I've seen Jim Robinson support the legalization of drugs. He has no problem with someone opposing the excesses of the WOD and neither do I.

Why don't you remove yourself so conservatives like Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity don't have to waste valuable air time trying to cleanse the conservative movement of those supporting drug legalization? Or remove yourself so the memory of Ronald Reagan isn't tarnished by losers supporting drug legalization?

In one of Reagans' books he says what people do in their own home is none of the governments business.In many instances Reagan was more of a small l libertarian than republican.

Sparky, you're hurting my feelings. My church tells me that the belief in God and evolution is compatible. I am a sinner and a poor member of standing in my church, but my belief in God is very strong.

So, please stop avoiding the question unless your beliefs are not real. What church is it that has the ultimate truth in relation to God and evolution?

Who gets to define the "conservative movement"? Isn't it simply a mass of people who support the same views in a general sense, while vehemently disagreeing on certain issues? If a libertarian condemns the WOD on the basis that the fedgov has no place conducting it, isn't that person arguing on the same side as a person who opposes wealth redistribution?

Do you think the liberals all march in lockstep? Every group consists of subsets of groups whose beliefs are varied, but mostly similar. You would do better to cooperate on those issues where you agree (gun control, income tax, etc) than to try and evict these potential allies from "your" movement.

Are you high? I’ve never called Rush or Sean Hannity.

So you’re against the War on Drugs but you’re also against legalization. You’re definitely high.

Here’s my solution. Restore the federal government to it’s constitutionally mandated limits. This would negate all federal laws on drugs.

Then if you want to outlaw drugs in your community, and you convince a majority to agree with you, go right ahead.

It’s not the province of the federal government. Read the 10th amendment to the Constitution sometime.

If you come to understand it, you might be able to call yourself a "conservative" while still appearing to grasp the English language.
