Biting the Invisible Hand That Feeds
Newt Gingrich's attacks on Mitt Romney's record at Bain Capital reveal further evidence of at least two things that should be obvious by now, but which remain unclear to many Republicans. The first is that Gingrich's instincts are completely anti-conservative at their core. The second, which is more ominous, is that so many who wish to see themselves as conservatives – or even libertarians – have in fact accepted a basic moral premise of leftism, leaving them unable to present a consistent moral position against the Left, and thus leaving the Western world in an inexorable leftward drift, regardless of which party wins any given election.- Wednesday, January 11, 2012
