If Buchanan and that "Libertarian" guy were conservatives, Mr. Robinson, I'd see your point. But as it is...

So you are the defining authority now? Well, in respect to the request that we not trash one another, I will let that go. But why can't you simply discipline yourself to discuss the particular idea to which you take exception, in an appropriate thread, without engaging in the ad hominen attack? Both Bucahnan and Browne give their reasons for their stated views. You do not feel that you can argue for or against those reasons without trying to besmirch the man?

I wish you could step back and see how this nasty backbiting against reasoning men, over differences on isolated issues, diminishes the appeal of Conservatism to the vast, really uncommitted legions of the poorly informed, general citizenry.
