If by "current" Mr. Sullivan means "Conservatism as it has existed in America since before I was in long pants" then, sure, why not."The current GOP is a threat to this country’s economy, social order and cultural moderation. There is nothing even faintly conservative about their contempt for democratic institutions or their refusal to behave as anything but political vandals."
-- Andrew Sullivan, July 25, 2013
I note that Mr. Sullivan still hasn't learned to form his mouth to shape the word "Liberal" in any way that is not dripping with contempt.
Well, whether he ever finds the guts to apologize to his betters, the devil baby he helped sire is a full grown monster now, and it's coming for all of us.
Obviously the only viable solution is to squat in the highest branches of the tallest trees and bitch about how equally awful both sides are as, far below, Conservatism tramples the poor, the weak, the sick, the aged, the outcast and the dispossessed into penury and misery and early graves.

Driftglass,
I'm sure Sullivan would be happy to explain to you that the Liberals were wrong because Good Conservatives became confused by reacting *to* Liberalism.
As you have said, it's not that conservatism is wrong. It's that conservatism has to roll back the crazy to the point that they would still write him checks.
