Another example of a religious conservative who is an economic socialist.

Which means that he isn't a religious conservative, religious conservatives make up the foundation of economic conservatism and limited government, in America.

... religious conservatives make up the foundation of economic conservatism and limited government, in America.

That isn't the definition describing the Christian voters who voted for Santorum and Huckabee.

Many of these religious voters are conservative only when it comes to social issues (home schooling, gay marriage, right-to-life, etc.).

When it comes time to rape the taxpayer for funds to redistribute in Jesus' name, they have no qualms with doing so. They don't mind socialism on behalf of their pet causes, those that can make them feel like they're good Christians while looting their fellow man's wallet through the power of government.

I would bet half the religious conservative FReepers fit this category based on the comments I've seen here since '98.
