A rant about stupidity... and the coming civil war... (2009)
Context: This is not about classic left-vs-right anymore. (As if that metaphor ever held cogent meaning.) Not when every measure of national health that conservatives ought to care about — from budget balancing to small business startups, to military readiness, to States' Rights, to the economy, to individual liberty, to control over immigration at our borders — does vastly and demonstrably better under democrats.

To find out just how far they can push "culture war" toward a repeat of 1861.
