Republicans want to take away peoples' right to VOTE.
Do I believe those two statements are BAD? YES. How can you not?
If you're for a small government, what someone does with their body is none of your concern. But Republicans/Conservatives only CLAIM to be for a small government. They WANT laws against abortion and gay marriage - things that a small government would not concern itself with.
I don't think there's a lot of support for being against same sex marriage.

The GOP support for it is at 49%. I really don't think this is a huge issue for most conservative voters, which obviously includes some independents. Abortion is far trickier, as people genuinely believe, not without some justification, that such an act is murdering a child. I understand that you don't believe that, neither do I, but I can absolutely see how someone gets there logically.
