How did you get
promoting abortion, open borders, drugs, porn, the homosexualizing of the military and the gay agenda
out of people voting for tea party heros? IIRC the whackobirds thing came from Rand Paul speaking out against using UAV's in the USA. Lots of Libertarians like Ted Cruz for the same reason you do.
I do not look to you as an authority on LP thoughts and beliefs. You cannot read and comprehend a simple paragraph. Go bother someone else.
Screw...the LP platform. So to speak.
It is what it is.
Which church do you want to decide marriage for America? Which religion?
Any and all churches? Any and all religions?
Way to play games.
For one thing, that was John McCain that made the remark, and it had nothing to do with social liberalism.
The article, and your posts, are about moving left on social issues, to become more rinolike/libertarian on social issues, to appeal to young voters and libertarians.
The tea party is not made up of social liberals, in fact it is the opposite.
So you believe it’s a liberal job to grow government and your job to KEEP IT FROM SHRINKING??? That’s what you said. I WANT GOVERNMENT AT ALL LEVELS TO SHRINK at least to its Constitutional limits. I don’t care WHO runs big government, I DON’T WANT IT. EVER.
Except for the military, and immigration, the constitution does not say the fed has anything to do those other items.
Every state has its own laws regarding divorce, adoption, etc, and that is as it should be-some states are community property states, some are not, etc.
The constitution says the fed can maintain a military, and makes the rules for immigration from other countries. I don’t see anything about private issue regulation there, none at all.
States make their divorce and adoption laws, and the people of that state decide. Where it goes is up to them, and should be-we are not all the same.
I do not believe personal issues are the business of the government, period-I said just that, several times-it is a slippery slope at best. I’m not going to go snipe hunting.
Well, they aren’t just personal issues if the feds and state governments are right to make law regarding them, as you agree they constitutionally do.
Frankly your posts seem confusing and confused.
“With libertarian candidates we lose 2 to 4% of the vote against the socialist “
That’s actually wrong. The notion that Republican candidates are losing votes to Libertarian ones is patently false. The majority of the Libertarians are younger and most like to vote Dem. So, in fact, the Dems are losing voters to Libertarian candidates.
I know people think Republicans and Libertarians are closely related so any vote for a Libertarians must have come from a Republican voter, but that isn’t true at all. Most of the Libertarian voters I have talked to have been from the Democrat side.
I’ll consider that “fever” when I see the list of cabinet level departments he promises to zero out.
How about I follow the rules of my Christian Lord and you follow whatever suits YOU. Don’t impose yours on me and I will likewise refrain. Ok?
Agreed. Once the Federal government has usurped the power to regulate anything you willingly ingest, it has usurped the power to regulate everything you willingly ingest.
The guy hasnt noticed that the gay agenda is to accumulate governmental power for itself. The ENDA law, for instance, aims not at ending discrimination but at suppressing all public opposition to their behavior.
My chose is the Catholic Church, because the Catholic definition has too components: 1) the religious :Marriage is matrimony, and sacrament in which the small church of husband and wife are ministers of grace; 2) the non-religious” Marriage is a natural institution fconsisting of of a man and woman and their anticipated offspring. This definition arise as the experience of two thousand years or more of western history. If anyone wants to learn about the historical development of the family in western society from the Middles ages until recently, the form of family which modernists have sought since the 18th Century to disestablish,read Marriage and the Family in the Middle Ages by Frances and Joseph Gies,Harper and Row, 1987.
Dead Corpse: “Don’t leave them any other choice.”
How do you propose to accomplish that? By electing libertarian candidates? Not likely.
Very VERY well said Grace.
THAT is how you explain Libertarianism to people, we should NOT embrace big government when the pendulum swings back to our side.
Power Corrupts and being on the right doesn't make you immune.
Why do you insist there can be only one Church for America?
Didn’t both England and Russia try that with really bad results?
You are delusional...
Agreed.
But the TEA Party now... Smaller, more Constitutional governance. I’d happily hitch my horse to help pull that cart...
No more RINO’s though. The McCain’s, Romney’s, and Christie’s of the GOP need to go dance with the Democrats they are so chummy with.
This “gay marriage” farce certainly has created havoc. I say shame on anyone calling himself a “libertarian” who wanted to force any government into that. That person is simply a sham, a wolf in sheep’s clothing. This is coercion and it’s one of the anathemas of even atheistic/agnostic libertarian theory. Not even “gays” wanted this sort of thing until a very few activists began to use them to exploit a society-busting idea. And few use it now. Canada is case in point. They’ve supported it for 8 years or so and have less than 100 such “couples” to show for it and many will divorce at the drop of a hat anyhow.
The rebuilding job does indeed begin with “morals” but the only hook we have for that now is called the gospel. Without gospel, you’re casting around vainly in thin air for your “morals.”
Why do you make up lies and evade posts?
I keep asking you to clarify your childish fantasy of making marriage and divorce in America, purely religious, something that has never existed in our nation, nor could come to pass, yet which you always bring up as some bizarre libertarian fantasy of marriage only for church goers, which seems truly bizarre as a libertarian position.
I ask you things like I did in that post that you just pretended to misunderstand.
To: Dead Corpse
If you would stop always avoiding others posts, you might open your eyes.
Which church do you want to decide marriage for America? Which religion?
Any and all churches? Any and all religions?

I take it now, that you do mean any and all religions and any and all churches, is that correct?
OK, so your libertarian war against America and conservatism is to impose a Catholic theocracy over the United States.
