Social conservatives have a history of supporting government activism. They used to be Southern Democrats-- fully supportive of all the expansionist agenda of FDR and LBJ, but separating on civil rights issues. The notion that "the government that governs best, governs least" was foreign to them as a blanket policy covering all government action.
Wow, this is definitely not social conservative appreciation day here.
I don't see why it is divisive or fickle for conservatives to expect the President to deliver the kind of nomination he promised when he asked for our vote.
