A Voice in the Wilderness In Defense of "Mere Conservatism"

Catherine Bragg at Marin County, CA town hall: the lady speaks for herself

Where do I find a single woman like this?

Despite her perhaps over-zealous delivery, this woman just made one of the strongest cases for the kind of common sense, free market solutions most Americans inherently recognize as being...well...American.

  1. Rawk on!
    That takes guts, even with cheering crowds behind you. She summed up a feasible solution to the healthcare “crisis” in twenty seconds — tort reform and competition. The current bill in COngress is — what — over 1000 pages? I would add in tax-free healthcare savings accounts that carry over year-to-year (ours expires at the end of the year, and if we do not use every cent, the guv’ment takes it — how stupid is that?), and you’ve gone a big step toward solving Medicare as well.
    Go, Cate, go!

  2. Does it get any better than this?

What is “Mere Conservatism”?

The basic ideas, ideals, and values that generally define and characterize the central tenets of what today might be termed "modern conservative thought."

We believe that a proper understanding of history, economics, and theology leads to certain conclusions. Many of these are the same conclusions our Founding Fathers arrived at in constructing a "more perfect union."

All ideas and opinions are welcome; not all are correct.
