If Rand Paul and Scott Walker want abortion and the other social issues be decided at the states' level, that's a good thing.

So, you believe that it is constitutional for individual states to have the authority to declare who is and who isn't a person?

Are you familiar with what happened the last time this was done?

It's federal judges that are destroying the nation culturally and morally.

Federal judges are among the most inherently impotent of all government officials. They have ZERO power to enforce their dictates. The destruction of America is brought about by the spineless politicians who choose to ignore the Constitution in order to prostrate before their black-robed masters.

We disagree. The closer power and economic decisions are to people, the more control we have. I’d much rather that DC would stick to the small number of responsibilities given to it in the Constitution, and that’s it. Anything that can be local initiative should be. We’ve lost control, because power and wealth have gravitated upward, away from ordinary US citizens.
