There is nothing in the oath of office about pretending to be a better religious fruitcake than the other guy.

Really dude? You are going to call people like Reagan who was a social Conservatives along with Palin, Rubio, Toomey, Santorum, DeMint, et al a bunch of Religious Fruitcake Pretenders? Isn't there a Libertarian chat room somewhere waiting for your input on Ron Paul's campaign run?

Reagan did not, and Palin hasn't, come forth proclaiming their Holy Assembly of Snake Handling Snaggletooths as a primary qualification of political leadership.

There is a great difference between political conservatives who have "social values", and the fraudulent "social conservatives" who tend to use any means, political or otherwise, to advance their fraudulent snake-oil sales.

You obviously belong to the latter group, or you lack the discernment to differentiate the true from the false.
