Has his shtick degenerated simply to a game of *traits I abhor belong to groups I scorn/traits I admire belong to my group* updated yearly?

You're also right about the awfulness of the Tuesday Brooks, giving it the full treatment would just be bad for your health. But I thought it was worth a <a href="http://yastreblyansky.blogspot.com/2014/06/trust-me.html" rel="nofollow">shorter</a>. I also learned last week why they love Oakeshott; because he, like Sully, apparently thought it was stupid and even <a href="http://yastreblyansky.blogspot.com/2014/06/cheap-shot-michael-oakeshott.html" rel="nofollow">philosophically incorrect</a> to make an attempt to live according to moral principles.Yastreblyanskyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08335868257729063363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11363027.post-77226968325004203552014-07-02T07:21:39.557-05:002014-07-02T07:21:39.557-05:00I suppose it was inevitable that the Dementors wou...I suppose it was inevitable that the Dementors would turn on each other.<br /> Brooks is such a whiny butthole he makes a perfect target for the knuckle draggers.<br />"He's over at that commie Jew York Timess smoking pot with DFWs!"<br />Sullivan is a shit nosed asswipe, but that's not a secret.Dannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11363027.post-81521759592053663742014-07-02T06:39:13.984-05:002014-07-02T06:39:13.984-05:00When I read the part about only conservatism can r...When I read the part about only conservatism can rise to the challenge of governance I laughed out loud.
