Probably because conservatives want to return to "the good ol' days" as Minimalist described. Most conservatives hate the progress that's been made the past 100, hell make that 200, years in this country as far as civil rights and freedom. They'd love to go back to a time where certain members of society were oppressed just for being born anything other than a white male landowner.

Kind of like how Andy Schlafly is rewriting the bible to make it fit with conservative views.
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.
