That's a fair criticism and I would agree with it but for the fact that so many of the Republicans you mention call themselves conservative and in fact believe themselves to be conservatives. Take for example all the totally baseless and completely unsubstantiated criticism of Goldman listed above.

With an increasingly few individual exceptions (all of whom are as upset about what's happened here in the last year or so as I am) I stand by this assessment:

This forum has turned into the worst kind of caricature of conservatism. These days it's just a collection of people who don't know what they're talking about, posting lies about people they've never met, and demanding that they be strung up for crimes then never committed, because they read a story that they didn't understand.

Well put.
