Those who have hijacked the meaning of conservatism and screwed up the Republican brand, like most GOP primary voters these days. That base: "an excitable, overlapping assortment of Fox News friends, Limbaugh dittoheads, Tea Party animals, war whoopers, nativists,
Christianist fundamentalists, à la
carte Catholics (anti-abortion, yes; anti-torture, no), anti-Rooseveltians (Franklin and Theodore), global-warming denialists, post-Confederate white Southrons, creationists,
birthers, market idolaters, Europe demonizers, and gun fetishists."
Example:
If you are Liberal or
Progressive, don't forget to spring ahead
1 hour tonight. If you are Regressive,
forget it. You folks have fallen so far behind that 1 hour won't make much difference.
