To incite their conservative base, the Romney and Santorum
campaigns have turned away from the economy to family values. And they have focused on women's rights and
health services. From their perspective
men -- the strict fathers -- control reproduction. From the Republican point-of-view, unmarried
women who have sex are immoral, and providing them with birth control supports
immoral behavior.
Republicans have a consistent conservative philosophy that
they dogmatically promulgate. Their
objective is not merely to elect a true believer such as Santorum or (perhaps)
Romney. The GOP objective is reverse the
gains made in the sixties -- gains they link to "sixties values." Republicans plan to destroy the civil-rights movement,
the consumer movement, the environmental movement, the gay-rights movement, and
the women's movement.
