Rod Dreher – CPAC is ‘white kids on dope’

When somebody as conservative as Mr. Crunchy Con, current Dallas Morning News and former New York Post editorial columnist Rod Dreher, makes a comment like that about this past week’s Conservative Political Action Committee confab, you know it’s bad.

Dreher goes beyond that.

He says that the Big Fat Idiot, Rush Limbaugh, is not a conservative, does not understand the philosophical foundations of modern American conservativism and more.

Well, half right there, Rod.

One doesn’t have to be a social conservative to be a conservative, totally refuting your religious-driven belief that conservatives believe in “fallen human nature.” Which gives irony, at least, if not hypocrisy at most, to this Dreher rhetorical question:
Do they really believe politics is dogmatic religion?

You gonna dig up Barry Goldwater and tell him he wasn’t a conservative?
