“It is just a generic quote that anyone could say, and even mean, it isn’t conservative or liberal or anything.”
The context mattered, and the audience. At least it seemed so to me, that’s why I mentioned it - as the isolated statement.
Do you really think liberals want to encourage people to defend their liberties? I don’t. Maybe some time in the past, but not now. That is a quaint conservative notion.
We both know what the main thrust of that article and his recent positioning is.
In typical libertarian fashion, you have some politics that you are dying to spit out, but instead you just keep repeating yourself and arguing while not saying anything.
Do I think that libertarians use the word “liberty” to advance liberalism and to conceal/soften the language of support for issues like the gay agenda? I sure do.
If they aren’t telling conservatives to embrace gay marriage for the founding fathers and liberty, then they are telling us to do it for God, but they are always pushing the libertarian position on homosexuals.
The “context” is that he is telling the California GOP, that destroyed itself by being social liberals, to move even more left.
Do you think his summary is of a speech that was about the California GOP becoming more conservative, more like Texas, or one calling on them to move left, to “a more tolerant view of American politics”?
“”More conservatives need to proudly stand up and protect the Bill of Rights.
I am certain the influential writers at Breitbart California will stand with me and continue to introduce a more tolerant view of American politics and a view that will attract new members to our movement.””
