Sorry, but that is not how I define Conservatism

Rick Santorum, as I have said has lots of good points, and is right on lots of issues, but he is just a bit, OK more than just a bit TOO Socially Conservative for my taste. Consider this

Here is what Santorum told NPR about the role of government in 2006:

“This whole idea of personal autonomy, well I don’t think most conservatives hold that point of view. Some do. They have this idea that people should be left alone … [that] government should keep our taxes down and keep our regulations low, that we shouldn’t get involved in the bedroom, we shouldn’t get involved in cultural issues. … Well, that is not how traditional conservatives view the world and I think most conservatives understand that individuals can’t go it alone.”

Yes Rick, I do believe in personal autonomy, and should be left alone by government, And yes Rick, what goes on in my bedroom, which, sadly ain’t much of late, is damned sure none of the government’s business! Sorry Senator Santorum, but you are wrong on this. The government that governs best governs least, and yes Rick, that includes our sex lives.
