Whoa, whoa, whoa there.
Funniest post of the day. :lamo:2razz::mrgreen::lamo

That can work both ways. What happens when the Dems win both of these battles? That will be two less reasons to vote for them. Something similar happened to Republicans when the Cold War ended.gay rights and marijuana legalization
Interesting video.
Since you are conservative, here's some Viereck for you
That's real conservatism, and is why I said, conservatism as an ideology, I don't have a problem with. It's how the modern Republican party practices it's so called conservatism that bothers me. I gave three ways that I thought it could be corrected.
Nobody claimed that the GPO had a monopoly on stupidity.This is why the GOP faces issues.

How do win over people that vote for that?
I do not follow you. So people want to be with other people.... at least many do. People have done that all throughout history all over the world regardless of any right they may have held or not held. What does that have to do with the idea of natural rights?
It is in the nature of man to procreate too. Does that mean that there is a natural right to impregnate any female a male can manage to?because it is in the nature of man to form associations.

so you are totally ok with same sex marriage? It's natural for people to associate - sometimes those people are same sex - and therefore they have a natural right to marry, correct?
I had the impression you weren't for it... I could be wrong.
It is a natural thing for a human or animal to do. It's not a right
People, coming together in an organized way, can then say if the girl kills the man, she had the right to do that out of self-defense; but nature doesn't grant rights. There is no "natural" right. They could just as easily put a law in that you can't kill someone even in self-defense.
Yes, they come out of thin air when wished.
Because unsecured rights are meaningless or put another way they do not exist.

Unless you are a woman, black, a child or poor. I also have some ocean view land for sale in Arkansas.
The default position among conservatives seems to be that the GOP takes the policy positions it does because values, America, and common sense, and the Democratic Party takes its positions simply to pander to the shiftless poors.
because it is in the nature of man to form associations.
i have the ability to form an association, however human nature makes us form associations.
What does that have to do with the theory of natural rights?
as a libertarian, no i have no problem with people being together..marriage.
the problem i have is when people try to use the power of government to force their existence of their association on other people.
rights have no power of force behind them to make other people do anything, you don't have a right food, housing, shelter, ...because they must be created, therefore no one can assert a right to take from someone who has created those things.
seriously, dude, you're making no sense. If self-defense (in YOUR opinion) is a "natural right" how can food and shelter not be a "natural right"?
Why am I bothering?
Ok, stopping now. Again.
Given that the Democrat Party is the one responsible for most of the discrimination and disenfranchisement in the past, they should be responsible for the solutions to correct them.:mrgreen:

No, liberals don't actually support liberty. I have never seen a liberal support any sort of hint at liberty without government involvement.
Yes, one Democrat who sucks at math is somehow indicative of ... Something. I dunno.
I've never seen a bigger gaggle of partisans cherry-pick so much in am attempt to demonize an entire electorate.
Don't have a clue what 'liberal' means, huh?
Given that many conservatives are classical liberals, and didn't stink up the name like progressives have he probably knows better than you.
Given that I actually know how a dictionary works for those rare occasions when I come across an unfamiliar word, I doubt that he does.
And that 'classical liberal' crap is just that- crap. Conservatives are as fearfully obedient, boringly uniform and woefully clueless as they've always been.
