She is adamantly against same-sex marriage. I was surprised when I read about her joining that board.
I’m a big believer in attempting to be “salt and light,” but this goes too far.
No.
American conservatism, and this free republic, are rooted in a moral understanding of the universe. Natural right. Natural law. Dependence on the One Who created us.
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men..."
Our second President, John Adams, summed it up very well:
"We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Avarice, ambition, revenge or gallantry would break the strongest cords of our Constitution as a whale goes through a net. Our Constitution is designed only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate for any other."
I agree with you. Been a freeper since the 90's and this site is beginning to go over the edge with hate and tinfoil hat bologna...
>>>“Same Sex Attraction Disorder” sheesh.
They’re not pedophiles anymore - they’re “MAPs” - “Minor-Attracted Persons”. Really.
you have big ears
[ Can you not be gay and conservative at the same time?
You could probably be quietly gay and conservative. ]
As long as they aren’t out actively “recruiting” and “doing it in the road” and understand that limiting government power is a good way to keep them out of your bedroom then it is possible.
But far too many in the gay community are under the mistaken impression that to protect what they do in the privacy of their own homes they have to buddy-buddy up with big government. They fail to realize that it make it far easier for the system to turn onthem in the future and strip them of their rights.
Failure to understand inherent rights is a classic symptom of being a liberal.
The “gay community” would be far better served by joinging the Libertarian party in the Long run, but the lust for power in the Democrat/Liberal idealogies is just to attractive in the short term.
The gay Lobby also need to realize that even according to their “patron saint Kinsey” they will never be more than 10% of the population and as a “perpetual minority” they shouldn’t expect overt acceptance and praise for their lifestyle. However they do have the same rights as everyone else in terms of not being prosecuted by the state for their lifestyle unless it infriges upon other people’s person or private property.
By the way, the author documents Breitbart admitting he isn’t a conservative, but a libertine.
If gays harm anyone, they harm themselves. And 'government out of my bedroom' means 'government out of everybody's bedroom'.
Children are being conditioned by her stand into believing something “evil” and destructive—by Teleological and Natural Law standards, as well as by all traditional religious standards—is “good”. She can’t be Conservative.
It does not surprise me that Ann Coulter with her bizarre worldview which contains incompatible ideas—Conservatism and Pro-homosexuality—does not have any children.
She has no concept of the process of creating “worldview” for children and cares nothing about their Brave New World future she is trying to promote—that which dissolves biological relationships. She is evil to promote ideas which deny children their fundamental right to have both a biological mother and father. She is advocating the silencing of the Bible and all the principles that made this country so successful.
Children with biological parents are the most likely children to be protected emotionally and physically from all abuse—including molestation. Break up the natural family—and have no genetic interest in the child—they are much more likely to be sexually abused as well as emotionally abused.
She thinks you can actually teach children, up is down, that urges are the determination of morality, that thousands of years of morality and the ideas of the Founders are incompatible with Freedom—when it is the very foundation of freedom. She is no Conservative when she adopts this cultural Marxism. Shame on her!
“…the man who in his essays proclaims the normalcy of his affliction [i.e., homosexuality], and in his art the desirability of it, is not to be confused with the man who bears his sorrow quietly. The addict is to be pitied and even respected, not the pusher.”
Dear God how I miss William F. Buckley.
You’re very confused. This has nothing to do with anybody’s bedroom. It has to do with perversion they are stridently bringing into the public square, and trying to force Americans AND THEIR CHILDREN to accept as a positive good.
The Left would sure like us to believe that steaming pile of cow dung, that's for sure.
While ignoring the fact that in 31 of 31 instances of the people getting to vote on it, OUR SIDE WON.
the problem, as always, is not individual homosexuals but the wealth and legal clout of the big homosexual organizations.
Big Gay has millions and milliojns of dollars, and Ann is just adding to their clout. They sue and lobby and produce big advertising campaigns. GLAAD and the Human Rights Council (one of the wealthiest) are lobbying your representatives in your state capitol and inDC as we speak.
They want homosexual sex education in the schools, they want to take over mainline churches (and those churches’ wealth, buildings, investments etc.), they want free sex-change operations for jail and prison inmates and endless ‘diversity training’ programs in all the federal agencies. More money for Big Gay; corporations and federal bureaucracies forced to hire these ‘diversity training’ groups and pay them a great deal for very little.
Not that there isn’t Gay Rodeo, Gay Olympics, Gay softball leagues etc. that do not admit heterosexuals.
If Ann is helping to empower these big, bullying, wealthy gay organizations, then shame on her.
I repeat, it has nothing to do with homosexual *individuals*.
I hate it when I hear of people voting for some homosexual legislation because ‘my son (or whoever) is gay’.
It has nothing to do with people’s relatives or loved ones.
Of course the big wealthy homosexual organizations put out a constant stream of press rleases and propaganda that it’s all about the individual. It is not.
-- Thomas Jefferson"God who gave us life gave us liberty. Can the liberties of a nation be secure when we have removed a conviction that these liberties are the gift of God? Indeed I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just, that his justice cannot sleep forever."
You can not be conservative and PROMOTE the idea that something that goes against Natural Law Theory and God’s laws—is normal and “good” and should be encoded by law that “up is down”.
She can be gay and Conservative—but only if she acknowledges what the Founders did—that homosexuality is a sin when acted upon. It is nihilism and destructive to the body and destroys the very Foundation of our Conatitution and the idea of “Natural Rights” which come from God.
She is removing God’s standards of right and wrong and inserting Andrew Sullivan’s or Charles Mansons, or .....you put whomever...that is what moral relativism is....anyone else’s standards of “right and wrong”—not God’s which is the Objective Truth our country was formed on (Conservatism)—and where Natural Rights originates-—only from God, not governments, not Ann Coulter, not .....
“Ann has stepped in it ,and she cannot get it off her shoe.”
She’ll double down, probably. The difference between Ann Coulter and a snapping turtle? Sometimes the turtle lets go.
This entire thing is unnecessary, unwise and unwell.
Norquist has been gay friendly for years. And Muslim friendly. And a vector for open borders and amnesty for illegals in Washington.
I don’t know why anyone who calls themselves conservative would pay much, if any, attention to anything he says.
And his promotion of Perry should be a huge warning flag for all.
“This sort of thing brands this site as a home for wingnuts.”
