Where in the right tit of Odin did you ever get the utterly mistaken impression that John McCain is 'conservative', or that anyone here says he is???!?

That's a good question. I've seen this same comment about "conservatives" (always in quotes, donchaknow) on a few threads in the past couple days. It appears that the same people making those comments seem to think that the 13 Senators who have signed on to conduct this filibuster are elected members of the Libertarian party.

It's getting weird.

What I’m poking at is the habit of the die-hard social conservatives dismissing anyone who doesn’t toe the thump-the-book line of legislation as a “libertarian” and say “Not in MY Party!”

So far, what I’ve seen out of Rand Paul, Ted Cruz and Mike Lee is very encouraging. The “Old Guard” GOP has reason to be scared crapless. The Old Farts have gone along to get along all these years, delivering nothing but larger and larger government in every session of Congress. Now there are some kids who are threatening that there might actually be some WORK involved in serving in the US Senate.
