You must be brighter than me. I have not seen one of my tenants move right in thier thinking. The entitlements they all get seem to be a career choice to be handed down. I will start paying closer attention so as to observe the move to the right. I have some third generation welfare people with subsidized rent, food stamps, wic, etc. How long before I see the move? If they don't make a move soon, me and a bunch of other business people will be forced to throw in the towel due to taxes and regulations.
Too late. The government is not only in the way, it is aggressively pushing forward with so-called hate-crime legislation, government-supported abortion and euthanasia hidden in footnotes of Obamacare, promotion of gay marriage through the courts, and forcing open the military ranks to practicing homosexuals.
Liberals today are hell bent on using government to promote abortion, homosexuality, the destruction of the traditional family, and to silence and marginalize those who are opposed to this despicable agenda. To concentrate on fiscal conservatism to the exclusion of these important social issues is to cede a vital front of the war to the enemy.
The war is already joined. We cannot remain passive. This war MUST be fought on BOTH fronts. Lose either front, and we will ultimately lose the war.
Screw you, ZOTTED troll!
The Constitution protects the RIGHT TO LIFE! Abortion is KILLING!
Looky here, VAfakeDoc got the ZOT.
And pay particular attention to Virginia when Jefferson was Governor.
Their personal opinions on abortion don't matter to you, because you are not an unborn child and you apparently care very little about those who are. But for the lives that stand to be violently ended by abortion, and for those who recognize the value of those lives, the opinion of Congress on the matter is vital.
And saying that the states, not Congress, should decide on abortion is sheer evasion. The states cannot decide the matter. Why not? Because Congress is full of lawmakers whose personal opinions are pro-abortion, and the president often is pro-abortion, too, and so they fill the Supreme Court with justices who will protect abortion.
I understand that you don't care much whether or not the unborn are killed. But you have to understand that many others are not going to accept a Republican Party that is purportedly too busy cutting spending to bother about abortionists cutting up babies.
‘they’re taking a Fundamentalist stance’
First time I’ve heard the Catholic Church called ‘Fundamentalist’.
That was then, this is now. Now the government, and in particular the schools, are the main engines for promoting leftism and immorality. This battle has been raging for decades. We cannot unilaterally disarm. So long as our federal and state governments privilege and promote homosexuality, abortion and atheism then we will continue to produce "citizens" who lack the morality and rationality to provide for themselves and will instead vote for subjugation to the government.
Without papering over important differences, we all ought to be able to figure out a way to get behind the campaign to stop the liberal elite from taxing and regulating us into living our lives the way they think is proper.
Telling schoolchildren that they must accept homosexuality (and worse) as moral and that there is no God is the worst-spent government funding and the worst-conceived government regulation there is.
I agree that these things should not be federal issues. (They only are due to leftist judicial activism.) They should be decided in State legislatures (not courts). But the Tea Party movement is directed at all levels of government and I believe that Tea Party candidates for State legislature seats should campaign on all issues, including abortion, homosexuality, and government-enforced atheism.
Hey troll, trotting out the old “I know some gay guys and they are clean cut, monogamous, never visit Thailand to rape little boys, they’re against same sex marriage and gays in the military and they’re really nice quiet fellows” is way, way overused.
I know some homosexuals and some are okay but misled and some are rabid demoniac people.
If homosexuals didn’t like the “gay” agenda we’d hear them cricize it.
CRICKETS!

No one is disagreeing with you. Just in the timing. Fight one battle at a time, then go to the next one.
Trotting out the old “I know some gay guys and they are clean cut, monogamous, never visit Thailand to rape little boys, they’re against same sex marriage and gays in the military and they’re really nice quiet fellows” is way, way overused. Furthermore, it’s a LIE.

In my part of the country, the money has run out and the state isn't going into debt to continue the bennies so even the eternal dole recipiants are getting hit.
I primarily referred, however, to the formerly working poor and middle class - many of whom are showing up in conservative churches for the first time in their lives.
Here in the Sherman/Dennison area, many of the evangelical churches are experiencing explosive growth.
I go to a small outreach church intended to reach drug users and alcoholics and lead them to a saving relationship with Christ. I have seen a lot of people working on changing themselves who (I suspect) would not be persevering were their economic prospects up to keeping them in the nigh perpetual state of inebriation they were in before.
Wrong. Conservative Republicans win elections, socially leftist Rs do not (except maybe in MA which is a lost cause right now anyway).
By turning the GOP into a socially moderate "Dem-lite" party elections are LOST!
You have a rattlesnake poised to sink its fangs into your ankle, and a constrictor about to coil itself around your neck. Which battle do you attend to first?

BRAVO!
IATZ!

Too bad he dallied on this thread! HA HA.
Troll sighting!!

Ouch! Well, Doc, we won't be calling a Corpsman for you so I guess you'll just have to bleed out.
