There are a lot of "knee-jerk opiners" on FR who need to be the first to respond even though they haven't bothered to look for facts or put on their thinking caps. Many use twisted "logic" instead of reasoned thinking. Trying to get into a debate with them usually ends up with them calling you names while they refuse to tell you why they are right and you are wrong. I't disturbing, considering that FR is supposed to be trying to champion Conservatism, that so many display a marked inability to do more than quip and say, "You're wrong and a Democrat plant" when one questions them.
They're one element of it. If they don't get defensive and resort to name calling, I'm okay with them. As they become more informed and more cynical, they begin to understand constitutional conservatives.
The other group is those who have highjacked the conservative movement and much of the "tea party" to mean no taxes, wars all over the world to spread global elitist control, and unrestrained profit, often through dirty deals with the federal government. In the Bundy case a lot of the "conservatives" are on the side of the gov making deals with the connected at the expense of US citizens, our livelihood, and states rights. They loved the Bundy false labels, and jumped on them as an excuse to abandon Bundy's cause....they had to know it was coming, to abandon the grazing rights issue so quickly.
