No, social conservatism isn't just the rage today. It's been there all along but because we have these so-called Republicans that think conforming to political correctness is the correct thing to do social conservatives have been pushed aside. Doesn't protecting future generations from the War on the Unborn count for anything? Isn't it self serving to claim to be "tough on terror" when you support the "pro-choice" movement. Isn't it hypocritial to say you're "tough on terror" all the while you restrict the RTKBA and sue manufacturers of firearms. It is after all your first responsibility to protect your family and yourself. Isn't it hypocritical to say you're pro-family but yet denigrate marriage with "civil unions". I see nothing civil with homosexual relationships.
Take a good look at the Republican Party Platforms. See where Rudy fits in...I think you will find that he is more in line with the Democratic Party Platforms.
What good is defending this nation from terrorists if we continue to kill our unborn and forfeit our God given rights?
What good is it to protect a country from terrorists that we are going to destroy from the inside out by our actions? Every strike against life, every waffling to weaken the bill of rights for PC reasons, every restraint on the 2nd amendment means we are getting further and further away from America.
And one of the problem with presidential choices that don’t consider the whole range of the person is the fact that they appoint judges. Who will be shaping things for years and years to come. It’s not just a president for one or two terms...it’s the policy that gets shaped and the judges that get picked that continue long after they step down.
You have to consider what that man in the White House stands for in toto. Because you will be living with the results of that election for years into the future.
