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

17Sep/11Off

Obama, Jon Stewart, and The Planet Solyndra

Much has been (rightly) made of the scandal involving the bankrupt "green energy" company Solyndra receiving half-a-billion dollars from the government, only to go belly-up a year or so later.  The investigation into what the White House knew, and when they knew it, is on-going.  But to the credit of The Daily Show, Jon Stewart gave the president and his peeps a tongue-lashing this past week that they're surely not soon to forget.

It's a tie in my mind between how angry I am that the government flushed $500 million down the toilet and how surprised I am that The Daily Show took the administration to task.

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.
