A devout follower of the conservative ideal of small government ...when it comes to the economy. A neo-conservative will gnaw at the very soul of anyone who disagrees with him/her on moral issues, however.
A neo-conservative politician doesn't care about people who live in poverty, because of his/her "conservative" ideals. This same "conservative", however, will fight life and limb against homosexuality, because it is "wrong" (i.e. he/she doesn't agree with it). He/she will try to put the Bible in public schools because he/she believes that it is the work of God.

Something exemplified in the other two definitions for, "Conservative bias." Conservative bias, while not as unchecked as the liberal media might lead you to believe, is most present in Christian fundamentalist organizations, such as those owned by Pat Robertson, Jerry Falwell, James Dobson, and Gary Bauer, who donate millions each to members of the republican party.
Bill O'Reilly and Rush Limbaugh are often criticized for their apparent conservative bias, but this bias is also present in Michael Savage, Michal Medved, and Bill Bennet. The latter two are often overlooked due to the oversaturation of controversial conservatives in the media.
