This is an excellent list.  By "choice" I assume you mean choice with
regard to school vouchers, not abortions.

Here are some others:

tort reform, faith-based, welfare mothers, strict constructionism,
original interpretation [of the Constitution], creation science,
tax-and-spend, pro-life, tree-hugger, Feminazi, morality
