Now, on other points..
Quote:
You often say you are a fiscal conservative, but a social liberal.
You appear to be bright, but your position here is utterly and hopelessly impossible.
To be a social liberal you require a big government with high taxes which makes it impossible to be a fiscal conservative.
If you don't agree with me please explain how your mixed position is mathematically feasible.

For examples that BK didn't bring up specifically...
Gay marriage - Having gays in my family has undoubtedly influenced my opinion on this. Having a serial, heterosexual uncle who married 6 times (4 women) and may have been a pedophile along with an incest perpetrator may also influence me. Argument on "the sanctity of marriage" immediately (IN MY OPINION) disqualify someone from the debate. People like my late uncle are ok? Like Brittany Spears weekend not-a-marriage? THOSE are ok (no Constitutional Ammendment being proposed against THEM) but my aunt who lived for 17 years with the same woman, bought a house, raised a kid, paid her taxes and hardly ever got so much as a ticket - SHE's the "bad guy"? Get real.
Doesn't take high taxes for that. By the same token, no church should be FORCED to perform a gay marriage. There are plenty of churches that will (assuming you want to be married in a church). If they won't, I would wonder why you're with that church to begin with.
Any other examples you'd like?
