I certainly wish liberals had been so generous of President Bush when he won the office......both times.

And yes...........it is immoral to take the hard earned profit from one man and redistribute it to one that does not work. That is the great difference between liberals and conservatives. Conservatives believe in self reliance and the right to keep their property, distributing it in any way they deem proper. Liberals believe in taking private property and distributing it to others.

Now.......conservatives have put up with govt confiscating private property for years and years. And all they've gotten for their generosity is a bad rap.

That is the real moral issue.

It's impossible to avoid the fact that morality has to enter the discussion of issues like criminal justice - should a society demand justice for the victims of crime or coddle those who commit crime? - the latter attitude is endemic to Democrats. That's the primary reason I switched yrs ago from Dem to Repub -- when I became truly disgusted with the way the Left coddles criminals and completely forgets their victims.

Restrictions on abortion is another crucial issue where the morality of civilized human beings cannot condone barbaric late stage or partial birth. "One nation under God" -- "endowed by our Creator with life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness." As Americans do we respect the truth found in the US Constitution or not. "Freedom of religion"...of course does mean freedom FROM religion - as so many Democrats wrongly argue.

Watch the way criminal justice is handled in the ensuing 4 years. Obama has already stated he wants to reduce prison sentences. By the time his term has expired Americans will be outraged at the resurgence of crime and failure to keep violent actors behind bars. It's happened during every Democrat administration. Would be most happy to be proven wrong on that one...won't hold my breath.
