“And apparently yours is to insult and provide unsubstantiated conjecture. Hallmarks of conservatism they are not!”

Absolutely correct. One of the hallmarks of conservatism is supposed to be respect for reality and a willingness to honestly face it whether one likes what it is currently indicating or not.

William F. Buckley solidified the modern conservative when he stood athwart history and shouted “stop.” He then made cogent, reasoned arguments based on facts and reality. He didn’t just make up wild, insane stuff and spew it.
