The worst part of the neo-conservative/Tea Party/Fox News axis is the tar it casts upon those of us who think of ourselves as thinking conservatives. What this crowd is spouting is not what it means to be a conservative or even a Republican in 21st Century America.
It is time we recognized that there is a growing reactionary axis in American politics that is every bit as extreme and odious as their cohorts on the Left side of the dial, and adjust our collective mental spectra accordingly. And for those of you who feel the same, how about we start staking out some intelligent ideological turf so as to distance ourselves from the reactionary right?
