Has Right Wing Media Destroyed Common Sense Intelligent Conservatism Forever?

Drs:

By appealing to the lowest part of human nature has common sense and intellectual conservativism been killed,?

In Canada and England the Sun newspaper tends to be right but they are both tabloids that feature pictures of a girl either topless or in skimpy clothing. In Canada the paper is full of ads for escorts and massage parlours.

Talk radio and FNC is all about hate of Democrats.

Now you have people insisting Trump is a Conservative and his only credentials was being a birther.

Here in Ontario we had common sense conservatives running who were smart and honest with the voters and instead the people elect a former talk radio show host and brother of the former crack smoking mayor of Toronto.

What hope is there?

A question I’ll never get an answer too…

Could you give me an example of intelligent conservatism? …

Thus blowing away the whole thread…lol

Drs:

look at things that were at one time conservative ideas that are now getting trashed

Carbon pricing was at one time a conservative solution for reducing greenhouse gases.

Are you sure you are not confusing crony capitalism with modern day conservative constitutionalism and federalism?

Bigjohn:

Thats BS. Please explain why? If so called Social Conservative could then why not a decent fiscal Conservative

Is it? Ok if you say so.

Bill Kristol and David Frum are two guys who liberals do not always see eye too eye with but are viewed as intell6.

Drs · 2018-09-24T17:00:31.610Z

Intelligent.

Carbon pricing is not crony capitalism. Infact as it was being done here it was fair.

Short term investments and tax breaks for companies and individuals to to invest in making changes. Then a plan to give rebates to those who do to income were hurt by carbon pricing.

Jut making the rich richer, and the poor poorer… for no reason at all…

Making the rich richer makes everyone else richer too because the rich pay people to do jobs and stuff.

Duh.

Practically none. The insane wing of the right is very active even in canada.

Bomberfox · 2018-09-25T19:27:56.073Z

Then again people like John Bolten were being seriously considered long before the Trump admin.

Oh Ontario is going to pay for Ford’s stupidity and Faith Goldy who some here loved is trying to get elected mayor.

Some argue that 40 years of a Democratically controlled congress (54-94) caused a desperate Republican Party to reach out and include religious, values, and fringe voters for whom traditional conservatism was of little importance.

Bomberfox · 2018-09-25T23:36:56.545Z

Seriously? Faith goldy? Its worse than i thought.

Drs · 2018-09-26T01:14:44.425Z

She showed up at the last debate and the police escorted her out.

Drs · 2018-09-26T21:29:49.221Z

Apparently Guiliani loves his some Faith Goldy too.

Rudy Giuliani Photographed With White Nationalist Mayoral Candidate

Faith Goldy’s mayoral bid has garnered little support. But it has earned her some controversial photo ops.

Leftists have destroyed liberal idealism and rightists have destroyed intellectual conservatism. Both have been replaced by raving mobs of lunatics.

Leftism killed 100 million people last century… I think they are hoping to repeat that.

Sorry but people kill people.
