Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dumb were a couple of whacked out fantasy idiots that only Alice could see during one of her drug fueled nightmares....

So you went out and asked Alice after all.

Well.. she had nice tits, so........ yeah.....

[Renauda]

That was graceful and slick of you.

[Larry]

She had nice tits too for a while there... but it got to the point where you'd need some of whatever Alice was sniffing to .....,.

Never mind...

Boris Johnson isn't an American.

Oddly enough, he was until 2016.

I know you can't define "real conservativism", but I feel naming an example might be within your capabilities.

Nor can you. But at least I have an idea as to what is real conservatism which is more than you can you say as a person who refuses to cast your vote in federal elections. A true conservative would exercise his or her constitutional right to vote regardless of whether or not their choice could be elected to office.

In case you missed it then: Please refer to my response to TG back in November on this question:

As for real living American conservatives, permit me to add three additional names:

Mitt Romney, Liz Cheney and Jon Huntsman Jr.

While I don't agree with their politics and could not vote for either if I were a US citizen, I can at least respect their commitment to integrity. I felt the same way about the late John McCain and a host of other Republicans no longer around. Scary isn't it?

Renauda has a principled Full Stop stance against respect for the opinions of those who didn't vote. Duly noted.

Renauda has a lot of Full Stop principled stances. I'll bet not a single one of them is interesting, or worth discussing.

So you don't like to define political labels, and you know a book where someone wrote about them. Duly noted.

Dude, seriously, let it go. He's easily one of the most interesting people who post here.

I was talking about his sanctimonious Full Stop mode. I'm sure he's interesting in many other modes. But when he's irritated at self-identified conservatives on TNCR, and wants to troll them, he regresses to thoughtless sanctimony.

[Doctor Phibes]

If we're not allowed to troll American conservatives, what are they good for?

[Catseye3]

He's not trolling; he's responding.

[Horace]

I’m glad we’ve had this opportunity to reinforce our TNCR coalitions.

[Mik]

This is still some pretty tame kerfuffle by TNCR historical standards.

But I will confess that I'm more of a William Buckley conservative than a Donald Trump one.

[Renauda]

@horace

Perhaps you would prefer me to go into a impious Full Throttle mode?

To your credit I might add. I always respected WFB and more often than not, totally agreed with what he had to say on issues.

Romney, the architect of Romneycare, has never been a conservative except on fiscal matters and even then, he has let some things go by unopposed, that I suspect most conservatives could not. Chaney is a neocon. I don't know if that qualifies by your definition. Huntsman might make the criteria...

I thought you already tried that. But if it makes you feel better, by all means!

I should hope so.

[Renauda]

@horace

Actually I hadn't, but carry on. You are doing a fine job of digging yourself into a hole all on your own.
