I respect my ancestors and those that established this nation of states...

Except that those men respected the Ten Commandments first and foremost. However they also realized the dangers of establishing a national religion or national moral statutes as had been done in Great Britain. If you're going to make all the decisions in Washington what's the use of the state legislatures? To handle the droppings that are left over?

Look, I realize you statists want every decision to be made by those 537 hacks in Washington DC. However, some idiot from Alaska knows nothing more about the morals, views, and general outlook on life of a North Carolina citizen than someone from Eastern Prussia. Why should he have a say in my life any more than the European?

National moral statutes? Like free speech?

So you are not really a Christian after all and have been lying all along. You serve the wisdom of men, and your own arrogant, unlearned pride has usurped the words of the Bible and the basis of the Declaration of Independence (The Declaration of Independence: “We hold these Truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, …”).

From where are the rights in the U.S. Constitution derived?

Answer: Mosaic Law.

Don't underestimate our idiots here in Alaska!The State Supremes recently ruled that homosexual couples are entitled to State benefits just like married spouses. BTW I agree with you. Not quite ready to jump ship to Libertarian party but totally fed up with the repubs. Kind of come to realize repubs like socialism on slow track as opposed to the fast track demos.
