National Review has been further exposed, as many have, as unthinking, uncritical, knee jerk, and unprincipled.

These are people that have no idea we’re in a war and that you have to pick a side and stick with it with the good the bad and the ugly.

These ivory tower idiots get their feathers ruffled up if one of us misplace a comma in a sentence.

What a joke those you mentioned and others are. Trump exposes them as slime, they loose their platforms, and have to find jobs for the lame stream media while the Donald really does things they only talked about. Good riddance.

McCarthy, good buddy of Rush, the most overrated of the overrated. Almost always wrong, but when he’s right he’s absolutely the last to the party. He told Rush that Mueller was a saint.

The National Review has been dead for years now having succumbed to an auto-immune disease wherein it was destroying itself. They just haven’t buried its rotting corpse yet which still emits evil, noxious and foul-smelling “fumes”.

Its burial is long overdue.

I agree. NR and TWS have gone full beltway trash.

That quote from Kevin is amazing in its total depravity.

I had not heard about this “Kevin Williamson” before, and what an issue for that quote to wind up in.

Virtually all of my family and friends are the people he ripped. He doesn’t know them, and he bludgeoned them.

And Rich Lowery gladly added that to the rest of the NR writers l, hoping to impugn Trump by belittling his supporters.

I want these writers to feel terrible pain.

Which shows that to publish a conservative piece, they have no choice at all but to outsource it. It’s been that way for over a decade.

Since Nicholas Frankovich was not summarily FIRED, National Review is obviously DONE.

They skulked over to the enemy camp several years ago. A useless, senescent bunch of pretentious bores.

I gave up on National Review in 2006. Cancelled my subscription.

William Buckley set the pattern - cited by the Neocons since Trump announced - of ostracising the elite-unapproved: He effectively banished the John Birchers.

I am well aware that many on this forum share his view - and I could not care less. The JBS types have been slandered and libeled for decades by the Neocons, but like Joe McCarthy they were right more than any admitted.

(No, I am not one. I simply despise intellectual elitism and bigotry, including by the vaunted WFB.)

kids who attended the March for Life


I read one article that referred to the event as “The Indigenous Peoples” March.
