But why open up a second, unnecessary front on the battlefield?

We're not the ones opening up the front; they are.

And you expect us to tie our hands behind our backs, while they take away our freedoms of speech and thought?

I'm saying there is more than one way to skin a cat.
If Republicans go off the mandate they were elected on and start making a lot of unnecessary noise about the stuff they always lose elections over, then they will have a very short tenure in the majority.

People want to feel that Republicans are doing what they were elected to do, which is reign in spending, shrink the size of government, and return liberty to the People.

If they do that, then all of these other issues will fall into place, because they are all outcroppings of government run amok, getting involved in areas where it doesn't belong, sometimes where it is strictly prohibited by the Constitution.

Return Constitutional Government, and freedom of speech and thought will be restored, and "social justice" — the bastard child of Big Government — will shrivel up and die.
