And saying that it's better to pursue change by persuading the majority that change is desirable, and shouldn't be "rammed down people's throats", to use the currently-fashionable rightwing catchphrase (apparently replacing "tea bag the White House" while maintaining thematic consistency).
And of course you call that "socialism".
You've left me a bit confused here regarding where you think TPN fits in to the "broader conservative movement". Maybe we should examine the very concept of a "broader conservative movement".
If all the media, left right and neutral, and all of the blogospheres, are portraying the tea party movement as the new "heart" of conservatism, could they all be lying?
Or is it just possible that you no longer represent the "broader conservative movement"?
You seem to be having increasing difficulty trying to square that circle. You sense, correctly, that they're loons, and try to keep your distance...which would seem to be a distance from the new mainstream.
Have you become irrelevant, Tom? Did you leave conservatism, or did it leave you?
