really Jim...really that is what you took from my comment.
Those that look for the federal government to solve issues are no different than those that begged for that in the 1930’s and what happened...
The Nazi’s rose to power...
WTH do you think is happening here? Everyone begging for the federal government to pass a law to enforce their will.
Do you actually think we stand a chance in hell on getting ANY conservative agenda item on the table at a national level at this point?
Until we remove abortion, gay rights, etc off the table at a national level we will NEVER win another national election.
The best way to remove these issues is to drive them down to the state level. The democratic victim machines collapses.
Defense of marriage is nazism?
Defense of LIFE is nazism? I guess defending against gun control would be nazism too, then, eh?
Romney lost the election for the same reason Dole and McCain lost. They were not conservatives and conservatives stayed home in droves. If you want to win elections, run CONSERVATIVES!! Screw that RINO crap!!
The only way to get a conservative elected to the national level is run one.
This is EXACTLY what the Whigs were saying about slavery in the 1840s and 1850s. Lincoln and a few others embraced CONSERVATIVE principles of personhood and the sanctity of marriage and the GOP flourished.
People like you would love for conservatism to collapse and be replaced by libertarian anarchy.
Here is what happens with your proposal:
1. A baby gets to live in Alabama, but dies in New York. Do you think THIS is constitutional (keep in mind that the 14th Amendment is part of the Constitution no matter how much libertarians detest it).
2. Two sodomites are allowed to "marry" each other in California, what happens when they decide to move to Oklahoma?
Libertarians want to give the individual states nearly unlimited power to destroy our society, all while denying the federal government's constitutional mandate to protect our Republic.
Perhaps you should read your comment:

"You would have flourished in the 1930’s' in Germany.
You just don’t understand the implication of what you are asking for. IT WILL BE TURNED AGAINST YOU.
It’s coming and people like you will absolutely deserve the immense suffering you will receive from the very same people you are empowering and you will have NO place to go.
You are a short-sighted fool who completely ignores historical fact and exactly what is going on in this country. You have been played and you continue to be played.
You probably think the Patriot Act is a great thing, that George W was a great president.
When this kind of garbage is posted, anything following the comments is meaningless. "Godwin has argued that overuse of Nazi and Hitler comparisons should be avoided, because it robs the valid comparisons of their impact.
The only reason abortion, gay rights, etc., are even ON the national level is because of decisions made AT THE NATIONAL LEVEL by unelected, unaccountable Federal Judges.
We cannot solve a problem created by the unconstitutional imposition of the Federal Government into the inalienable rights of human beings (i.e, abortion) by attempting to do it at the State Level. We first have to attack the problem at the source, and in this case, the source is the Federal Government.
If we remove the planks against abortion and the sanctity of marriage and the traditions that have held this country together for the last 2 centuries, then we might as well surrender all of our rights and liberties, because Godless (meaning the Judeo/Christian God) government of any stripe always leads to tyranny.
By using a Nazi Analogy to try to put down those of us who are fighting at all levels to preserve not only our constitution, but the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity you are not only showing your ingnorance of the history of this country, but you are showing a contempt for the purpose for which this website was created.
I think you owe everyone on this thread a deep felt apology. I think you need to reconsider your godless libertarian philosophy and consider that godless libertarianism leads to rampant un-checked civil hedonism, which eventually destroys all civilizations.
You seem to forget that there weren't enough liberals to create a new "Democratic lite" RINO party for 2012.
'Twasn't the conservatives who lost the POTUS race (the conservatives running for the House WON).
'Twas the RINOs who lost.
Now...you want to start a new Democratic Lite party @ social issues level.
What are you...some RINO troll?
This is exactly what the GOP wants to eventually force through----total removal of social issues from the platform.
When it happens, they can damned well win elections without my help.
Take note that the left EMPHASIZES their perverted social issues in every election, and yet we are expected to keep our mouths shut about infant murder and sodomites running wild.
It's not happening...at least not in my neck of the woods.
