I think most issues are states' rights issues. I wish more in the federal government saw things that way.

Republicans appeal to state's rights when it suits their ideology, and trash those rights when it doesn't.

As Democrats claim all sorts of values under Republican administrations, which they then drop the moment they get the White House. It's been going on for decades.

Where have you been?

And it was 49 Republicans, not 29, Rodgers.

In the WaPo they had that 29 changed their vote and according to the link it was 21.

I think most issues are personal rights issues -- I wish all levels of government saw things that way.

Now, if those who oppose 'Obamacare' (Govt issued coverage) will get the fuck out of the abortion business..............

Except that it is not govt. issued coverage say as in the FDIC our single payer govt. run insurance for banks or FCIP our single payer govt. run insurance for crops. Those are 'free market' [sic] entitlements or a form of socialism for the rich. Very similar to TARP except that wasn't a govt. corporation, just a one-time handout.

The Obama medical insurance mandate for 80% of the insured is more like capitalism for the poor. Obamacare is merely a mandate that people buy their won medical insurance.
