But, to spell it out clearly to you... We CAN tell that not all conservatives think alike. Fancy that!

But let's put our cards on the table. Some people here are simply gunning to bully and be nasty and mean. They came in with the attitude of "beat up the conservative." I can tell because the arguments aren't about the issue, they're about making sure that conservatives know that they're hated.

Ah well. There's always that kind of...discourse, I guess.

The biggest religious rights groups met today and decided to endorse none other than Santorum.  So my guess is most of the religious right will be thinking the same way and stumbling over themselves to find excuses for Santorum.

Status: offline 		I am thinking maybe we should devolve back into state's control. With the exception of a few current established amendments restricting that freedom of control...let's take a look shall we ?

Banking, why not back to the states and eliminate the fed. Treasury determines currency needs. Eliminate all federal banking laws and the FDIC. The fact is of course that the fed. has not...repeat NOT been printing up new currency and...states could not either. What would be the real practical difference ?

FCC, communications back to the states and who then could break up the little cable fiefdoms. Different statutes on all communication media....including all things digital.

Agriculture, let the states subsidize their own farmers. Let the states decide if they want to drill oil...for examples.

DEA, let the states have their own drug laws. They are beginning to address that as we type.

I am thinking the right and the capitalist would be screaming to hell. You see, it's much more cost-effective to purchase one plutocracy then to buy 50 different plutocracies. Then it could get ugly...I mean states would be reduced to competing for lobbyist jobs, income and of course...influence...the green kind.

No, way too much of a shift in profit centers, or let's say, political investment portfolios. It would vacate K St....can't have that. Where would I go after I 'retire' from congress ?

Though we all recognize that the federal government has a role to play, I think we can agree as well that for many things, the citizens of the state know what is best for themselves.

Would the states guarantee the accounts?

And what happens to the monies paid in with taxes?

So you admit you do not know people, yet within a few posts you condemn everyone who isnt conservative because you do not like what is being said.

I can only suggest that you and I interact as little as possible. Otherwise, your feelings will stay perpetually hurt.

Griswold did not expand federal powers over the state, what it did was expand PERSONAL powers over the intrusion of the state.


Griswold first created the "right to privacy" and then used the power of the federal gummint to force the states to respect it.
Yeah, that's not an expansion of federal powers.
If they created the requirement to go about in public armed with a firearm, that would be an expansion of personal power.

So in your opinion requiring a state to respect the rights granted by the US Constitution is an expansion of federal power? So you'd be fine if your state made Shi'a Islam the official required religion and forced you to go to the mosque every Friday?

Why? Is it relevant to the topic of the thread or is just another way for you to take a jab at someone who disagrees with you.

Status: offline 		IMO, the disconnect or paradox highlights the difference between words of the social conservatives and the desires of the social conservatives. Social conservatives like Santorum talk "small government" and "limited government intrusion" but actually favor big government and government intrusion into people's private lives in order to enforce "morality".

But the libertarian conservatives and the fiscal conservatives are happy to ally themselves with the social conservatives if it wins them elections, deluding themselves into thinking that they can "handle" the social conservatives and prevent them from actually putting their "morality" laws into practice.

Not all conservatives hold all the same beliefs - but they all seem to believe that their brand of conservatives can control the other versions of conservatives and come out on top.
