    Political conservatism was actually moored to conservatism writ broadly, and was intellectually and philosophically coherent in 1980.

    Rush helped to change that.

    Missed by the right wing's rabble. No one else.

    Dazzler's "coherent" Conservatism is a Conservatism that supports Socialized Medicine, increasing taxes, and voting for Obama. That's Dazzler's "coherent" Conservatism. The Dazzler believes that since he doesn't support trannies competing against girls in sports, even though he votes for people who do, that qualifies him as a "coherent" conservative.

    Quite the "conservative".

    "The Gentle Giant was shot in the back while running away" and "Obama is the most fiscally responsible alternative therefore I'll vote for him." Quite the "Conservative."

    Your sophomoric hypocrisy is duly noted. You voted for a rat who was 2nd in command of an administration that wire tapped a Presidential campaign HQ and a party that made up lies about Russians stealing the election for Trump. Your rat buddies even had the balls to try to impeach by special prosecuting Trump on those pack of lies. The history of rat leaders complaining about stolen elections goes back to the 80's and has been a central theme each and every time your rat buddies have lost an election.

    You are a gigantic dishonest hypocrite HH. Your dishonesty and hypocrisy have risen to a ridiculous level.

    One less fascist.

    And right on time, the human scum come crawling out from under their rock.

    Nobody with an ounce of intelligence has ever believed that "small government" is a realistic or a worthy objective. - HHutzky

    Other than the guy H claims to have voted for twice in the 80's

    Do you consider social media writ? How was Rush's spoken opinions on subjects like small government different than intellectual prose on the same subject in 1980?
    Nobody with an ounce of intelligence has ever believed that "small government" is a realistic or a worthy objective. It's not an intellectually honest pursuit and neither political party has ever pursued it, regardless of what they said during a campaign. It's a fantasy. And all most of you ever mean by it is you want the government to do stuff you like, but not stuff you don't like.

    Small government is at best a rhetorical flourish required to pander to the stupidest voter a Republican can hope to convince to pull the lever for him come election time.
    Interesting intellectual take from a mentally tortured individual. I'm sorry your intellect cannot comprehend the infinite applications of such a simple word as small.

    Rush briefly had a TV show but dropped it when the knives came out. On radio he didn't have to give a shit. He spawned the now decades long obsession with the Fairness Doctrine and Air America and other liberal failures to compete with him

    Then a drumbeat of smears over the years and of course Obama being obsessed with him because he was one of the few who didn't bend the knee.

    I think "small government" should be replaced with "limited government". Government will never be small, but it should be limited when it can be. Look at what the government red tape did in regards to the PNW forest fires. These fires grew in large part to the restricted timber laws that Oregon and Washington passed. Had logging companies been able to thin over grown forest areas, it would have slowed the spread and saved millions of forest acres.

    Remember when the dazzler used to post about the great success of Air America? Good times.

    As if Ronald Reagan ever did anything to shrink government at any level.

    He was an adept politician. He paid lip service to lots of things. Unfortunately, in a Western democracy, it is crucial to capture some reasonable share of the gullible vote.

    I had a summer jerb in college that had me driving around a lot for a couple years. I listened to Rush, and a whole raft of other talk shows, then, but never really since. Not my bag.

    Nobody with an ounce of intelligence has ever believed The Dazzler actually practices law either.

    I didn't know Snerdly was a real person, much less a black guy, until Race poasted something relatively recently.

    If any of you "remember" that, do get in to see your doctor.
