Don't you believe it! Conservative parties are all about control. They'll
cut spending (maybe), but it'll be in social welfare areas... public health,
public housing, welfare, education, all the good stuff. The war on drugs,
the military, the police... well, someone's gotta keep all those
disenfranchised scum in line, no?
Conservatism, religious or otherwise, does not equal individual freedom.
