If you have a moment either during or after the Super Bowl, I encourage you to read what I consider to be a profound commentary by THE ANCHORESS.

She eloquently articulates what I has been bothering me for the last 2 years about so many self-described CONSERVATIVES (particularly those on radio and at FR).

These so-called conservatives have elevated a political ideology to the level of RELIGION, which is why so many of them despise the social conservatives in the Republican Party. After all, most social conservatives subordinate their political ideology to the TRUE religion of Christianity (and Judaism, et al); those who worship at the alter of MOVEMENT conservatism do not. [This is also why they so despise/disparage President Bush, a president who has made his priorities clear from day one: He is a Christian first, a president (of all the people) second, and a Republican with a conservative world view third .. . This is APOSTASY for the conservative zealots who insist that their POPE (and in some cases, ‘god’), Ronald Reagan, would never have behaved this way — when, of course, he did!]

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

BTW: I agree with the ANCHORESS’ last statement in a companion commentary:

“All I know is this: I’m already missing George W. Bush.”
