From the Bull Moose
Conservatism R.I.P.
The Moose notes the passing of conservatism.
<snip>
At its heart, conservatism had reverence for process and order. But what we are witnessing now is the triumph of ends over means. That is exactly what the right loathed about the left.
<snip>
Process no longer matters to the right - after all they are on the side of the angels. Whether it is pork barrel spending , the Senate filibuster or federal intervention in a family dispute, modern conservatism knows no boundaries. The right is now intoxicated with power - process is for wimps.

Look in the mirror conservatives - you have become your own worst enemy.
