I'm disappointed that Santorum is on the list of speakers. Sure, he's a "good" Christian, but he's a pretty lousy limited government conservative. The research I did on him when he was in the primaries last time around, indicate a politician who wears his personal religiosity on his sleeve to make himself look saintly (which the Founders never did, though they openly referenced Christianity in forming the Constitution and Declaration of Independence) but who lacks entirely the will or intention of shrinking government.
Being against abortion doesn't make you a conservative. It makes you against abortion. I know many liberal Democrats who, like me, are Christians who hate abortion. They are not limited government Christian conservatives ... and neither is Santorum. *sigh*
Great point of yours! “Being against abortion doesn’t make you a conservative. It makes you against abortion.”
I also noticed that along with sef-promoting Santorum, Paul Ryan has also been asked to speak. So much for not going with “Party leadership.”

Well said. We lost the limited G’ment group early in the Republican primaries. Too bad so Sad.
Waiting to see how Texas’ primaries go today
