Radical Christians play hardball

I was going to comment on this piece in the New York Times, Backers of Gay Marriage Ban Use Social Security as Cudgel, but Yuval Rubinstein already has over at The Left Coaster so go check out what he has to say about the ultimatum the fundamentalists have given Bush.

Update
Bull Moose also ways in.

If the religious right leaders had been reading the musings of the Moose they would know that those suave and debonair Republican casanovas only want the religious right for their bodies on election day. After that, they abandon them for the true lovers - the money men. Isn't it always that way?

The social conservatives realize that the economic interests of their constituency conflict with the GOP order. But, time after time, they mislead their flock for a mess of pottage.
