How to baffle a Conservative:

Advertisements [?]

Ask them this:

"Describe, as you understand it, the difference between morals and ethics."

Be prepared for stammering.

Extra credit: "What, as you understand it, is a Value?" When they start reeling off 'family, faith, duty, honor, country' you must step in and say, "I didn't ask you to name values, I asked you to describe what a value is".

Simple questions, that in my experience, causes the same look to appear on a conservative's face as that of my dog when I try to show him a card trick.
