In the last decade or so, conservatives have claimed for themselves the mantle of "Champion of Family Values" for as they see it, they've been on the "right" side of issues such as abortion, education, and prayer in public schools. Yet when it comes to protecting the rights of children abused by predatory adults, these same conservatives have often sided with the institutions that hide and protect the abusers. What's wrong with this picture? Well, it's money. The conservatives who have claimed family values as their rallying cry now protect the deep pocketed institutions that support them. An excellent analysis of the situation is given by Professor Marci Hamilton in today's Find Law http://writ.news.findlaw.com/hamilton/20060406.html
