Comments for Mr. Moderate http://www.mrmoderate.com Clowns to the left of me, Jokers to the right, here I am, stuck in the middle with you. - Gerry Rafferty Wed, 08 Feb 2012 03:20:53 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6 Comment on About Mr. Moderate by Squire http://www.mrmoderate.com/about#comment-56 Squire Fri, 07 Aug 2009 17:32:26 +0000 #comment-56 Great site. I agree with most of what I've read so far. A pity that the 5% Center is excluded from an active moderating role in government and society. Also, I'll admit to being irritated (at myself) that you've beat me to this site, right down to the Rafferty quotes! Great site. I agree with most of what I’ve read so far.

As I explain in my earlier essay, this makes the Republicans into the modern fascist movement. [...] [...] While the modern Republican Party likes to claim the mantle of conservativism for itself, in fact it is about as far away from actual conservativism as it can get while still being absolutely against socialism and communism.

]]> Comment on Confessions of a Goldwater Republican by Mr. Moderate » Blog Archive » New Conservatives Lack Ethics http://www.mrmoderate.com/opinions/politics/moderates/185/goldwater-republican.html#comment-39 Mr. Moderate » Blog Archive » New Conservatives Lack Ethics Sun, 27 Jul 2008 16:55:55 +0000 http://www.mrmoderate.com/?p=185#comment-39 [...] I wrote yesterday about the “win by any means” archetype, which unfortunately includes lawyers, politicians, cops, military members, and criminals. Dean points out that elder conservatives didn’t use to lack moral boundary lines. It is only the newer conservatives (or “neocons”) that align most perfectly into this archetype. And Dean isn’t the only one noticing this change. In an article dated last Wednesday (7/23/08), Paul Craig Roberts, another “old school” conservative, former Assistant Secretary of the Treasury, Associate Editor of the Wall Street Journal editorial page, and a Contributing Editor to the National Review also wrote that the Republican Party was now the worst enemy of American values. And I consider myself to be among them. Please read my own “Confessions of a Goldwater Republican.” [...] [...] I wrote yesterday about the “win by any means” archetype, which unfortunately includes lawyers, politicians, cops, military members, and criminals.
