If libertarians are correct, and we can be socially liberal but otherwise conservative, then why do socially liberal places such as San Francisco, Vermont, and Massachusetts become so socialistic and anti-military?

If Massachusetts is so anti-military, then on my commute home every day, why do I see all those signs on highway overpasses welcoming back family members from Iraq? Why do I see highway overpasses decorated with the flags of the Army, Navy, Air Force, and Marine Corps?

You may indeed see pro-military sentiment in Massachusetts. Do you think it’s coming from the lefties in Cambridge or from the people who engineered same sex “marriage” in your state?

Last time I checked, Massachusetts had two leftist anti-military senators, one of whom has a plaque honoring him in the Communist museum in Ho Chi Minh City for his anti-American conduct and fraudulent testimony. Last time I checked, the entire state House delegation was composed of anti-military leftist, socialist Democrats such as Barney Frank and John Olver.

There are still patriots in Massachusetts and they no doubt honor our troops with banners and support, but they’re sure as hell outvoted.

I expect that all those pro-troops banners were hoisted by the same type of people who tried valiantly to block the homosexual agenda in Massachusetts. Do you think the gay “marriage” and “abortion rights” crowd made those banners?
