But you DO disrespect JR when you marginalize his support of Fred.

Fred’s opposition to the Marriage Protection Amendement is based on sound Federalist principles ~ he’s not endorsing gay marriage!

If so many Americans ~ tens of millions you say ~ know Dobson’s name and “deeply respect his judgement,” why hasn’t HE been drafted as a conservative alternative for POTUS?

“Fred’s opposition to the Marriage Protection Amendement is based on sound Federalist principles.”

Please explain to me how amending the Constitution, as the founders provided for in the original document, violates “federalism”?

Do you support repeal of the amendment that outlaws slavery in all 50 states? Explain why the concept of “federalism” is more important than universal guarantees.

Explain the difference, for example, between universally guaranteeing the right to keep and bear arms, and leaving it to all 50 states to do so? Do you believe New York should be free to suspend the RKBA? If not, why not?

Explain some consistent, logical principle by which you presumably support some universal guarantees that clearly violate “federalism,” but oppose others.
