Remember, when you hear about how important it is that the next Republican nominee for President have “gravitas,” the following have been designed by people with gravitas:
* The TSA’s scanning and groping system.
* Obamacare.
* Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and the mortgage bubble.
* Our tax code.
* Our federal and state budget deficits.
* Our immigration system.
* (feel free to add more in the comments)We need gravitas, because gravitas has worked so well so far.

* Gay marriage (not necessarily happy marriage)
* Gays in military
* Females in combat roles. A one-way ticket out is to party with the boyz and get pregnant. Helps heighten morale on "front".
* Can't drill oil offshore (onshore prohibitions pending; lookout ND)
* Backroom politics (not on C-Span as promised)
* Excessively lengthy legislation that hands over power to executive branch well after the fact of voting to further define and create law (i.e. healthcare; law can become whatever president wants; law is created by those not duly representing the People in a legislative format, actually being unconstitutional; same damn thing happened in clean air and water acts, except healthcare is much, much worse.)
