Basically, fiscal conservatism means that you don't spend any more than you have coming in. While it can be referred to cutting spending and lowering taxes, it would ALSO apply to raising spending and raising taxes.
What Republicans advocate is not fiscal conservatism -- it's just plain fiscal irresponsibility.
