New word (for me): THEOCONSERVATIVE
"Theoconservatism is a political philosophy commonly associated within the United States with the Christian Right. In general it refers to those people who believe not only that God's Law ought to play a larger role in public life, but that the more socially convervative aspects of that Law ought to be enforced."

2. I know it's not a new word to others here...
but it's much more applicable given the McCain-Palin ticket.

:)

4. That's a good definition.
Obviously a lot can be said about how much power the Theoconservatives actually have (particularly compared to the corporate interests) but they certainly exist and are certainly doing the best they can to take us that direction.

5. Between the neocons, the theocons and the corporatocracy...
we patriots have quite a war on our hands.
