Remember Prohibition?

Remember how a Constitutional Amendment was required to ban alcohol?

I don’t remember any anti-drugs Constitutional Amendments, just the FedGov grabbing more power for itself.

I don’t think that Ron Paul wants to remove state laws regarding drugs.

Ron Paul believes in a Limited Constitutional Government.

There are many things the Federal Government does that the Constitution does not empower the Federal Government to do.

Ron Paul and Tea Party Conservatives want to Federal Government to stop interfering where the Constitution does not explicitly enable them to interfere.

I’m sure there are types of Conservatives that don’t agree with the tea party and want more Federal Government. Perhaps that the type of Conservative that you are?

There are lots of Conservatives like that. People who call themselves “Conservative” and want to ban a whole bunch of things. Because they call themselves “Conservative”, if they want the Federal Government to do something, it’s automatically considered Conservative. “Conservative”, to them, is whatever they, a “Conservative”, wants to do.

That must be the type of “Conservative” that you are. “Conservative” is whatever you like at any particular moment, and often it means Big Government.

Nice try but you lose more credibility with very post.

The type of conservative I am is the same type who owns and operates this conservative website. If you have a problem with that then you have a problem with him and perhaps you should be pushing your pro-heroin, surrender-monkey candidate somewhere else.
