[ed. note: a number of you have written requesting I invite T. Coddington Van Voorhees VII back for another analysis of the sad state of the conservative movement. After some cajoling and a bottle of VSOP, he agreed.]

I know I’m going to get flamed for this but ‘moderates’ are the key. I don’t what they are, how they can be so oblivious, etc. But they sure as hell sent this country on the most destructive course conceivable.
Still discussion worthy or you wouldn’t have posted it.
Heh. I loved his prior rip — largely aimed, IMO, at the likes of Christopher Buckley — and will go read this one eagerly.
Absolutely brilliant!!!
Great piece.
Good show, old man.
Cruelly hilarious.
