Ah, but you see, those of either left or right, who wish to use the power of the federal government to advance their own social agenda, will hitch their issues onto whatever train happens to have momentum at that time.
I find it dismaying that so many conservatives are willing to throw away their freedom (and mine), and increase the power of the federal government over their own lives (and mine), simply because in one instance it happens to be a position they agree with. It is a very short-sighted attitude, and one that bites more often than it supports.
If the Tea Party branches out into social issues, it will become irrelevant and die. Guaranteed.
Maybe. Bit I don’t know any tea party folks who support homosexual marriage. We should not have to try to be PC just to avoid attacks from the media. Those attacks will come in any case. Most Americans believe marriage is between a man and a woman. Only a tiny minority of leftist extremists and virtually all journalists believe otherwise.
If that's true then explain why every state that held referendum on the perverted marriage issue rejected it. All 31 out of 31 states told the perverts NO. Even the blue liberal states.
What you claim is BS, The federal government shouldn't have power over the states regardless of the issue. <~~~notice the period
There is no values neutral goverment. Never has been, never will be.
Merely in the wet dreams of liber(al)tarians.
