IS CONSERVATISM BRAIN DEAD?

Ann Althouse replies: “The question should be: Is it any more brain-dead than everything else? It’s not as if the liberals running the government have a coherent and compelling intellectual foundation under them.” It seems to be the same one the GOP used — stuff your pockets with other people’s money — just turned up to “11.”

We’ve got the worst political class in American history, and its rottenness is pretty thoroughly bipartisan.
