Thanks for your response, Jim. I agree with you 100%. I wish FR would go back a bit more to its libertarian roots, but I understand that people’s views can change over time. I do agree that those “Republicans” who allow gays rights via the law based on their bedroom behaviors are not worth supporting.
Great thread, and I’m glad you go that off of your chest.
Has nothing whatsoever to do with “bedroom behavior.” It’s the public in your face and down our kids throats behavior that is intolerable. Keep it off our public squares, out of our playgrounds, out of our parks, out of our public restrooms, off our streets, out of our schools, out of our churches, off of our TV, out of our movies, out of our judiciary, out of our military, out of our government and out of our faces!! Take it back to your private bedrooms. Thankyouverymuch!!
Libertarians are liberals in disguise.
they want limited government with no restraints at all, abortion legal, homosexuality legal, open borders, to name a few. What they claim they stand for is really anarchy and will destroy this country.
Our Founding Fathers were a VERY moral bunch of men and didn’t seem to think that laws against the butchering of babies and sodomy were *unconstitutional*.
This is an EXCELLENT video explaining the different types of governments and is only about 10 minutes long.

Jim, did FR initially have libertarian roots? Conservatism does not equate to libertarianism, although I see a lot of libertarians who like to insinuate that there is no difference between the two.
If you think homosexuals keep their behavior localized to the bedroom -- vs. politicizing everything -- you haven't kept in touch with the recent Connecticut controversy re: cross-gender use of bathrooms...not the first time that has come up.
Nor have you been aware of homosexuals expressing their sexuality in every public venue possible.
