Sadly, you are the one labeling conservatives as "authoritarians." True conservatives know that government is the last thing to "cure" moral and fiscal malaise.

Only authoritarians think government laws "forbidding" moral weaknesses and failings can cure anything. Ansel, WHY didn't the Constitution state that drunkenness, gambling, prostitution, abortion (yes, it was around then), and homosexuality were banned? Why does government need to do it now?

Wow, you and your pro-abortion arguments, you think the founders of this nation deliberately left it as some sort of constitutional right?
