Conservatives practice situational constitutionalism, favoring what Healy calls "Caesaropapism" as long as the Caesar-cum-Pope wields his anti constitutional powers in the service of things these faux conservatives favor.

OK, whatever.

Funny thing is, it struck me how much of a system of faith "libertarianism" is.

The conservative ideal to have a president be someone who understands and reveres the Almighty and America's place in His order is not at all the same thing that leftists seek when they build a cult around someone in order to hook the masses by blind emotionalism in order to harness their passing fancies.

God, we're drowning in an ocean of bad ideas and misperceptions.

I've never seen anybody both exalt and decry the principles of liberteranisn in so few words.

Congratulations.
