Help me out here - what ARE Republican "Family Values"?

[johnaries]

I'm thinking back to the mid-90's, when some reporter asked some woman why she supported the Repukes, and she said "because they stand for Family Values". The reporter then asked "What are Family Values"?.... The woman couldn't answer. She had no idea. But it sounded good!

I'd like to create a list of what Republicans seem to consider "Family Values" are, based on their stances and platforms since the mid-90's.

I'll get the list started. I'll get the list started, and I'd like to point out that the Reublicans are the ones who claim they are AGAINST "big" government and support "less" government interference (although "less government interference" seems to only apply to Major Corporations).

Republican Family Values List

1. The Government decides whether you can live or die (reference: Capital Punishment, Assisted Suicide, Terri Schiavo, etc.)

2. The Government decides whether or not you should have children. (Re: Abortion, Birth Control)

3. The Government decides who can or cannot marry.

4. The Government decides who you can or cannot have sex with.

5. The Government decides if you should or should not endure chronic pain (re: medical marijuana)

6. The Government decides what parts of your life can be "secret" and what parts are open to public scrutiny (R: Right to Privacy)

7. The government decides what movies or TV shows you can watch.

Well, that's what I though of, just off the top of my head. Who can complete the list?

Once the list is complete, can we circulate it to let the people who support Republican Family Values know just what they are really up to?
