Oddly enough, I find credibility in two right wing radio talk show hosts Gary McNamara and Eric Harley ( early morning " Red Eye Radio ) . They are what I call honest conservatives - don't need the BIG LIE to defend their pro-capitalist, " patriotic " point of view. For nearly two years now Gary and Eric have laughed at the Mueller investigation and criticized it with cogent logic. " Where is the CRIME ? " they ask again and again.
I am a political opponent of both President Donald Trump and conservative thinkers like these two " Red Eye Radio " hosts. But that does not blind me to respectable arguments. Not rarely President Trump shows some refreshingly crude honesty .That is why HE is president today - not " Corrupt Hillary ".
" Conservatism " is not just a stubborn political orientation . Along with " Liberalism " and " Radicalism " it is a broad philosophy of life. At times in the history of civilization one of these ways of thinking is wiser than others.
In recent decades " Conservatism " shows more REASON in the cultural wars - along with the Catholic Tradition so much scorned by that generic " Left ".
" Conservativism " , however , is muddled in imagining that the capitalist epoch in history is forever, that there is no real MOTION in history.
Sadly the " liberalism " of the Democrats has nothing in common with a great tradition . It is now besotted by vicious and vacuous " identity politics " - a long way from FDR and the New Deal
