"The moment Big Government can do something for them, like step in and regulate the sex life of strangers, they implode to expose their true (liberal) nature."

Did you READ the article? This law has been in effect since the early 1800's. There are NO conservatives crying for NEW legislation, or the enforcement of this old legislation as your post suggests.

As a symbol of the morality this nation has strived to achieve throughout most of it's history, I am sorry it was struck down.

Now don't dare try to make the LIBERAL argument I am interested in PEEPING in people's bedrooms, I'm not. I am sick of our tax dollars paying for children out of wedlock, abortion, birthcontorl and the like.

"There are NO conservatives crying for NEW legislation, or the enforcement of this old legislation as your post suggests."

I was speaking in general, and was speaking to the drive to preserve laws that seek to allow government to regulate what happens in the bedrooms of American citizens.

"As a symbol of the morality this nation has strived to achieve"

Government laws do not achieve morality; individuals, families, and communities do. It is not the striking down of laws like this that bring about our present-day immorality; but rather, it's the collapse of families and communities under the strain of modern society. Without strong moral backing, the youth of today falls prey to the culture of excess and irresponsibility. Judges and Congressmen can't prevent parents from instilling good moral values in their children; only parents can do that. Unfortunately for all of us, far too many parents these days are choosing that path. We're all paying the price for it.

"I am sick of our tax dollars paying for children out of wedlock, abortion, birthcontorl and the like."

Then your problem is not with what this law was against, but rather with government overtaxation and wrongful subsidization. I agree entirely with you, and would gladly bring back Jefferson for a couple weeks so he can go through our modern government with a fine-tooth comb to rid us of all the garbage that's been packed into it over the centuries. Starve the government of its monetary intake and we'll see the problems we all have with government subsidies and welfare disolve in no time. Let's start by eliminating the income tax (with no replacement) and go on from there.

You say you don't want it enforced, but do you really think its being there as a symbol only has made you have to pay any less in taxes for "children out of wedlock, abortion, birthcontorl and the like." ?

Please don't call me a slob too, I'm just asking. lol
