I hope it’s plain that I am not attacking fiscal conservatism, but those who treat “fiscal conservatism” as if it’s something opposed to conservatism in general, or specifically social conservatives. Such “fiscal conservatives,” like Christine Todd Whitman, Bob and Elizabeth Dole, Rudy Giuliani, Arnold Schwartzenegger, Arlen Specter, etc., all turn out to be fiscally liberal too.
We haven’t had a FisCon in office since Reagan. Most social issues can be addressed through economic means. Defund programs that are offensive to SoCons and everyone can be happy.
Fiscal conservatism combined with social liberalism is an oxymoron. You can't be socially irresponsible without becoming fiscally irresponsible...
It is the DNA of RINO and simply results in Democrat lite syndrome...
No RINOS! No Liberal Lounge Lizard Republicans! No Moderates! No Sunshine Patriots, No Pinko Democrats! True Conservatives Only. We must clean out the House and Senate and the state houses too. Elect Citizen-Politicians who will not make a life time career out of the pork and corruption (Think Barney Franks). We need all true Americans to look beyond the bumper stickers and 30 second TV ads and look to what people believe. There is Hope.
1. Look at the following of plain speaking Ron Paul.
2. Look at the following of Glen Beck.
3. Look to the Tea Parties.
4. Look to the following of Sarah Palin.
5. Look to the disgust at the “bailouts”
6. Look at the awful treatment of GM.
7. Look to a new spirit in the land.
ON TO WASHINGTON!
