Hey Frum you are not as important as you think you are. It is only the fact that William Buckley created the National Review and that much greater thinkers than you developed it that you have any sort of forum at all. Your sort of mugged by reality thinkers never have understood conservatism and you still don’t! Go back to whence you came sit down and shut the hell up.
More Thoughts on Palin
Credit where it’s due!
That was an amazing performance by Sarah Palin last night. She delivered a powerful, clever, and deftly savage speech – but even more important, she projected through the speech a personality at once charismatic and down to earth, feminine yet tough.
Her words about her special-needs child, and her cradling of the child at the end of her speech, showcased the best side of the prolife cause: a movement to protect the vulnerable and cherish humanity in all its seasons and forms. Together with Rudy Giuliani she effectively pounded Barack Obama as out-of-touch, dismissive, and callow.
Rudy brilliantly mocked Obama’s indecisiveness; Palin noted that even as a mayor of a small-town she had shouldered more responsibilities than Obama has ever had to face.
So: a great success. Palin revealed one of the sharpest political talents the Republican party has seen in a generation. She electrified the hall and added a powerful asset to a troubled ticket.
Do I therefore unsay any of the anxieties I have expressed in the past week? Well yes and no – but mostly no. Here’s why: David Frum’s Diary on National Review Online
A certain section of the elite on both sides of the aisle are terrified that regular folks have a representative that may end up in the White House. These “elite” love the Jets, the Chefs and the general wasting of money that goes on in Washington DC. It is a scam that both parties perpetuate upon us all. Screw these bastards. It is no small thing that Frum worked for the Republican, President Bush, who worked so hard at his “compassionate” conservatism that he screwed the Republican brand of cutting spending and doing away with government programs. Government spending skyrocketed under the sort of government Frum worked for…how he can be considered a Conservative is beyond me.
