“The tea party temperament is often accompanied by an easily reducible political theory. “The word ‘education,’ “ McDaniel has argued, “is not in the Constitution. Because the word is not in the Constitution, it’s none of their [the federal government’s] business.” Neither are the phrases “health care,” “retirement assistance,” “disaster relief,” “food safety” or “cancer research.” And there goes much of the modern state. “

Gerson is such a rube. MCDANIEL’S POINT IS THE FOUNDERS WOULD NOT APPROVE OF THE MODERN STATE!

Mark Levin has called out this jackass Gerson on a number of occasions. He’s a Karl Rove mini-me

LOL! Yeah as if they really want to help get more conservatives elected.

Most of the time when I hear them lecture, try to give advise when no one asked, I just dismiss it.

If theses Leftist Authoritarians were really winning... politically speaking, then they just let the Conservatives carry on with whatever they were saying/doing.

Yeah right as if they really wanted to help out the right wing. LOL! Just know when they say it, then keep doing it. You war winning and they are trying to shut you down.

"failed tea party Senate candidate Chris McDaniel"

Lefty boiler-plate.

One wonders if Reggie Love is teaching DC classes in Das ObamaSplootGeschlurping?

“A party that is genuinely excited about conservative anti-poverty proposals, the child tax credit and other reforms - rather than impeachment and the abolition of modern government - might even be judged worthy of the presidency.”

...Child tax credit and other reforms... Yawn.

The only people “genuinely excited” by that just passed out from having 4 glasses of wine at a DC cocktail party.

Shocked the PDS Brigade here hasn’t launched their volley yet. Of course most seem tied up on impeachhment threads not of the Palin variety opposing it there.

Very Good Observation Norm.

Strange how often the Liberal side is taken by many of the PDSer's.....
