“Plaeoconservative” WOW had to look that one up.

“Paleoconservative is a term that describes an academic or scholarly conservative who emphasizes religious heritage, national and Western identity, tradition, civil society and classical federalism, the importance of demographics, and an anti-interventionist policy of Robert Taft. Paleoconservatives oppose immigration, communism, authoritarianism, social democracy and entitlement programs. The most prominent figure is TV commentator and author Pat Buchanan.”

BTW- Pat is a fruit cake, which is not good for your handle.

That is not a correct definition of paleoconservatism. Whoever wrote it was slanted, or lazy- minded. Paleos are not against war, or for isolationism like Pat. W.F. Buckley called himself a Paleo, but differed from others regarding the legalization drugs.
