Flyboy,
[Tell me again how you reconcile either candidate's position with the Constitution. Neither one of them gets it; I've heard both of them speak about the rights the government gives, or the Constitution gives. They're both statists!]
The Constitution gives the Congress the authority to tax and spend, and the president the authority to submit his requirements and to execute budgets and his programs. If they are against the Constitution, they why does someone not bring lawsuits that will go to the US SC? It is because the suit would be thrown out.
The actions of President Bush and the Congress have been well within the boundaries of the Constitution whether you think so or not.
[Again, with the accusatory tone. But, again, I'm sure it was a slip of the tongue (er, fingers). What, exactly, are the "moral issues" of which you speak? As near as I can tell, the biggest moral issue is the morality of government trying to interfere with the rights endowed me by my Creator (among which are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness). Which one of the candidates was working to reduce government intervention in my life; which one was trying to reduce the government's immoral and unconscionable interference with my inalienable rights?]
You show little understanding of moral absolutes. They are contained in the Bible. You have life, but there is not right to do as you please to pursue your idea of happiness. Libertarians seem unable to grasp that fact.
To be specific regarding the moral issues that I am primarily speaking of, they are homosexuality, which is an abominable sin, and abortion, which is the murder of the unborn.
Those moral issues, and there are others that the LP holds as rights, are symptoms of a nation that has departed from the moral laws of God, who created us. Once a nation departs from them it becomes a nation that in time loses its liberties, and finally collapses.
The lack of respect for life is manifested in the murders of all ages and by parents, their children, schoolmates or anyone who gets in the way of what they desire.
In this race it is clear that the Dems have reached a point of moral bankruptcy. Those who vote for them or those who do not oppose them are about the same. If the differences in the moral values of the two candidates is not clear to you, then you do not have the proper moral values that are needed to reverse the direction of this nation.
Not necessarily being accusatory, but if the shoe fits wear it.
