So much for the supposed truism that social conservative = fiscal conservative. There may be some overlap. They are by no means congruent.http://classicalvalues.com/2011/08/does ... dget-cuts/
It remains to be seen whether this call for social issue proposals that “appeal to the base” of the GOP is indeed being motivated by a desire from some Republicans to mitigate their ambiguous records regarding the fiscal reforms. And if this is true, it’s not clear that the “return to fiscal sanity” wing, represented by the tea party, would be so easily distracted.
All the yammering about social issues is just a cover to steal you blind. Those on the other side do the same thing. Just about different issues.
