Please reblog this. Anyone in the Southern New Hampshire area, please keep a look out. Description is in the article. I don’t know what else to do. I’ve posted it on Facebook but I don’t have many people on there from the area. I’m honestly at my wit’s end about this. This should never have happened.
He’s using coded language. He’s using to speak to Evangelicals.
When most people think of Evangelicals, they tend to think of middle class white people in Red States, but that’s not always the case. In reality, there is no cohesive brand of Evangelicalism. There are many subgroups of Evangelicals that do not identify with each other.
Despite this, Evangelicals want a theocratic government, but because they are so disparate, they don’t want a top down theocratic government. They want a local, bottom up, theocratic patriarchies.
When Ron Paul says that he will leave abortion up to the States, he is not being pro-choice. It’s certainly not pro-limited government, as its still leaving abortion up to the States. What Ron Paul is saying is don’t worry, you can have your theocracies, you can outlaw abortion, you can turn back gay marriage, you’ll just get to do it on a state and local level where you can all still get along.
In reality, abortion is not a State issue. It is a Federal issue. Why? Because the Supreme Court ruled in Roe v. Wade that abortion was a right protected by the Constitution of the United States. So abortion is not anymore a state’s issue than freedom of speech is, or any other Constitutional right.
So Ron Paul is happy to betray the very right of the Federal government to enforce the rights granted in the Constitution of the United States in favor of radical Christian Evangelicalism.
Follow my new blog if you'd like to keep reading my take on modern politics and world events.
I love this blog and the experience that I've had with it.
But there is way too much baggage here. I need a fresh start. I've made a new political blog called Cancerous Carnist Collectivists that you can follow if you still want to read my take on politics and world events.
You have no idea how much better I feel
knowing that there is at least one person up there saying that we should just end all of our wars around the globe amongst everyone else's warmongering and statism.
Santorum: Our founding documents say that rights came from God, therefore, if you're an atheist you're not American.
Newt Gingritch, from some mythical reality in which Christians are oppressed in the US.
Mitt Romney, explaining why capital punishment is justified in the case of mixed fabrics of working on the Sabbath.
Question by a Palestinian man: How are you going to broker a Palestinian-Israeli peace if you don't admit Palestine exists?
- Romney: I STAND WITH OUR FRIEND ISRAEL.
- Gingrich: Nope. Palestine still doesn’t exist, unless they agree not to exist.
Let's play who's more Zionist with the GOP candidates!
Newt Gingritch is saying that Palestine is a manufactured State.
I guess he's unaware that Palestine dates all the way to the Roman Empire and earlier.
Palestinian-American just told the GOP that he does in fact exist.
Fuck yes.
Romney just started lecturing him about how the conflict is all the hateful Palestinians fault. Israel would be happy with a two state solution if not for the ignorant Palestinians.
Wolf: Mitt Romney, would you say you are more reagan reagan reagan reagan-reagan reagan?
Romney: Free market conservative
Gingritch: Reagan reagan reagan reagan
Santorum: Thanks to my wife's book, many innocent babies have been saved. I hope they're not leaching off of government welfare programs.
Santorum: My wife had a wonderful career that she walked away from to be with a piece of shit like me.
Mitt Romney’s wife will show compassion and sympathy- something Mitt Romney will never do as president
Gingrich: My wife would make the best third lady because -
