I think it’s a good idea not to mention abortion or the farce of gay “marriage”. Congress can do nothing decisive without the Supreme Court, and symbolic actions do not save the lives of unborn children. Similarly, gay “marriage” is being imposed by the courts, and Congress cannot stop that. The social issues require that the Court be staffed with decent people who see their job as interpreting the Constitution as written, not as rewriting that document. We need the White House to deal with those issues, so it’s not happening until January 20, 2017.
I am thoroughly disgusted with murdering babies for profit and with pretending that marriage means whatever Newspeak says it means. I just don’t see an opportunity for Congress to make things significantly better (particularly with a certain veto from the corrupt thug occupying our White House).
I wasn't aware of an oath of office to obey lawless judges.
Last time I checked, the constitutional oath to support the Constitution.
Which absolutely requires equal protection for the life of every innocent person, in every jurisdiction.
The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the Members of the several State Legislatures, and all executive and judicial Officers, both of the United States and of the several States, shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution...”
— Article VI, the United States Constitution
“No person shall be deprived of life without due process of law.”
— The Fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution
“No State shall deprive any person of life without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.”
— The Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution
For decades we've been hearing, "Don't mention abortion" or "We promise to deal with abortion when the time is right."
NO MORE! Social conservatives are not some "special interest group" to be pushed aside after elections. Our beliefs go to the very core of the principles upon which our Republic was founded.
And as for the "let us take care of Obamacare and close the borders" crowd, what makes you think the GOP is going to help you this time around? The GOP held both Houses of Congress for a decade and much of that time they had a GOP president, they didn't close the borders then, they didn't do anything about the disastrous healthcare system (keep in mind, the only reason Hillarycare or Obamacare ever even came up was because the healthcare system had been crippled by ridiculous government bureaucracy and the added expenses from it) then.
Mark my words, the GOP has exactly two years to take care of ALL the things they were elected to do. If they do as they've done in the past, they will have brought about their own destruction.
