It was Ronald Reagan who popularized the notion that the conservative movement rested on a fusionist “three-legged stool.”

That was very true when Reagan said it. That was the Conservative Movement that Buckley out together during the Cold War. The world kept going; National Review did not. I await their sure to be in the works “The Conservative Case for Transgenderism.”

I still adhere to the concept and articulate it when appropriate. The social conservatism leg is not going away and there is plenty of work there to do.

Already done. At least by one of their writers.

I went to the National Review forum in San Diego in 1993, during the first year of the Clinton Administration.

The opposition was highly cosmetic and full of neocons. Bill and Irving Krystol, David Horowitz, Michael Medved, Dennis Prager, Midge Decter. It was California/NY conservatism. Very elitist. Just like Buckley.

That magazine has been gone a long time.
