Left Turn: Is the GOP conservative?
From National Review Online: Quote:
The news this summer has been rather bleak for conservatives. The Supreme Court first decided to write "diversity" into the Constitution. A few days later, it issued a ruling on sodomy laws that called into question its willingness to tolerate any state laws based on traditional understandings of sexual morality. ...
...Republicans have been complicit in each of these debacles. Both the affirmative-action and sodomy decisions were written by Reagan appointees. President Bush actually cheered the affirmative-action decision for recognizing the value of "diversity."...
...[A]s recent events underscore, this is not a bad time for conservatives to declare their independence from the GOP establishment.
