heretic home heretic or about me the declaration of independence the constitution of the united states the bill of rights constitution of the state of kansas principles abortion posted by the republican heretic in uncategorized on sat 08 sep 2012 i ll start with the sticky wicket and i ll start with a very simple statement to a very complex issue abortion is wrong i think most people will agree with that on some level even people who support it there are very few people who would celebrate it as a good and wonderful act abortion is the ending of a human life leftists try desperately to ignore this simple fact it makes it easier for them to pretend that abortion isn t wrong and to dismiss arguments from the right that it is wrong anyone who has had or known someone who has had a child knows that a growing fetus is human and is felt and loved as one and if it dies is mourned as one and as far as i am concerned ignoring the humanity of an unborn child is one of the worst elements of the abortion debate to ignore the humanity of a person is to allow one to commit any atrocity without compunction and the history of various socialisms bear this out sometimes wrong things are necessary and here s the sticky part sometimes what is wrong takes back seat to what is necessary stealing is wrong but if you re starving you ll steal to feed your family killing people is wrong but is acceptable in cases of self defense and even celebrated in war and sometimes killing an unborn child is what is absolutely necessary either to protect the life of the mother or the well being and survival of the rest of the family keeping a wrong thing legal makes it less dangerous here s the libertarian in me coming out just because something is wrong does not mean it should be illegal the leftists are right that keeping abortion illegal makes it safer as does keeping it available because if something is necessary but inaccessible then it will be done anyway and the results can be worse the left is wrong however in equating accessibility with taxpayer funding the left will assert that refusing to have the federal government fund abortion is the same as making abortion illegal and this is absurdly false men should be involved in decisions to abort this is another thing the left like to ignore the father should have input on the decision to abort a child it is not a choice that is a woman s alone and this is very apparent when one considers than while women may choose whether or not to give birth men bear responsibility for that choice a man cannot force a woman to carry and give birth to a child he wants but she does not but a woman can force a man to be financially responsible for eighteen years to a child she wants but he does not keeping abortion legal and accessible does not serve as an endorsement of it keeping things legal and available does not confirm a moral support to them it affirms that by allowing it in certain circumstances it can keep them safer for all involved nevada has demonstrated this with prostitution there are numerous studies that suggest the same for drugs and the right needs to accept that it can issue a moral condemnation without a legal prohibition the conflation of the two is the right s biggest problem abortion principles leave a comment principles posted by the republican heretic in uncategorized on sat 08 sep 2012 i ve been ponder a few things lately like why am i a republican like what issues i agree with the gop on and what issues i agree with the democrats with like what the philosophical difference are between the parties and where i stand if i don t side with one over the other so i m going to be putting together a few posts on basic principles positions and worldviews what i stand for what i oppose and why and what i m ready to compromise on and which lesser evil i will side with i wouldn t mind if any of my few remaining readers commented or presented input on what i have to say but if i m to re start this blog i need to establish a baseline this is where i stand gop heresy heretic principles reboot leave a comment still alive posted by the republican heretic in uncategorized on wed 18 jul 2012 yes i m still out there just been way too busy to put in the time and effort to keep up the blog i ve got a twitter account going though and i ll be tossing out the occasional comments and links now and then twitter feed will be displayed at the right and anyone on twitter can follow me there gopheretic cheers leave a comment campus due process and sexual assault posted by the republican heretic in education on mon 18 jul 2011 cases like the duke lacrosse case have brought some light to the surprising lack of due process that exists when charges of sexual harassment or assault are brought on a college campus trevor burrus at the cato institute discusses this in light of two occurrences an op ed in the wall street journal pay site which tells the tale of a student found guilty of sexual assault by a university even as his accuser was charged with lying to police about the incident and and order from the department of education that effectively lessens the burden of proof required by universities to reach a guilty finding read the rest of this entry leave a comment courts gags divorced father posted by the republican heretic in federal and constitutional law state law on mon 18 jul 2011 an interesting case highlighted by eugene volokh at the volokh conspiracy a court bans a father from making any comments about his ex wife in a public forum if the father says anything about the mother in public he could be sent to jail for contempt of court the order isn t limited to banning libelous statements though i think even such a much narrower ban would itself pose constitutional problems especially under pennsylvania law nor is it even limited to statements about minor children though even that sort of order strikes me as constitutionally impermissible rather the court order categorically orders the removal of a web site and prohibits all public statements factually accurate or not by one person about another person i guess in pennsylvania the first amendment doesn t count for much anymore an archived version of the site that started it all can be found here 1 comment gaffes posted by the republican heretic in media on sun 17 jul 2011 i think this gem from andrew klavan speaks for itself leave a comment debt posted by the republican heretic in economy and spending national politics regulation and big government on sun 17 jul 2011 john hayward at human events has an analysis on the current debate over the federal debt and the debt limit put simply hayward believes that the huge debt burden carried by our bloated government is an intentional and vital element of maintaining that bloated mass high corporate and individual tax rates lead to high unemployment rates if you suggest reducing those tax rates to spur private sector growth and lower unemployment you will be accused of making the debt situation worse that wouldn t be very intimidating if the national debt was low why not lower those taxes and see if the resulting growth generated more net revenue at the lower rates read the rest of this entry leave a comment overregulation posted by the republican heretic in uncategorized on sat 16 jul 2011 phillip greenspan has a personal account of excessive inefficient and overly redundant government regulation and how it impacts his own small business finally the faa inspector looked at my random drug testing program to make sure that everything was in place i m subject to the same drug testing requirements as united airlines i am the drug testing coordinator for our company so i am responsible for scheduling drug tests and surprising employees when it is their turn to be tested as it happens i m also the only safety sensitive employee subject to drug testing so basically i m responsible for periodically surprising myself with a random drug test as a supervisor i need to take training so that i can recognize when an employee is on drugs but i m also the only employee so really this is training so that i can figure out if i myself am on drugs as an employee i need to take a second training course so that i learn about all of the ways that my employer might surprise me with a random drug test and find out about drug use but i m also the employer so really i m learning about how i might trap myself read the whole thing h t walter olson at the cato institute leave a comment marriage and government posted by the republican heretic in gblt on sat 16 jul 2011 glenn beck s trusty radio sidekick stu has a great take on the governmental approval of same sex marriage think about your marriage if you have one and break it up by percentage yes i m a true romantic where do you get the value in your marriage what is important love obviously this is usually number one faith recognition by your church faith is important to most but not all family recognition by your family important to some kids having the most stable unit possible to raise a family important to many government having faceless bureaucrats hang on to paperwork acknowledging you got married for one or more of the other reasons important to read the rest of this entry 1 comment for your own good posted by the republican heretic in regulation and big government on fri 15 jul 2011 jacob sullum at reason comments on the government s new imperative to demand that you purchase a more efficient and cost effective product that costs you 10 times more than the more popular model jenkins says those efficiency standards are clearly justified because the industry supports them and because they benefit consumers who will save enough money on electricity to more than make up for higher bulb prices consumers of course have always been free to take advantage of this bargain and the vast majority have not according to the energy department pdf more than 80 percent of residential light sockets were still occupied by standard incandescent bulbs last year because consumers are too stupid to perceive the clear advantages of compact fluorescent lamps cfls led bulbs halogen bulbs or the new extra efficient incandescents they must be forced to buy them is it surprising that manufacturers support a law that allows them to foist newer more expensive products on customers who otherwise would pass them up read the rest of this entry 1 comment older entries the republican heretic promote
