So you want to be free to rape a child as long as it is in the sanctity of your bedroom?
Typical far right thinking and and outright LIE. No one here advocates such a thing, there are laws against such things, but what two consenting Adults do in their bedroom is none of the your, or the governments, business, Period. Oh and the poll numbers here Prove Americans think the same way.
It's not the government's job to promote traditional values,...that job belongs to the family.However, I would like to see elected politicians conduct themselves by traditional values such as honesty, obeying the law, upholding their oath of office, not accepting bribes (or campaign contributions in exchange for special favors), not cheat on their spouse (at least not until after divorce proceedings have been started), and doing what's best for the city, state, our country rather than what's best for the political party they're a member of. At one time among politicians, being called a "party man" was considered a grave insult because it meant you put your party ahead of your country. Other traditional values people should be teaching their children include placing a high value on education, personal responsibility, honoring people who earn an honest living, looking down upon those who choose to commit a life of crime.
I would like our government to be held accountable like the above. I'll take care of my (and my families) values.
Those aged 18-34 are the most likely to say the govt should be doing so at 53%, which is up from 38% in 2008. In 2008, they were the least likely of any age group to support promoting traditional values, now they're the most supportive of it.
43% of adults aged 35-54 say the same as do 51% of those 55 and older.
I'm not even sure what "traditional" values are. Are they your traditional values or someone elses? Are they the values of your grandparents or your grandkids? Should the traditional values of one group supersede the traditional values of another?
I think everyone's traditional values, whatever they may be, should be promoted in their homes, in their houses of worship and in the way they conduct their lives not via Government decree.
Traditional values are what America was built on . Such as honor, integrity, respect for oneself and others.
Commitment, honesty and decency in business and in family.. It is character building of a nation and individuals.. It is the fabric of our country and its people.

All nice traits, but the government cannot legislate them into happening and they should not be trying, it ain't their JOB. That is YOUR job, pass on your values to your children and live by example.
they goto church
he works. she stays at home.
they are a 'nuclear' family
etc, etc
stay out of personal life is more like it.
most of our 'elected' are no better than favre, woods, etc and don't get me started on the 'supposed' mega-church leaders doing drugs, male prostitutes, etc...but all is forgiven
start your traditional values at home and be an example for your kids, neighbors, etc 1st before asking someone else to be the example
How about everyone watching "Little House On The Prarie" or "The Andy Griffith Show" for some pointers.
I have watched Andy Griffith, great show. Every Tbagger I have met always reminds me of Barney Fife. You know always needing a gun, but could not be trusted not to shoot himself in the foot.
Andy was the liberal on the show. He used common sense and did not need a gun.

Why do people such as yourself feel the need to lie to make a point?
