Conservative Norm Ornstein: The Media Ignore Republican Lunacy


Pro-Life Advocates Cause Abortion Rates To Soar. Pro-Abortion Advocates Cause It To Decline


Conservative think tanker, Norm Ornstein: "The media ignore the fact that Republican candidates have said simply crazy things. For example, Joni Ernst's espousal of several conspiracy theories has gone largely unreported. Embarrassing quirks like these are hard to fit into a coherent narrative about the election." 

 Alan: In the cluster of articles below, conservative think tanker Norm Ornstein expresses frustration that Republicans refuse to compromise. Republican Senator Vitter frequents prostitutes and Republican Senator Larry Craig solicits sexual favors in airport men's rooms. But the GOP -- as a political party (packed with theocrats mentally masturbating over Apocalypse fantasies) sees itself as "The Party Of Uncompromising Values." It is this pharisaic pose (whatever the underlying reality) that makes American conservatives categorically unable to compromise.

What Does It Mean That "The Party Of Family Values"
Has Elected A President Who Scandalizes Children

"The terrible thing about our time is precisely the ease with which theories can be put into practice.  The more perfect, the more idealistic the theories, the more dreadful is their realization.  We are at last beginning to rediscover what perhaps men knew better in very ancient times, in primitive times before utopias were thought of: that liberty is bound up with imperfection, and that limitations, imperfections, errors are not only unavoidable but also salutary. The best is not the ideal.  Where what is theoretically best is imposed on everyone as the norm, then there is no longer any room even to be good.  The best, imposed as a norm, becomes evil.” 
"Conjectures Of A Guilty Bystander," by Trappist monk, Father Thomas Merton
