That's fine... And about where I am.
I guess the way to explain it is this. I want our fellow purt'near and hyphenated conservative folks to see the true depth of that stance and how it relates to us, the American People. If we just follow that every citizen has those unalienable Rights, from the BOR and beyond (including, by mention, those not mentioned), and the limits on the FEDGOV placed there to stop the sort of consolidation of power that can sell us all down the river with the votes of 269 people and a signature or the rulings of 5 (lately).
No way in Hell the Founders would have wanted that much power consolidated in any one place.
Nor, for that matter, do I.
Consider the Dems march in lockstep behind the totalitarian Communist model, and a pile of 'pubbies are for consolidating power because they see that as the ticket to personal relevance and riches, (Actually the same reason those Dems do), we're sorely lacking in representation in DC. Most of the states here that have their stuff together have only one vote in the House, and often that is selected by one or two largest towns representing a tiny fraction of the actual land area.
I haven't lost sight of the goal, nor my principles, but I'm afraid if we wait until we have a government composed of folks pure in ideals and behaviour enough to carry the torch, we're going to miss the Last Trumpet.
Unfortunately, and considering we're sinners, all, that means some of the people we are going to have to work with are just going to have to keep their nose clean for the duration of their service.
Right now, in DC, I am convinced that so many people have career/marriage/fortune/(all three) ending DIRT on each other, that is the reason that none step forth to take the mess down. Some of that may be decades old, some may be fresh and ongoing, but it is the little corroborative witnesses who end up victims of botched robberies, car accidents, suicide, die in mysterious fires, or are found, eventually, in obscure places in obscure parks with new orifices, or too decayed/damaged to assess. And it's on both sides of the aisle, rampant throughout every agency at every level, on videotape, set up and ready to be 'disclosed' as soon as the blanks are filled in on the accounts, etc.
...and it is going global.
We have to find a way to shut that down. For that, we're gonna need a bigger army.
As an aside the only reason aside from a denser population of folks inclined toward such unnatural acts I can see that those unnatural behaviours keep getting 'mainstreamed' is that those holding that dirt will lose some of the tonnage they have on others because it won't be a big deal any more in the eyes of the lemmings. I try to pick up on the trends by seeing what is the latest on the shows I won't watch, and kiddie rapers seem to be picking up steam, along with the now usual perversions. Commercials advertising HIV drugs have more faggotry in a 30 second spot than I'd ordinarily watch in a month, and that by accident, and the only reason to spam the viewing public with all that is desensitization. I am sure the folks who acquire HIV have their own network to distribute that information, if not a few of them keeping track of the latest treatments, so what's the market on prime time?
What they are marketing isn't the drug it's the behaviour.
So, like with Billy Clinton getting a 'little strange' from an intern, if the moral expectations of the people are low enough, much of the dirt is DC blends right in with the rug. And even then the press lied about it being "just about sex" while winking, when the issue was Obstruction of Justice and Perjury (the same charges they went after Nixon over. Drugs are presented as just fine, or downright legalized, and the whole show is swirling around the big pipe.
Oh, well, compared to what comes after, this'll only hurt for a little while, but for now, it is frustrating.
