His last sentence really got to me.
Politically, these can be "times that try men's souls" -- for those who still have souls and haven't sold them
I'd like to see him on SCOTUS

As usual, a brilliant Thomas Sowell article.

What Thomas Sowell is saying in nice words can be put more bluntly:

1] Sowell indicates that the Republicans have moved hard left.

2] Sowell implies that the Republicans lack spine.

3] Sowell minces words but says the "RATs tail" wags the "Repubs Dog".

4] Sowell lists reasons why the Republicans are not conservative.

Thomas Sowell used different words, but the fact is this is exactly what Sowell is saying, the same things many here on FR say, the TRUE CONSERVATIVES. We get flamed by the cheerleaders when we say these truths, but these are the truths we must confront.

It is time conservative activists, like those of us on FR, start fighting for this nation and for the conservative cause, and STOP believing and wishing and praying that George Bush grows spine and acts like a majority rule president.

Republicans does NOT = conservatives in Washington.

Activists need to STOP doing the "Democrats vs. Republicans" thing (like Sean Hannity continually does) and START discriminating between radical leftists and conservatives.

George Bush should not be cheered on with every step, but watched VERY closely and held to strict accountability as he easily moves hard left when he walks, never to the right.
