Goldberg is a conservative like Jeffery Dahmer was a haute chef.
Jonah Goldberg - but I liked losing so much!
This guy is a true idiot, in the classical sense of the word.
It was Ronald Reagan who popularized the notion that the conservative movement rested on a fusionist “three-legged stool.”
That was very true when Reagan said it. That was the Conservative Movement that Buckley out together during the Cold War. The world kept going; National Review did not. I await their sure to be in the works “The Conservative Case for Transgenderism.”
Conservatives should never win, because then we’ll lose.
We have to just keep losing instead.
Jonah gets it wrong…again
But will earnestly impress Bill Kristol, and other never-Trumper Republican party goers in the Hamptons over the long holiday weekend
I present this as Exhibit A as to why the Republican apparatus is not happy about overturning Roe.
Anybody hear G W MORON come out of the woodwork to praise the overturn of Roe v. Wade? Or does he only come out to bash Trump? “He hurt Jeb’s feelings!”
Roe v. Wade was used by RINOs to get your votes and your money for decades, and now the RINOs are not happy for your success in ending this mass murder.
Bush family was happy to nominate 1 conservative / moderate for every liberal like Souter they put on the Court. That way they could keep their base happy and not have to worry about making any actual progress on overturning Roe.
Anyone who doesn’t support Trump in 2024 is an absolute fool!
Truly amazing when these watershed moments happen, how many so-called “conservatives” out themselves as nothing more than low-IQ “journalists”. This happened with Trumps election, faxu impeachments, COVID, Jan 6th unselect committee, etc...
As if the culture war is over,
Continues his return to his previous socialist life!
I think most of the pro-abortion libertarians have already left the Republicans (did so around the fall of the Berlin Wall).
Just another squishy neo-con attempting to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. They truly are a miserable and self-loathing lot.
This article is a complete waste of the pixels and bytes used to create it. Typical Goldberg: narcissistic pontificating to come to an underwhelming pointless conclusion.
People like this don’t get it. They think that reversing Roe v Wade ends conservatism. Just the opposite, it ends polarization of Government at least at the SCOTUS level. Now it’s a State problem, a Representative state problem, for people to make decisions about locally. Roe v Wade divided the country, not on abortion, but on the powers of Federal Government and corrupt Federal government versus the voters. Let the people decide, that’s democracy.
No surprise why even the National Review dumped Jonah
“It was Ronald Reagan who popularized the notion that the conservative movement rested on a fusionist “three-legged stool.” In theory, the three legs were free market economics, national defense and social conservatism. In practice, free market economics meant low taxes and pro-business policies. National defense meant anticommunism and, briefly, the war on terror. Social conservatism covered a lot of territory but the enduring core was opposition to Roe and abortion.”
An over-simplification froma simple mind.
Go away, Goldberg.
Jonah has perfected the art of writing stool.
“ Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Florida, hailed the court’s decision. “But,” he added, “we must not only continue to take steps to protect the unborn, we must also do more to support mothers and their babies.” He promised to “soon introduce a bill to ensure we do everything we can to give every child the opportunity to fully access the promise of America.”
I’m guessing Rubio wants to fund some new program by the same federal government bankrupted by similar socialist programs.
Jonah Goldberg, one more reason I fled from the conservative movement like my hair was on fire.
Jonah,
What does it profit if a man gains the whole world and loses his soul?
You prefer “winning” politically over stopping the bloodshed and carnage of abortion? Ripping the limbs off of the unborn?
Indeed, you and your ilk have lost your souls.
