I don’t either. And this is the problem. We’ve got too many ‘conservatives’, who simply aren’t so.

And you're a n00b who is here to define what a Conservative is?

What is YOUR definition?

As long as the Nev Chamberlins are roaming free spouting ‘Peace in our time!’ then we are hosed. We can look to any number of examples in history showing movements destroyed from within. Conservatism will be no different.

The phrase ‘A republic if you can keep it” springs to mind. How exactly do we keep it or conservatism viable when on one thread you see calls to mocerate over abortion, on another to moderate the immigration issue, another to accept liberal candidates and campaign for them and the like?

You can’t. People just want to be able to have their liberalism and call it by another name.
