Jonah is right,

Revere the leaders of the past and pay proper homage to them. But don’t opine for the old days. March on and move forward!!

As someone who has embraced conservatism for 50 years I do miss the likes of Russell Kirk, James Burnham, Bill Buckley and Milton Friedman. If we have conservative intellectuals such as these today they must be hiding somewhere. I believe, unfortunately, that conservatism has evolved into a political movement and no longer sees itself as an ideological one.

We need both political movement conservatives and ideological/intellectual conservatives working in unison to turn this country from the destructive course it is on. We need a reuniting of the social conservatives and the fiscal conservatives for the common goal of taking back our country. Will it happen? Nobody knows...
