Conservatives Betrayed

For those who still think "Republican" means "Conservative," you need this book. The book is "Conservatives Betrayed." It talks about how Bush and the Republicans have completely betrayed conservatives and conservative ideas.

Jerome Corsi has written a review of the book if you want to find out more about it. And I don't have one yet, so if you're looking for a Christmas gift for the Ogre...

1 The next two years will be very interesting for the conservative movement. Thanks for the reminder.

2 Historically, it always takes a Republican defeat to result in conservative gains!

3 Politics, like everything else, runs in cycles. The Democrats are back in power because the economy is getting lousy and the war is going badly and the public interprets that as the fault of the party in power. After a few years, if the Democrats fail to improve the situation, whether it's their fault or not, the Republicans will once again become favorable.

Both parties do stupid things. When the stupid behavior of the party in power becomes intolerable, the faded memories of the other party's stupid behavior allows the voters to fantasize that a change is needed.

4 I have to take issue with one thing, Weapons: I am failing to see how the economy is getting lousy.

5 Indeed, have you seen the DOW recently?

6 I judge the state of the economy by what sort of pay scale a reasonably intelligent high school graduate could expect in today's job market. The Dow could be at a million dollars, but if you can't get a job that actually pays you enough to live on, who cares?

7 So an entry level job with no skill requirements should pay exactly how much? More than minimum wage, why? Just because you want it to, no matter what the free market would suggest?
