[QUOTE=andgar923]Some (forefathers) would, and some wouldn't.
Some people are simply more liberal (open minded, not the fake liberals we have today) than others.
1. I don't care what you think.
2. It's their business what they do[/QUOTE]
liberal in the 21st century=scum
[QUOTE=andgar923]A strict constitutionalist= idiot
The constitution was made to adapt and change, not be iron clad.[/QUOTE]
Have you even read the Constitution, or the Federalist papers? It only just barely passed as it was; it wouldn't have come close to passing if the signers knew the states would be superseded by a Federal bureaucratic superstate of absurd proportions (or if it were intended as a one-way and ever-expanding venus fly trap). If the Constitution were infinitely malleable and devoid of static principles then there would have been no point in creating the thing in the first place - they would simply have accepted Federal arbitrary power from the off if what you say were true (which it isn't).
It has within it one means of changing itself, and that is through Constitutional amendments. Good luck passing one of those that takes marriage away from the states. Funny that you think we've progressed politically, when the economic landscape now looks like something out of the Mercantilist era, which was the exact aristocratic system the founders were trying to oppose. Now we have a kind of Mercantilism again, and people like you aren't even aware of it (probably because you're focused on retarded questions about homosexuals and other trivialities, while you are effectively being robbed).
[QUOTE=andgar923]It was a simple question that should've been answered without any issue.
I didn't know this was 1990 and 'gay' was still a hard topic.
He could've simply answered as he had in the past, and kept it moving... but he was clearly defensive and ducking it.
And f*ck off.
I don't know anything about Cruz or any candidate as [B]I stopped following politricks years ago.[/B][/QUOTE]
There we go then. You are spouting off about something you don't know anything about. That was clearly a loaded question, and a typical cheap media tactic used to smear people they don't like.
If you can't see why when you're running a Presidential campaign it might be a trifle annoying to never get any serious political questions, but to instead to be effectively slandered by the questioner, again and again and again, then you must be pretty dim. It annoys me just watching all this phoney bullshit - you seem to want more of that crap, i do not.

They call themselves child lovers lmao
Nice to see all our resident euro-trash and dumb-asses lecturing Americans on the politics of Ted Cruz.

The problem is they don't ask democrats these same dumb questions.
Why don't reporters constantly ask Hilary "why were you against gay marriage before, but now you're not? What changed? And why did your change of opinion coincide with the exact moment that public opinion hit the 50% mark".
his Christian beliefs against gays parallels ISIS muslim beliefs against gays, both based on their diehard religious beliefs. so its sort of dumb how he deflects the question. just because ISIS is more hardcore and crazy muslim than christians doesn't mean Christians can't be asked that question or be accused of the same hate against them.
he doesn't ether anyone, dude just deflected it onto ISIS.
its funny tho how mainstream America believes so much in freedom of religion and then equality of all people, and won't ever address the issues in how they contradict one another because both must be absolute :rolleyes:

For the 100th time, he doesn't deflect the question. Christian teachings teach us to love everyone unconditionally. Nor does it say to throw gay people off rooftops like ISIS does.
So to say that his beliefs parallel ISIS's is absurd.

[QUOTE=fiddy]I think if they were alive today, they wouldnt be happy with a lot of things. As for homosexuals, i dont have a problem with them as long as:
1. they keep their private life to themselves
2. are not allowed to marry
[B]3. are not allowed to raise kid[/B]
4. dont organize pointless graphic street parades "yey i like to take it up the ass" :rolleyes:[/QUOTE]
What about kids who need to be adopted? Even if you think gay parents isn't the best, it's certainly better than no parents at all, isn't it?:confusedshrug:

lol @ love everyone unconditionally :lol
its conditionally, because dedicated Christians don't put their love for 'love everybody' over what their Bible tells them.

Looks like you were suckered into believing that there's a Christian boogeyman out there by the Liberal media.
I find it funny how Cruz mentions radical Islam in his response, and how heinous they are, yet people still feel more comfortable in criticizing Christianity. Must come from that knowledge of knowing that Christians don't chop heads off.
