the problem with that line of thinking is simply you dismiss that people change. while I fully understand what you are attempting to imply, it is not fair game what it really is simply, poor taste on your part stooping to a level that you feel the need to participate calling people names who you do not know based merely on political choices.
If the purchasing of wine before noon on Sunday is that much of an issue for you, address those concerns to your lawmakers and attempt to have them changed, keeping in mind however..majority rules(maybe the majority in your community supports that law)
Yes perhaps people do change. Does that apply to Mr Ayres as well? Just curious. The point I am trying to make is that if the right continues to try and pretend that they are in some manner morally superior to us lefty heathens, then they can expect to have all their dirty laundry aired out in public. When Mr Limbaugh condemned drug users he should not be surprised when he is taken out tho the wood shed for the same indiscretions he decried. When Ms. Palin presents an argument that abstinence is the only policy, she should not cry sexist when she is called out on the fact that neither her nor her daughter could abide by the policy she endorses. If the conservative right wants to claim that Mr McCain is morally superior to Mr Obama because Obama used drugs (in his youth) and McCain did not then they cannot be surprised when the left trots out the fact that McCain cheated on his wife with Cindy. By the way, what do you call a woman who has sex with a married man? What do you call a man who screws around on his wife? You tell me what to call them and I shall oblige.
As for majority rule .. are you sure you want to stick with that theory? I though we had a constitution to protect us from majority (mob) rule? A few examples come to mind .... Jim Crow, Plessy V Ferguson, school integration, womens suffrage just to name a few. There were laws that were 'obviously' wrong until the courts stepped in and reversed them. One would be hard pressed to argue that a majority of the people supported the reversal of those laws. As I recall, the national guard was called out to protect the students going to school in Alabama IIRC.
The bottom line is that I do not care that the majority of the people in my county/city do not want me buying liquor before 12n on a Sunday. The US constitution gives no basis for this law. The State Constitution gives no basis for the law. Unfortunately, the cities have been given free reign over this issue. Until a few years ago, my county was dry. That means no where in my county lines could I buy beer or wine much less a bottle of Jack. I had to drive 35 miles round trip to buy liquor. I had to drive 35 miles because I live in the freaking bible belt where apparently liquor is a sin but I'll be damn if this area does not have one of the highest ratio of sex clubs to people in the nation.
So pardon me if I ask the right wing nuts to keep their bloody holier then thou attitudes out of politics and my home. If you choose to believe in religion, knock you self out. This is a free nation after all. AllI ask is that you repspect my beliefs as well and not force your beliefs on me.
And I still think Clinton, Ginrich and McCain are sluts for cheating on their spouse and Cindy is a slut for banging a married man.
