I am sorry but I do not see your conservatism, at least not on most issues.

It appears that losers are usually angry. The "Far-Right" is angry because they lost. They lost, first of all, because the Republican party chose a candidate who was NOT a far-right-wing nut and that made them mad. Remember Limbaugh raging against McCain?

Then McCain, to appease this vocal but tiny faction of the Republican party, chose---out of desperation because he was badly losing not because he was a moderate Republican trying so hard to appear conservative but because he was just... bad (as in "out of touch," "unintelligible," "ridiculous," etc.), he chose a far-right-wing nut, Sarah Palin, as his running mate. That sure was a clever move (not!). Ever the gambler, that McCain!

So, let's get this straight: it's not the liberals who are mad, or the centrists, or even the center-of-right folk; no, it's the far-right-wing, socially conservative, bible-thumping fundamentalists who are FURIOUS! They have lost, and lost not just this election, but the whole shebang. And until they get on board with a nation that desires to move in a progressive direction, they'll continue to lose.
If you are referring to me as a "socially conservative, bible-thumping fundamentalist" you are inaccurate. And you are dellusional if you think you took back power from the government by electing a well spoken salesman.

You are not only one of the angry, frustrated libs, but you are clearly a non-believer that needs guidance from our Lord Savior Jesus Christ.

Oh let the wickedness of the wicked come to an end; but establish the just: for the righteous God trieth the hearts and reins.
My defence is of God, which saveth the upright in heart.
God judgeth the righteous, and God is angry with the wicked every day.
If he turn not, he will whet his sword; he hath bent his bow, and made it ready.
He hath also prepared for him the instruments of death; he ordaineth his arrows against the persecutors.
Behold, he travaileth with iniquity, and hath conceived mischief, and brought forth falsehood.
He made a pit, and digged it, and is fallen into the ditch which he made.

His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violent dealing shall come down upon his own pate.
I will praise the LORD according to his righteousness: and will sing praise to the name of the LORD most high.
Psalms 7:9-17

The races remaining "pure"? Hahahaha. You need to get into some therapy ASAP.

You also need to be evaluated if you seriously think those laws would pass in ANY state in the US.

Not to mention the fact that the SCOTUS would certainly have something to say about the laws.

You obviously need to be enlightened by God's word also.

I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee.
Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession.
Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel.
Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth.
Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice with trembling.

Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him.
Psalms 2:7-12
