The fight on the right: Joe six pack Vs. the elites

No! I absolutely refuse to be sucked into watching another debate. It is going to be re-play of the first two. There is no way the MSM is going to let John McCain out of the box to talk about partial birth abortion, infanticide, gun rights, Billy Ayres, Fannie, Freddie, Rev Wright and socialism. And even if given the opportunity, I’m not sure John an honorable campaign means never criticizing your opponent McCain has it in him slap B-HO down. So, no I’m not watching. I’d rather be surprised reading about how good McCain was afterward than watch another train wreck live.

But that’s not what is bugging me this A.M. There is line of “conservative” pundits signing up for B-HO. National Review founder William F. Buckley’s son Christopher for example has endorsed B-HO. When I think of Chris Buckley now, I think of Ron Reagan Jr. without the ballet slippers. Ron Jr. had to find his “own” way. So, when the only way he could find to get noticed was trashing his old man’s ideals, that’s what he did. Way to go Chris. I’m sure WFB couldn’t be prouder.

Then there’s David Brooks “the” conservative on the NY Times OpEd page. Ever notice how when Libs want to get the conservative point of view they go out and get some pansy ass like Brooks or David Gergen? They never call up Mark Levin, Ann Coulter (who by the way has more testosterone than Brooks and Gergen combined) or any “real” conservative. Better to have Brooks lament Sarah Palin’s lack of experience and Ivy League education than to have Coulter point out that Palin has accomplished more in government and life than the two Dem Dopes combined – without an Ivy League education.

Kathleen Parker works for Pravda on the Potomac AKA the Washington Post. Parker is pissed at Palin for – get this – “getting a new hairdo and expensive clothes.” “That chick is prettier than me!” That is a perfectly good reason to vote B-HO and send the country over a socialist cliff. Way to stick up for those conservative principles you believe so deeply in Kathleen.

Peggy Noonan is a “conservative” at the Wall Street Journal. Noonan thinks that the fact that she can’t answer a yes or no question in less than 10,000 hand wringing words makes her look as if she’s the smartest person in the room. She told Laura Ingraham that she doesn’t know yet who she will vote for. Of course she couldn’t say it like that. It took Peggy 5 tortured minutes to finally spit it out. Idiot.

And for some odd reason the lefties are now throwing Christopher Hitchens in as a conservative. Aside from winning the war in Iraq and defeating radical Islam, there is not a single issue that Hitchens is conservative on.

These east coast, NY, Beltway “conservative” elites are more in tuned with B-HO. They are hedging their bets. No sense being booted off the elite cocktail circuit over conservative principle and a silly election. They could care less about us bitter-clingers in flyover America. They treat us with disdain and think that we are their intellectual and social inferiors. Well, I’d rather pal around with the Palin family any day than any of them. And I’m sure they prefer that I would.
