Strawman response. Most Americans -- liberals, conservatives, democrats, republicans, et al. -- "insist" on compliance with the Constitution.
My responses below are colored purple.
Most liberals may insist that laws that do not conform to the powers granted the federal Government by the Constitution not be passed, but they too often do not comply with that. For example, the MALs like Obama and the Democrat majority have passed laws that give the feds (i.e., the federal government) the power to take money from some private individuals or organizations and give away that money to other private individuals or organizations. No where in the Constitutions are the feds granted the power to do that.
Also, the MALs tax one's dollars of income at different rates depending on how many dollars of income one receives in a year. No where in the Constitution are the feds granted the power to do that.
Conservatives, however, have proven themselves over and over again to be hypocrites. At the same time they're insisting on compliance with the constitution, they're violating the constitution.

When does a fetus become a human? Some MACs say it's when they are conceived. Some say it's when they are fully formed humans in the uterus. Some say it's at the moment birth begins, Others say it's not until the baby's umbilical cord is cut.
Silly you. Even staunch-Catholic SC Justice Scalia, in an interview with Leslie Stahl of 60 Minutes, acknowledges the following:
"My job is to interpret the Constitution accurately. And indeed, there are anti-abortion people who think that the constitution requires a state to prohibit abortion. They say that the Equal Protection Clause requires that you treat a helpless human being that's still in the womb the way you treat other human beings. I think that's wrong. I think when the Constitution says that persons are entitled to equal protection of the laws, I think it clearly means walking-around persons."
That's not evidence that what I wrote was anything more than an incomplete characterization of what MACs believe:
When does a fetus become a human? Some MACs say it's when they are conceived. Some say it's when they are fully formed humans in the uterus. Some say it's at the moment birth begins, Others say it's not until the baby's umbilical cord is cut. STILL OTHERS BELIEVE IT'S NOT UNTIL THE BABY IS "WALKING-AROUND."
You merely encouraged expansion of my statement. You did not refute it.
Explain why conservatives pay lip service to individual rights and "insist" on compliance with the constitution and--at the same time--they "insist" on taking away the individual rights of women to determine their own procreative destinies and to pass UNCONSTITUTIONAL laws banning abortion?
Explanation = HYPOCRISY. Say one thing; do the opposite.
Yes, some MACs try "to pass UNCONSTITUTIONAL laws banning abortion." But clearly that's not true of all MACs. You are slandering ALL MACS when you accuse them all of what some do. That's evidence of standard bigotry.

Explain why conservatives pay lip service to individual rights and equal protection under the law while they're simultaneously carving out exceptions?
Could it be explained by HYPOCRISY? AGAIN?
I'm seeing a pattern here.
Equal protection of the laws is not being denied when some MACs want marriage to be the establishment of a partnership between one male and one female, but are willing to grant an equivalent protection of a partnership between two males or two females as long as it is not called marriage. How about calling it pairage?

Everyone has a right secured by the Constitution to convert public property and government buildings into places of worship and religious shrines? I didn't know that. Thanks for the education.
SOPHISTRY! I didn't write anything about CONVERTING "public property and government buildings into places of worship and religious shrines." Such property continues to be used primarily for government functions and processes. I wrote: NO ONE has the right to be free of religion in the public sector: for example, individuals are free to display on their persons or work desks, bibles and other religous artifacts that are visible to others.
Hell, atheism is as much a religion as is theism. Both are based on faith. Neither can provefor certain itself right or the other wrong. Atheist are free to display on their persons or desks their artifacts.
If what you're saying is true and everyone has a right to practice their religion in the public sector, why did the Supreme Court rule against the Summum? Why were the Summum deprived of the equal right to place a religious monument on public property when others were allowed to do so?
When the Supreme Court decided that, they violated the Constitution, thinking it had the right to amend the Constitution. There's nothing in the 1st Amendment or elsewhere denying people the right to such displays. The 9th Amendment makes it clear that just because a particular right is not enumerated in the Constitution does not mean a person does not have that right.
Who can use public property to shove their religious views down other people's throats and who can't? I'm confused by your "conservative" policy on religion in the public sphere.

MACs willingly and openly "acknowledge that workers have a right to unionize and bargain for better wages and working conditions."
MACs are opposed to forced unionism, that is, unionism that is establish by YES VOTES obtained by means of coercion. For example, MACs are opposed to non-secret ballots.
MACs are also opposed to membership in a union being a requirement to get or keep a job.
Oh. Then why did the conservatives demand on busting the unions in the automaking industry?
MACs did not do that! MACs advocate not subsizing either the automaking industry or its unions.
"Conservatives" want the greed mongers to prosper--they don't want workers to prosper. After all, every dollar paid to a worker is a dollar less in the greed monger's pocket. "Conservatives" want "capitalists" to have a large pool of cheap labor in order to maximize profit.
MALARKY! Rational People who own or run businesses know they must pay a fair wage for a fair day's work in order to prosper. Employees know they must do a fair day's work for a fair day's pay in order to prosper.
PROFIT is the GOD that "conservatives" worship far more religiously than they worship the Christian God. In other words, the GREED MONGERS use "conservatism" as the means to whip the social hypocrites into a frenzy and to get them out to vote for the candidates who will feed the GREED mongers from the government trough.
THAT'S SLANDEROUS BIGOTRY! IT IS THE MALRINOCINOS WHO ARE THE GREED MONGERS! They are greedy for what others have lawfully earned. Their chronic envy illnesses corrupt their brains to a point that they characterize MACs behaving like they, the MALRINOCINOS, actually behave. They are greedy for government to steal from those who have more and give it to them. Also, the MALRINOCINOS are greedy for power so that they can more easily steal from the more productive, while at the same time reducing what the MACs have for them to steal. In other words, the MALRINOCINOS are nuts.
"Conservatives" want the greed mongers to get all the cheese--they don't want the workers or the poor people to get any cheese. God forbid that some poor child might get fed and housed on tax dollars--oh no! You working slobs ought to be outraged that your tax dollars are being used to support the worthless scum of society. You should vote for the candidates of GREED . . . yeah, baby! "Conservatism" all the way, man!
MACs at all levels of wealth know that they must cooperate with the equally wealthy, less wealthy and more wealthy in order to accomplish their own goals. It is the MALRINOCINOS who think they will be better off if they use the government to steal for them, and not cooperate with anyone other than their fellow thieves.

NONSENSE! Show me an excerpt written by Foxfyre, or an excerpt written by me, where she or I "say one thing and do the opposite."
Seems like you are exhibiting "transference," a well known psychological character trait exhibited by many guilty persons." I bet you are probably characterizing yourself and transfering your guilt to others.
