First, I am not left/right, liberal/conservative. I am a traditional human being. I am old enough and have seen and heard enough to know that things that are changed without good forethought end up causing all manner of havoc. I am a firm believer in the philosophy of Jesus and the lessons in the book you all call the bible. I do not believe in God/s, but I am not stupid. There are basic human "laws" if you will that have lasted over 50,000 years, perhaps millions. They have to do with being homo sapiens on this planet and how we came about. I do not have enough conceit to think any god out there will talk to me, or that I can interpret any god's words or meanings.
This country has devolved to an appeasement mentality towards anything or anyone who screams "I am, therefore, you must conform for me". It started with Brown vs Board of Education; moved towards "equality" and women's rights creating affirmative action, moved us to equal number of all races, creeds, colors, genders regardless of actual equality of intellect, strength or ability; carried us to a multiculturalism mentality where we are now required to speak correctly (not think, yet), behave correctly or go into rehab so all is O.K.; we have raised children who have no compunction to lie, cheat or steal or become sexually promiscuous with any member of the opposite or same sex without thought to aids, STD's; a country where there is a pill for every aliment and you cannot be blamed for anything because your mommy, daddy or Bush made you do it. We hold no one accountable for anything except Republicans, Bush and Cheney. Tinfoil hatted leftist loons can freeze $90k in their freezers, get involved in million dollar land deals, get their spouses sweet billion dollar contracts, get into accidents and almost die, but speed from the hospital when we go home to "recover", or lie right to our faces and no one in the MSM points it out. We hate our military no matter that everyone says "I support our troops" and HATE has become the mantra of the left. Classical liberals are almost extinct and the insane have taken over the asylum.
The point is that San Francisco's mayor did not obey the law, but broke it! Instead of the Supreme Court, he should have been prosecuted and gone to jail as should anyone that breaks a law. Then, when you're in jail, you go to the SCOTUS and maybe get a decision that is reasonable and not made out of a nonexistent cloth!! Check out Paris Hilton, she's trying everything not to go to jail for 45 lousy days, when she should have thought about the consequence of her actions.
Well, I could go on and on but let me close this with these sayings:
(1) The road to hell is not paved with Gold folks, it is paved with the intentions of those out for money/power and prestige. (2) Ask not for whom the bell tolls, it tolls for thee. (3) When I used my mind, I was a liberal; when I got older, I got a heart and became a conservative. (4) Nothing straightens you out quicker than owning your own business in order to make a living!!!
