Conservatism includes pulling together to do what's necessary in time of war, last time I checked. Perhaps your history books missed that. It's in my books beginning with the American Revolution.

And, nobody here will ever vote for me. I've run my last race. All I deal in now is facts and logic. Sorry that combination bothers you.

Conservatism includes pulling together to do what's necessary in time of war...

But not to do what's unnecessary, just to give our Betters the thrill of virtue imposed....

Incidentally, we aren't at war. We aren't at peace, either, but war is a heck of a lot more serious business than whatever it is the government's doing now.
