Me too. Although I did stoop to 'nihilist' today... ;-)
"They are pushing for an 'ignore' button...after all, their vision of FR is to make it a pep rally, instead of what it has always been; a place to promote conservative ideals."
Well,there's a fine example of a conservative ideal,
does it come with a 'buddy list',too?
Oh,I see there are many options,that's nice...so,when does this new version of chatty kathy's clique wars launch? Not that there's anything wrong with that.< /sarc>
SHEEESH, blackie...acknowledging that conservatism is getting the short shrift from a man we worked sooooo hard to get into power does not make one a "sniveler." Seems to me, Dubyuh's willingness to enact the Left's Agenda for the last nine months has solidified his "Compassionate" bona fides, how 'bout we concentrate our time between now and November proving Bush's "Conservatism"?!
FReegards...MUD
Two complete different terms.
"Moderate" implies that there is some thought process involved, faulty as it may be.
It's so easy to pontificate when you're never been in a position to have to do anything at all.
GWB Is The Man !!
Freedom Is Worth Fighting For !!

I'm sorry, but that's a cheap shot.
Conservative discuss issues on the merits of the issues and what's best for the country as far as they can see it. To trash them like that is just unfair.
In foreign policy, Reagan accomplished the evisceration of the great Communist threat. He was the architect of the peace we have enjoyed, and the main reason why we don't wonder any more if we'll be crisped in our sleep by incoming Soviet warheads.
In domestic policy, Reagan sounded a number of themes like welfare reform that have come to pass thanks to the efforts, not of the self-satisfied Bush/Rockefeller/white-shoe Wall Street Wing of the GOP, but of conservative Congressional strivers like Newt Gingrich and the Class of '94 that forced the pen of the Great Defiler to sign a welfare-reform bill such as Reagan was vilified for envisioning. Reagan had to compromise with the opposition on occasion -- but he didn't compromise himself first, which is what business-wing Republicans always do. In fact, they have a mentality that is pre-compromised, and the Democrats always know to discount their every position and initiative, because in political bargaining, they're basically a bunch of chumps even when they do care!
Such IGNORANT comments are beneath you, Duke...MUD
We seem to read off the same page on this subject!
Very well reasoned. Bump for common sense.
We're not talking about conservatives. We're talking about EXTREME right wingers. You know, the two percenters.

I knew I'd eventually be on the list.
Of course we are. We all are.
