Leftists like Devin always lie about others. You two are meant for each
other.


I'm a leftist like you're a ballet dancer.

I'm a *real* conservative, i.e. someone who believes in fiscal
responsibility (the federal debt doubled under Bush 43, the debt ceiling was
raised 7 times), an avoidance of military adventurism (Bush invaded a
country that didn't attack us) and respect for individual rights (the Bush
admin decided the Constitution prohibiting unreasonable searches doesn't
apply to warrantless wiretaps). And then there's goofs like you who *claim*
to be conservative but happily sat on your hands while all the above was
going on, but once the Dems were back in power you suddenly realized
reckless govt. spending was a bad idea. Saddam wasn't building WMDs, but
who do we hear you whining about on the subject of lying? "Leftists". You
crack me up, you're so detached from reality it's amazing if you know what
month it is. It's ill-informed dogmatic clowns like you who have reduced
American politics to something like the Jerry Springer Show. I look forward
to the day when the Republican Party regains its sanity and stops catering
to ignorant halfwits, religious nutballs and Tea Baggers, until then I'm
forced to hold my nose and support the Democrats who despite their
historical incompetence and corruption are the lesser of two evils at the
moment.

Ever see this magazine cover before? It says it all, a once proud movement
reduced to Limbaugh and Beck and Hannity leading a pack of ignorant
yahoos--the Know Nothing party rides again.

"But everything that Reagan said in 1985 about "the other side" could easily
apply to the conservatives of 2007. They are handcuffed to a political party
that looks unsettlingly like the Democrats did in the 1980s, one that is
more a collection of interest groups than ideas, recognizable more by its
campaign tactics than its philosophy. The principles that propelled the
movement have either run their course, or run aground, or been abandoned by
Reagan's legatees. Government is not only bigger and more expensive than it
was when George W. Bush took office, but its reach is also longer, thanks to
the broad new powers it has claimed as necessary to protect the homeland.
It's true that Reagan didn't live up to everything he promised: he
campaigned on smaller government, fiscal discipline and religious values,
while his presidency brought us a larger government and a soaring deficit.
But Bush's apostasies are more extravagant by just about any measure you
pick."
