Conservatives can, and should, multi-task. I am concerned about both. Santorum is a much better candidate on that basis alone.

Good observation. But all issues should be raised in common sense terms that most folks can grasp. For example: “If you want to believe that we are descended from monkeys, OK, but I don’t,” rather than, “There is no provable scientific basis for the evolutionary tree-diagram.”
I’ll grant you that.
Clearly stated, the effect that the left’s war on the traditional American nuclear family has had on fiscal issues (such as the cost of health care alone) can be a powerful and potent message. The messages interlock. I wish more people could see that.

This is a fine illustration of how to sound ignorant when talking to people about evolution, since the theory does not claim that people are descended from monkeys. On the other hand, if you are talking to people who are even more ignorant, it might work.
