“Apparently not any longer... and I’m beginning to wonder how many Conservatives are left on FR.”
Judging by how many would vote for a lib with an R to keep out a lib with a D....I dunno.
These kind of compromisers must believe that it is entirely possible to, without dirtying oneself, pick up a turd by the “clean end.”
Without compromise politics does not exist.
Was Ronald Reagan a compromiser when he picked Richard Schweiker as his running mate in '76? How about when he chose GHW Bush as his running mate in '80? How about when he supported Bush for president in '88?
You folks who refuse to understand the nature of real conservative politics have gotten on my last nerve. Grow up.

These liberals have been polishing turds on FR for months!

Great line, and you're absolutely correct. Who cares how McCain thinks on the WOT when he opposes harsh questioning of WOT prisoners, wants to close Gitmo and give the prisoners Constitutional protections, and wants to leave the border wide open so any terrorist can walk right in.
While the Fairness Doctrine return would be a huge problem, I have to think we could defeat it like we defeated the shamnesty bill last year by mass action.
