I'm a conservative talk show junkie. And the National Hosts for most of the shows I listen to are out of California or at least the West Coast. So when the recall of California Governor Davis was happening in 2003 I took great interest, and so did many talk show hosts. Unfortunately hosts such as Hugh Hewitt, Michael Medved and I believe even Dennis Prager all threw their support behind Arnold Schwarzenegger, because they rationalized, "he could win" I was appalled. They had a great candidate (and a conservative one) in Tom McClintock but these 'talking heads' -in whom I generally have a great respect for- created a self-fulfilling prophecy that McClintock was unelectable. Now California has a Pro-Abortion governor who is actively trying to eliminate marriage entirely from the most populace state in the union (from CNA):
It was revealed today that Attorney General Jerry Brown and Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger have stated that the terms “marry” and “marriage” have no significance in the state’s constitution and can therefore be changed.Hooray for our conservative talking heads! They got a RINO (republican in name only) for a governor and now we are paying the price!
The briefs also reveal that the attorney general and the governor agree that benefits which are currently afforded to husbands and wives could be eliminated by the California Legislature.
Schwarznegger’s August 17 brief states, “…except for the ability to choose and declare one's life partner in a reciprocal commitment of mutual support, any of the statutory rights and obligations that are afforded to married couples in California could be abrogated or eliminated by the Legislature or the electorate for any rational legislative purpose.” [emphasis added]
(Aw Shucks, who needs marriage anyway? it's only the central core structure to all great societies. It's only the best way to bring up well adjusted children. Who needs it? Not the Kids! Not the parents! Why should the Government do anything to support the most basic unit of society, what possible good can there be in that? Nah, Lets build Sports Stadiums! People really like them.)
What is the point in electing a Republican when they are on the same side as the Democrats on the most important issues? PLEASE, PLEASE don't tell me they will do the same thing for Rudy Giuliani. So far these hosts have refrained from an official endorsement of any candidate (although Hewitt could be on Mitt Romney's campaign without making much changes to his broadcast) they have not denounced Giuliani. Conservatives need to stay away from pro-abortion, and anti-marriage candidates with a ten foot pole. Let them know they are in the wrong party, and feel free to check out catholicsagainstrudy.com
