>>>Woods appears to claim Herbert Hoover as a conservative when he was POTUS. That is patently absurd. Likewise, regarding Ron Paul as a conservative is simply absurd.<<<
If you believe that, I suspect you are not a conservative. Well, you might be one of these new-fangled “conservatives: along the lines of David Brooks, but certainly not a traditional conservative.
Like the paleosurrenderman, David Brooks is no fan of, well frankly, WAR. Brooks is a weak-kneed, lily-livered liberal with not a shred of conservative principle to his name. He must be as thrilled by El Run as he was by the crease in Obama's pants. He undoubtedly agrees with Ru Paul that the SCOTUS created "right" to slice, dice and hamburgerize innocent babies and the judicially created "right" of Adam to marry Bruce should not be stopped in their tracks and that, in a nation which witnesses calmly federal: traffic control, housing schemes, nursing scholarships (sponsored by El Run), shrimpin' subsidies (ditto), Galveston choo choo subsidies for public transportation (ditto) and a lot more that mnehring can reference for you if he chooses, the paleopeacenut has no more important use for the long-ignored 10th Amendment (see the New Deal, the Fair Deal, the New Frontier, most of what Nixon and Ford did, and Obozo's Raw Deal) than to prevent the fedgov from undoing the evils perpetrated by its own court system by way of babykilling and rumpranging posing as "marriage."
If you think paleoPaulie is a conservative and not just an effectively leftist (on many issues) lying social revolutionary surrendermonkey, how many moons are there in the sky of your home planet? Ron Paul is in the same category as Cynthia McKinney as a political crackpot and, like her, he will be permanently out of office. That is a promise by those of us who are ACTUALLY CONSERVATIVE.
