    Exactly! Do you see how easy it can be to come to the right side?
    Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.


    I pledge allegiance to the Constitution as written and understood by this nation's founders, and to the Republic it created, an indivisible union of sovereign States, with liberty and justice for all.

    My impression is social conservativism took a back seat to social democracy popularized by Bernie Sanders.

    Social conservatism was about preserving tradition and social institutions against liberal government erosion of those values.
    Tradition is not the worship of ashes, but the preservation of fire. ― Gustav Mahler

Unemployment, food stamp use was the highest ever. They did nothing to try and bring jobs to america. They focused on gays in the military, trannys in womens bathrooms and illegal immigrants.


    There is no way you or anyone else can convince me that the democrat party is nothing but a conglomerate of special interest groups none of which include my family.

    I also clearly stated I chose the lesser of the two evils based on what I believe is best for my Kids and grandkids and greatgrandkids.

    Spunkloaf with all due respect and no personal insult intended in any way. Democrats are always in denial at what the democrat party does and never admit that it does one thing wrong ever or that it ever fails at anything.

    Obama failed america, he did great for a few small special interest groups
    Really? I thought we were doing pretty good for those 8 years. Unemployment dropped. The economy grew. We averted a financial disaster, which was brought on by unfettered financial practices administered by greedy profiteers.

    I also think it's sad that you don't see the benefit to the whole that LGBT rights brings. It was a statement that every citizen has a right to participate in the military and get married, given they can demonstrate the competency to do so, without being subject to the court of public opinion about their lifestyle. You may not see how that benefits you, but it does. Just because it doesn't put millions of dollars in your pockets doesn't mean you are not a beneficiary of it.

    How many people in your family are gay?

    You've had the right to stick whatever you want into whomever's hole for millennia. It's only recently that legislation has called it something it is not (marriage). That change is what social conservatives are against... even gay social conservatives.

    Thanks to liberals, nobody can dictate to you what your definition of a marriage, or anything else for that matter, is. You get to do your thing, no matter how many people hate you for it. You're welcome.
