If I remember right, Lee’s plan was lost at Antietam.

Technically speaking, Conservatism died when the British Monarchy fell to the Magna Carta. “Conserve The Monarchy” is the origin of the political term.

The author singles out the day John McCain became the GOP candidate as the day conservatism died.

Sad to say, it died a lot further back than that, as far back as the inauguration of Bush 43 as POTUS or even of his daddy.

The capture of Lee's battle plan at Gettysburg.

Is this one of those "alternate history" things?

If the article’s as bad on policy as it is on history [couldn’t raise it on my computer], it’s not worth reading:

[1] They captured Lee’s battleplan at ANTIETAM, NOT Gettysburg,
[2] Churchill wasn’t elected in WW II. He was appointed it after the Commons voted ‘no confidence’ in Chamberlain,
[3] What ‘siege of Moscow’? Napoleon captured it, the Germans were driven back in front of it, Charles XII never went there, and the Mongols burned it to the ground.

Please. The democrat party has been tring to kill conservatism virtually since it’s beginning. At least since the presidency of Wilson who publically denounced the ideology of the Founders.

This ideology is still not dead and has many followers even though it has been viscously attacked all of this time.

We need to fight on!!!

This Blago scandal is the best thing for conservativism. We’re against corruption. Many Americans are interested in this story because it’s “simple” to understand (selling a seat).
Conservatism is ready for a revival right now!!!

Let’s keep our noses clean and expose this s***
