Gird your loins, conservatives

What do we do now? We do what we’ve always done.

We stand up for our principles, as we always have — through Democrat administrations and Republican administrations, in bear markets or bull markets, in peacetime and wartime. Full Story »

Dwight Rousu
1.7
by Dwight Rousu - Nov. 5, 2008

Short and brutish. It ignores the complete lack of principles the Republicans exhibited in repeated lies and negative attacks upon Obama and attempts to misrepresent his platform. What principles? It ignores that events have discredited many of their beliefs, and fails to advocate reevaluating policies and beliefs in the face of reality. It advocates opposition and fighting about anything they can anticipate might happen, rather than working cooperatively in ways suggested by the votes of the people. Poorly reasoned and poorly written.

It's quality opinion, not necessarily quality journalism. It gives good insight into what conservative strategy will be in the coming months.

This isn't journalism, it's a partisan trying to still be relevant. ("We lock and load our ideological ammunition. We fight.") Right. A very poor choice of words.

America saw through the fear mongering and the hate speak, and they know now that 'fiscal conservative' belongs on the shelf next to 'separate but equal' -- (perhaps I should have said belongs in the dust bin ). A fantasy that has been exposed.

Donald Hall
2.1
by Donald Hall - Nov. 5, 2008

It isn't journalism, it's exhortation.

A call to arms for a justly tarnished "cause" which can only see the world in negative terms. A great leap forward to the twentieth century, while carefully observing sound nineteenth century principles.
