Is economic conservatism inconsistent with religious belief? Ping to Today show list.

If Economic Conservatives don’t go to church, does that make Mike Huckabee the Tax and Spend Messiah?

[samtheman]

I don’t believe that the majority of Christians actually want their taxes raised. I think they’re just willfully looking the other way. They see Huckabee as a good Christian and they don’t want to look at his true soul. Just like the Catholic church looking away from the sins of some priests.

People see what they want to see. Christians, too.

As an ‘economic conservative’ (i.e. classical liberal on economic matters) who is neither a protestant nor a secularist, I see no point in America having a protestant socialist party (which is what the Republicans would become if Huckabee got the nomination) and a secularist socialist party (which is what the Democrats have been since at least the 1960’s if not the 1930’s).
