No, I didn't think so. Just look at the current crop of Republican candidates. Yeah, they want smaller government. Except for those parts that will force others to do as they say, believe as they say, think as they say.


But who made up these laws? The conservative Congress, unless I miss my guess.


My sentiments exactly. (See my comment above.) Until big business gets to the point where they can legislate what and where we purchase items, we can control them with our wallets. But if the pro-big business Congress has their way, that time may not be so far off.
I know it was Obama's camp that set the fire for the ripping away of our rights with the new detention laws.

And yes, I said porn, but I meant that as written/spoken, as well as any other form of expression...

And the conservatives with their school policies...well, it's no different than liberals who made laws all over the US that I can't discipline my children as I choose! Yet,we can kill babies all day long, and I have to pay for another woman's choice to do so with my tax dollars! I have no problem with her making that choice, but I shouldn't have to pay...but I do. Neither side is better than the other, and the evils are greater as the game contiues.

The point is that our rights are only rights in the bill. When dealing with private enterprise, we don't have rights. We have a choice.
