For decades we've been hearing, "Don't mention abortion" or "We promise to deal with abortion when the time is right."
NO MORE! Social conservatives are not some "special interest group" to be pushed aside after elections. Our beliefs go to the very core of the principles upon which our Republic was founded.
And as for the "let us take care of Obamacare and close the borders" crowd, what makes you think the GOP is going to help you this time around? The GOP held both Houses of Congress for a decade and much of that time they had a GOP president, they didn't close the borders then, they didn't do anything about the disastrous healthcare system (keep in mind, the only reason Hillarycare or Obamacare ever even came up was because the healthcare system had been crippled by ridiculous government bureaucracy and the added expenses from it) then.
Mark my words, the GOP has exactly two years to take care of ALL the things they were elected to do. If they do as they've done in the past, they will have brought about their own destruction.
THE LAW MUST BE OVERTURNED.....I can not think of one R that has run/elected that was pro life that changed their mind when in office...
Way to many on the pro life side cannot take yes for an answer. Sometimes I wonder if there isnt too much catering to the pro life industry over real pro life issues.
“Once again the GOP will ignore social conservatives and cut deals to protect the GOPe.”
Yep, along with the Tea Party who thinks social issues are independent of economic issues. Three words: doomed to fail
If a government is not willing to uphold a fundamental right or life, nothing else, and I mean NOTHING ELSE, matters. Wake up, people.
We need to hold their feet to the fire, and not allow them to ignore these issues.
Actually there is nothing they can do on marriage. The courts are running that show. If the courts say that polygamy is Constitutional, Congress is pretty stuck.
I voted for Republican candidates,although I reject both party labels. I have learned long ago to have, with rare exceptions, no expectations of any significant desirable results from any candidate,even if its my choice who wins. I vote because its my duty and because no one will listen to someone’s political views if they know you don’t vote. Call it a cynical approach to politics if you like. I prefer to call it a realistic one.
