BLAME THE GOP FOR PRO-SODOMY COURT DECISION

BLAME THE GOP FOR PRO-SODOMY COURT DECISION By: Reed R. Heustis, Jr. June 27, AD 2003

With one stroke of the pen, [homosexuality] has triumphed at the Supreme Court.

And guess what?

Republican-appointed Justices are to blame.

With a convincing 6-3 decision in Lawrence v. Texas, the United States Supreme Court on June 26 overturned a 1986 case, Bowers v. Hardwick, which had upheld the legitimacy of an anti-sodomy law. Sodomites and perverts all across America are hailing the Lawrence decision as the biggest gay rights victory in our nation's history.

Mitchell Katine, the openly gay attorney representing John Lawrence and Tyron Garner, the men whose arrest in 1998 led to the decision, proclaimed, "this is a day of independence."

Whereas homosexual deviancy has long been celebrated in the media and on our university campuses over the last two decades, the Johnny-come-lately Supreme Court now joins the orgy. As dissenting Justice Antonin Scalia correctly stated, "The court has taken sides in the culture war...."

How could this have happened?

Weren't Republicans supposed to be the champions of traditional values?

Weren't Republicans supposed to be the stalwart defenders of our nation's Christian heritage?

Seriously, just think:

Every four years without fail, the Republican Party instructs Christians to elect Republicans to office so that we can thwart the left wing agenda of the Democratic Party.

Every four years without fail, the Republican Establishment warns its rank and file never to vote for a third party candidate, lest we elect a Democrat by default by "giving him the election".

Every four years without fail, Christians are told that third party candidates cannot win, and that a vote for a third party candidate is somehow a vote for the Democrat.

Every four years without fail, Christians are bamboozled into believing that their beloved Republican Party will restore this nation to its Christian heritage.

Every four years without fail, we are told that only a Republican can appoint a conservative Justice to the high bench so that liberalism can be stopped cold.

Without fail.

Christians, wake up!

It is the Republican Party that is responsible for moronic decisions such as Lawrence. Quit blaming the liberals and the Democrats. Blame the GOP!

Out of the six Justices that formed the horrifying 6-3 Lawrence majority, four were appointed by Republicans! Four!

Justice John Paul Stevens was nominated by President Gerald Ford - a Republican.

Justices Sandra Day O'Connor and Anthony Kennedy were nominated by President Ronald Reagan - a Republican.

Justice David Souter was nominated by President George H.W. Bush - a Republican.

Two-thirds of the majority opinion were Republican-appointed!

"I believe this needs to be trumpeted," says Tim Farness, 1st District Representative of the Constitution Party of Wisconsin.

Indeed it does.

A 4-2 majority of the six Justices forming the Lawrence decision was Republican-appointed.

Republican President George W. Bush intends to run for a second term in 2004. Don't be too surprised when we start hearing the same-old song and dance all over again: "Elect Republicans so that we can defeat the Democratic agenda."

Mr. President: the Republican Party is the Democratic agenda.

Great Post. I am going to cut-and-paste it to my homepage and attribute it to "anonymous" until I hopefully find out who wrote it.

Why is was better to have the police power to break into someone's house (on a false police report by a neighbor) than to let people be?

The circumstances were wrong, but the Court's decision has led to a renewal of cases fighting for normalization of Gay agendas. Surely you can see the difference?

Christians are losing a lot of ground in the U.S., and it's mainly because we don't unite and fight this crap.

That and the fact that we let our politicians fail us continuously without holding them accountable just because they're Republican. Enough is enough.

When will the rebellion begin..when it's too late?

I'm not that great with computer skills and I copied'n'pasted, then later wanted to find the poster and couldn't. He wrote another one too, really clear thinking. How can libertarians defeat it? They can't. They just rant and say the same slogans over and over.

The majority of people in this country do not wish to live under a theocracy

THat is ridiculous, Drew. We didn't live under a theocracy in the beginning yet managed to uphold moral, ethical standards of behavior for the most part. Contrast that to today when perversion is rampant and deviancy applauded, and our children are just falling to the bottom of the pit.

Not interested in philosophical statements which say that freedom leads to tyranny and bad is good etc. This is the United States, we can't force our religious beliefs on the minority. I have said what I have to say tonight and I do not wish to be flagged with this other person who can do noting but lie about my position and engage in hypocritical behavior. Then he has the gall to call himself a fellow catholic and challenge my personal religious beliefs. I've had enough of him for now. Perhaps you and I can get more specific on a future post which seems to come aliong every hour or so.

Sometime you might be able to take the arguments above and disprove them one by one, rather than a blanket disagreement?

They don't bother to refute it. They just ridicule and deny it.

It is the morality of the many that guarantees the libertine few the freedom to be as reckessly decrepit and grossly self-indulgent as they want to be. But they refuse to acknolwdge this truth.

They are world-class freeloaders.

A conservative 3rd party only serves to get the Rats elected,

That's absurd. How else will we EVER get Conservative issues onboard? Republicans today are worse than yesterday's Democrats! THEY need to go. All of them. You're saying we should leave them in office despite the excellerating pace of the Left's agenda, with a Republican in office? What kind of a Conservative are you?

Not interested in philosophical statements . . .

More like: not interested in using your God-given sense of reason--rusty though it may be--to discern the gross evil in the position you are championing.

Your mind is closed down so tight you create your own gravity field with the black hole that hovers between your ears.

There's not much holding social conservatives in the GOP. If they go soft on guns, gays, and abortion, why the hell should I stay?

Because you'll elect a Democrat...sarcasm off. What difference does it make? They seem to have lost the concept of being 'elected' to office to serve the people, not business interests and every minority agenda they can come up with. Why elect someone who is unprincipled? The thing lost on the diehard Republicans is that principle doesn't matter, just that they're boy wins...and in the process we all lose. It's a win-win for the extreme Left no matter which party is in office.

How much more before it's too late?

Its already too late. The American experiment will be ashes only by the time a third party would have been a viable alternative.

This week's decisions give homosexuals a lot less reason to support the Democrats.

Oh great. We give them a Supreme Court decision so they'll give the GOP a few votes? And you see nothing wrong with this thinking?

I agree with you, Bush doesn't care if he wins as a Republican or Democrat, politics is just a tool to push his agenda. Which obviously is globalist, no borders, no constitution, no sovereignty.

Only a blind man could fail to see it.

It is true, to vote for an extremist version of a conservative party will only serve to get Democrats elected.

Vote Republican and keep moving the politics right.

If you can't get your issues addressed in the Republican party and go for this other party BS, you are personally getting liberals elected.

Don't get liberals elected because you may want your 2% popular views passed.

This is the folly of libertarianism.

The folly of libertarianism is its atheistic denial of Original Sin and the effects on society of that aspect of man's nature, and the collective effect of sin on culture.

I just got Ann Coulter's Treason and at the end, the Conclusion, Why They Hate Us, she says:

"The fundamental difference between liberals and conservatives is: Conservatives believe man was created in God's image; liberals believe they are God."
