Message: Entry: A Paleo Epitaph Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/a_paleo_epitaph#22747 Post contents: The American conservative movement is virtually rudderless. Neocon is now a dirty word, and the movement will be forever tainted for lying America into the disastrous Iraq war. The Empire still believes in the neocons, but it too is a wounded, dying bull that just doesn’t know it's on its last legs. SOMETHING is going to step into this vacuum, and quite frankly the only movement that I can see that is both intelligent, principled and filled with a lot of pent-up energy is the paleocon-libertarian. Sure, the Obama-ites are having their moment, but let’s face it, they’re not adults, and the heady fumes that currently fuel them will burn out not long after Obama takes office because he really offers nothing new-- just more of the same sickening, sleazy left-liberalism that the Clintons embrace, only with a hip person-of-color edge. I like Obama, but there’s really nothing there, whereas the palecon-libertarians run deep with ideas, values, opinions and solutions. It’s only a matter of time. And there’s really nobody else of substance. Sent at: 2008 05 15
