I can imagine that with the last year and the continued assault on all things conservative, it's perfectly natural to be paranoid and see enemies at every turn. Which is why it's imperative for conservatives to band together. We've finally achieved control of the levers of power. The liberals and the media can't knock us off our perch, only we can.

I think the Miers nomination was a perfect example of this. I wish the President had nominated Judge Alito the first time around, but I didn't like how messy and public the fight that should have been kept more private.

Welcome to FR, here's hoping you'll stick it out. You'll find good conversations and good fun here, you have to be thick-skinned, tho.

But if you're playing us...we don't take too kindly to that stuff, here.

Sounds like you might have been lurking around here for a while.

The Miers nomination was tough on everyone involved. But all's well that ends well.

LOL, nobody to the right of the Nation crowd says this with a straight face!

And it is far from certain that those who have seized said levers are, in fact, conservative. Re-read the list of grievances that came out post-Miers.

Welcome anyway.

Nonsense. They'd build an organic nursery farm before an oil refinery. We can't drill in ANWR because of all the precious caribou. Apparently freedom from foreign oil dependence isn't as important as protecting some deer.

First you say we can't drill, and then you say we've achieved control of the levers of power.

Which is it?
