Then you would explain to your daughter that just because something is legal doesn’t make it right. For instance, alcohol is legal. Surely you’re not saying that this keeps you from making a moral argument against its use or abuse.

Do you have children? They are impacted by what is approved and legal as they search out their meaning in life. We hope they adopt our principles, but they are their own entities when they reach 18 (mine are 18 and 19). When there is nothing Taboo about behavior because the leaders do not suggest it is, then an argument ensues that doesn't need to happen.

How can I support amoral or waffling positions from leaders I vote for without weakening the principles I stand for. No Drugs or Baby killing, period! You need to be a productive responsible contributor to our nation.

Fortunately they see Obama for who he is. Admitting I voted for someone who is willing to leave openings for bad behavior is unacceptable. That is why I didn't vote for Romney.

So you favor making everything that you consider morally wrong illegal then, I guess. Because I don’t see any limiting principle in what you’re arguing.

I’m not a Rand Paul supporter but in think your arguments against him are pretty weak.
