..... that I just wanted to post that link.

Regarding your last question - reverence with our founders?

I'll answer your question (again), but why is it I have to answer the same kinds of questions over and over again. You guys don't seem to get a grasp of it.

It's not the people (founders); it's not the paper (constitution); it's the underlying principle - which means it's not really any given issue either, but rather the underlying principle which should act as a compass when considering issues.

Look at how dishonest ANSU is being up above about the definition of the word conservative - like I don't know the meaning of the word and its different variants and applications. He's hiding behind a word in an attempt to conceal his underlying principle. Likewise, people criticize "the founders" and the "constitution" as old white men and an out-dated piece of paper, all the while refusing to address the underlying principle, which is not outdated, and is inclusive to all men (gender neutral).

By the way, you knew that. So why did you have to ask?

On your pet peeve issue right now? And how I would reconcile our different outlooks and approaches?

Our federal government simply does not have the power to implement sweeping gun control laws. I would go on to explain myself, but I think I'll see what kind of criticism ..... I mean reply ..... that comment might generate.
