Kathleen Parker is at it again. She calls the Bush years eight years of "conservatism"?!? Aside from some tax cuts and some great judges, there wasn't a whole lot of conservatism there.

Kathleen is mad that an Alaskan “hick” is the new voice of the party. Ronald Reagan who these elites used and sponged off of, was a movie star.

She has swallowed the narrative from her Washington Post colleagues - the Republicans have been taken over by “extremists” and “kooks.”
I wrote to her and asked - exactly who are the “kooks?”
exactly what extremist positions are the Republicans now espousing? What conservative values have been abandoned?
I sense the Obama love-fest in DC has become too much for her to resist.

It’s annoying to be lectured by someone about conservatism’s failures by someone who does not fundamentally understand what conservatism is. Parker is a tool.

Christopher Buckley is one of the Manhattan Nobu “conservatives” who Kathleen Parker thinks is a real conservative because she's a Manhattan Nobu conservative herself.
These people do not have beliefs and principals. They have attitudes and nuanced positions.
Just like their new hero, Barry Soetero. He's the cool black friend they always secretly wished they could have.

Actually, Katty, WFB is probably turning in his grave.
The dork of a son said Rush is from the Sanhedrin wing of the party. WFB admired Rush and called him the leader of the conservative movement.

Either Kathleen Parker is a fool or a liar. The expansion of the national debt, the exploding entitlement programs, the unpopular wars, weren't the result of the GOP pandering to the people she calls “kooks”. They were the result of “compassionate conservatism” and pandering to the elite Neocons in NYC and DC. The “kooks” to which she refers opposed all those big government expansions and many of them opposed the Iraq War.
The mess the GOP is in is precisely the result of following the advice of halfwits like Parker. Does she think the “far right” are responsible for the No Child Left Behind Act, the prescription drug bill, the Iraq War, and the Wall Street bailout? I would submit that Kathleen would have a pretty damn hard time making that case. That bimbo must be suffering from delusions of adequacy. My guess is that her phone has been ringing off the hook with calls from MSM and Hollywood types praising her for her “insights” about Palin, and stoking her obviously overblown ego. She'll end up like Arianna Huffington, I suppose. Well, good riddance, toots, you were an affirmative action hire in the first place, so your departure will be no great loss.

How is voting for a Democrat adminstration that promises Socialism because you object to an outgoing Republican administration that spent like a Democrat one logical?
At the risk of invoking the dangerous "Hitler Analogy" I am reminding of Hitler's ordering the destruction of Germany when the war was lost because he decided the nation had "failed" him. Man, I don't want to be loved by these kinds of people.

The increasingly irrelevant, soporific, and downright silly Kathleen Parker's latest homage to clueless irony.

Exactly. It isn’t conservatism that brought us to this point it is the RINO party.

Parker writes this:
Years of pandering to the extreme wing the kooks
But then she writes this:
eight years of conservatism have brought us a doubled national debt, ruinous expansion of entitlement programs, bridges to nowhere, poster boy Jack Abramoff and an ill-premised, ill-waged war conducted by politicians of breathtaking arrogance.
Ergo, the "kooks" brought us the abandonment of conservatism? Parker's lost in her nincompoopery. To hell with NR.

“Christopher Buckley, ever the swashbuckling heir to his fathers defiant spirit, walked the plank so that the sinking mother ship might right itself. No doubt his seafaring father is cheering from heaven: ‘Ahoy there, Christo! Well done, my son!’” If Christopher Buckley wants to make a point about how the Republican Party is betraying its ideals, why isn't CB voting Libertarian? As for KP’s assertion that WFB is, from Heaven, cheering CB’s decision, that's nuts. Voting for Obama, as opposed to Bob Barr, because you think McCain isn't conservative enough is illogical, and WFB was not illogical.

It's time to pull the plug on Kathleen Parker. Liberals given column space on conservative 'blogs aren't pioneering conservatives, they're just disruptors.
Lincoln once famously asked, "If we call a horses' tail a leg, how many legs does a horse have?" A perplexed Secretary replied, "Five?" "No," Lincoln replied, "Just four. Saying a horse's leg is a tail doesn't make it one."
Kathleen Parker is not a conservative. Saying she is a conservative doesn't make her one; she's just another horse's tail.
