Their obsessive quest to demonstrate using simple, short, wrong sentences that the last four decades were something entirely other than they actually were never ends.
The 60s vs The 70s A reader proposes a new definition for liberals and conservatives:I just had a revelation that may seem obvious, but I think I now really understand the difference between liberals and conservatives. The former perpetually live in the 1960s...while the latter live perpetually in the 1970s...
How can we move both groups into the 1980s and 1990s, when both sides accepted a lot of what was right about what the other side had to say?
...
Another fucking Centrist whose "Eureka! Maybe if both sides just compromise more!" moment of flawless reasoning is ruined only by inconvenient reality.
“...they turned to prayer, beseeching
that the sin which had been committed
might be wholly blotted out.”-- 2 Maccabees. 12:42
With the Conservative Expats, this obsession with burying the last 40 years under a mountain of false equivalences really has becomes a first order form of derangement.
So let's keep putting them on teevee shall we!

Thank you DG, for posting this, and thank you Bill, for calling "BS" on Frum's "Jewish Cabal bigotry" meme excuse for the righteous anger and distrust of PNAC and company. What utter nonsense.
Americans are used to just erasing vast swathes of our unsavory History from their memories,and textbooks. I suspect conservatives really do NOT remember their actions in the last 30 years. To them it was The Indians (liberals/Dems) who attacked and tried to destroy Them. The fascist country they created was just Self Defense from the Savages.
I had my own epitome this past week. Which is that America won't assert itself again as a world power until the greedy yuppie fucks who came of age during the "Me first & I don't need to give a damn about anyone else" 80s startdying off.
calickizzle: Unless you were employing a malapropism, I think you meant "epiphany" rather than "epitome".
