I am a conservative

Not by any definition that means anything.

...but I'm also pragmatic.

No, you just think you are. The actual term is "shortsighted."

I'm sick and tired of Republicans who want to expand government via their religious beliefs.

That's what it always comes down to with people like you, really. You despise Christians, especially those with the gall to fight for what they believe in the public arena.

That is simply not true. I don't need politicians preaching morality, that's all.

I'm not advocating for Republicans to abandon moral issues. But they don't have to run on it 24/7 either. Conservative voters already know Republican candidates will be on the right side of social issues. So why do Republicans continue being redundant then?

Ronald Reagan called himself a PRAGMATIST! I guess that means that Reagan wasn't a Conservative.
