@Mark_McEathron There you go again with that Burkean conservatism that's based on custom and traditions, as is the English common law and Catholicism. Where as American conservatism returns to the source (constitutional and natural law) to correct errors from bad precedents.

@RonDeSantis Why don't you tell us how the delegates to the Constitutional Convention you're advocating for will be chosen? Will it be by the corrupt Congress, the corrupt State Legislatures, or 'We the People' who continually elect the corrupt Congress and State Legislatures?

@BillArnoldTeach Catholicism is like McDonalds, while their basic formula is still used, it adapts to each country it operates in. AKA Syncretism.

President Trump chose to read 2 Chronicles 7:11–22 during “America Reads the Bible,” a passage that calls for prayer and a return to God. beliefnet.com/columnists/new…

@TomWillisWV Just never mind how the corrupt Republican Party has been campaigning to repeal Obamacare only to replace it with another unconstitutional act (a political bait and switch). And not one peep out of Rush the Godfather of Con Inc or any of the other "conservative" grifters.

Rush Limbaugh said Sen. Shelley Moore Capito committed the political betrayal of the century. During the height of the Tea Party movement, Capito ran on repealing Obamacare, won the West Virginia Republican Primary, and went on to win the general election. Once she was elected, she did the EXACT OPPOSITE, voting with Democrats to keep Obamacare in place. That decision has resulted in rising healthcare costs and has left many West Virginians struggling to afford coverage. Rush Limbaugh pointed to that moment in 2017 as a breaking point for many conservative voters. After years of campaigning on repeal, and after voters delivered Republicans control of the House, Senate, and White House, he argued there were no more excuses. When the vote finally came, Rush explained that only a handful of Republican senators... including Capito.... joined Democrats, blocking repeal and went against the very promises that got them elected. This upcoming Republican primary, we have an opportunity to hold her accountable. It’s time for a change, and for leadership that delivers on conservative promises. On May 12, vote Tom Willis for U.S. Senate in the upcoming Republican Primary. rushlimbaugh.com/daily/2017/07/…

@JayCollinsFL What the heck is Jay trying to say, that he's going to physically fight his political opponents rather than argue/debate like some politicians?

Some politicians argue, but warriors expect to win. I want our children to have more opportunity, more freedom, and more success than ever before. That starts with the decisions we make right now. Excellence is a choice. A habit. A gold standard. We need to step up and do the next hard right.

@RonDeSantis Coolidge: believed in the US Constitution. DeSantis: believes America's last hope is in fundanentally altering the Constitution, and quite possibly abolishing and replacing it, at a Constitutional Convention.

@podiatristdon I'm still bewildered how those calling themselves Republicans, let alone conservatives, could self-delude themselves into believing Trump was suddenly no longer an amoral big government progressive Democrat.

Florida families deserve to feel safe in their own communities. That means backing the men and women in uniform, giving law enforcement the resources they need, and taking a hard line against crime and fentanyl flowing into our state. Public safety isn’t optional; it’s the foundation of everything else!

@ajrichar @LondonRiverSFW DeSantis also believes the US Constitution is wrong and that our only hope is in fundementally altering it via a dangerous Constitutional Convention where it can also be legally abolished and replaced.

@LondonRiverSFW DeSantis has always believed that Florida's constitution is wrong. You can go back to his campaign book for his thinking on that.

Partisan gerrymandering is a direct violation of Florida’s State Constitution, but please tell me again how DeSantis is a “constitutional conservative.” 🙄

@LondonRiverSFW Here's my essay on how DeSantis is a "constitutional conservative". Ron DeSantis is a constitutional conservative because the corrupt Republican Party and their respective media outlets (aka Con Inc) say so. The end.

Marriage should be abolished as an institution recognized by the state. There’s no reason for the government to be involved in it. Relationships should be between people and—if the choose—their religious institutions.

The Libertarian Membership Pledge is a mandatory certification required for individuals to become voting members of the Libertarian Party. It serves as a foundational statement of the party's ideology, specifically the Non-Aggression Principle. The standard text of the pledge requires members to certify that they "do not believe in or advocate the initiation of force as a means of achieving political or social goals."

@LondonRiverSFW @NathanMadden98 Actually it isn't, its just a bunch of sophistry masquerading as such. Digging deeper beyond the surface level quickly reveals contradictions and other nonsense. Of course it's always helpful to be familiar with the sources. Ad fontem Something to consider...

@CommonplaceThe @NathanMadden98 Non aggression principle is consistent with the teachings of Christ. Non aggression principle is consistent with the US Constitution. It is a foundational principle of western civilization since enlightenment.

@IzzyBee0509 That makes no sense because DeSantis didn't deport any illegals. He just used Florida's money to transport them from another State to another part of America for theatrics. Donate all your money to DeDantis if you like, but he still missused public funds for political gain.

@OocTobeyM Don't forget the deleted scene from the deleted scene where Rocket says, "We're all kneeling now. Bunch of jackasses, kneeling in a circle."
