

I know how I feel when I contemplate having my life and future “owned” by Democrats with the power of nationalized health care and cap and tax . . . I’d describe it as a mixture of horrified, terrified and rebellious. I presume liberals feel the same way when thinking about social conservatives calling the shots in their lives. None of these issues should be federalized. I don’t think our FF intended for either side to have that kind of power. Allowing the states to decide these issues for themselves creates a more balanced and open society. People can move from state to state, if they wish, to find the company of those with whom they are comfortable.

The lefties know that their perveted morality cannot be legislated. People know the difference between right and wrong.

Long ago, socialist deviates knew they needed socialist courts to validate their agenda.
