If anybody questions how conservative America is compared to its peers, just remember that there are people out there like barfbag who think Bill O'Reilly is too liberal.

And to answer the question, I think white southern evangelicals are a different breed. Outside the south, some evangelicals are more open to the social justice side of Christianity and might be more likely to oppose the death penalty or support a greater social safety net. However, I think that in the south there really is no difference between the GOP and evangelical Christianity. Whatever the GOP is pushing becomes what the preachers are shouting from the pulpit, and vice versa.

Please find for me where I said O'Reilly is too liberal. This is what Democrats do. They put words in the mouths of others because they have no agenda other than bringing down those around them. In what post did I say O'Reilly is too liberal? I know I said he's center-right. Center-right doesn't mean liberal. I have an idea for you and it's called not making things up.

Huh

Come on dude. I've been watching O'Reilly for years. Every now and then he makes some moderate hero concessions to keep up his independent credentials, but most of his viewpoints are pretty conservative. I'll admit, I haven't watched him in a while since I got rid of my cable but the last time I saw his show I remember him ranting for an entire hour about the war on Christmas, as is the cherished holiday tradition over at Fox News
