Freedom to Threaten

Who is fanning the flames of hatred? Also: The politics of short-term screaming. Terrorists and conventional considerations. NAMBLA and the return of Harry Hay — an exchange. Plus more.

(Page 3 of 11)

Kate Shaw br> Toronto, Canada /p> p> If you want to call the present administration “Conservative,” you might look at a few opinions from others who have more of a claim to that title. Senator Warner and James Baker seem not to echo the same “good news” about our foreign policy. Do any of you ever consider that the Conservative element in our nation’s politics and life are presently being held hostage to an administration which is considerably more lame than any duck? Why do those who think themselves Conservatives feel it imperative to be loyal to a right-wing cabal which has hijacked the White House? br> — H.J. Wilson /p>

Contrary to Marc Anthony and his famous speech, I come to praise Mr. Lord, not to bury him. I am very afraid that we will not see another as wise and as strong as Mr. Reagan in my lifetime.

I find it so very instructive that Mr. Reagan never deviated from Conservative principles in any way in his pronouncements. He was reviled by the press and Democrats and RINOs. All he did was to get that serious look on his face and say, “There you go again.” But always with the twinkle in the eyes.

p>Oh how I wish that the Bush clan had the constancy of Ronald Reagan. Oh how I wish that the GOP elected officials and activists had the ironclad belief in conservatism that Ronald Reagan had. How I wish that “our side” would worry more about principles and less about being PC and whether the other side loved them. Conservative principles win every time they are tried, and I am NOT referring to “Compassionate Conservatism” which is just left leaning centrism by another name. br> — Ken Shreve br> A Proud Reagan Conservative /p> p>
