I don't want to be a part of any country where the people can't set limits on immigration and can't set the conditions for citizenship. Flat out. Period.
In the definition of 'Conservatism' or as they say 'American Conservatism' it is the preserving ideal liberalism.... I have a proposition for him (and G.Will also as he says this same thing) ... I'll bet that for every 1 conservative GOP person he can show that believes this, I can produce 10 conservative GOP people who say NO - That Conservatism means protecting the status quo, defeating Roe v Wade, denying people of color the right to vote, and reducing the government down to where it was before FDR.... Who wants to take me up....
You're absurd. Conservatives do not want to take away the right to vote from black people. Roe V. Wade was an unjust ruling. At the very least, it should be decided locally. But the pro-life position is the one that is consistent with our founding principles. The whole purpose of government is to defend human life, liberty and property. The fact that you claim the right to take human life doesn't mean you actually have such a right. You're no different than the people who argued that they had a right to own slaves.
I like being a compassionate conservative.
NYT op-Ed pretty much kills the conservative hypothesis.

this is the most ridiculous "articulation" of conservatism I have ever heard. Bret Stephens is a joke
ok he improves as the conversation develops but his opening salvo is worthless
One of America's greatest conservatives works for the NYTimes? CK doesn't think so...
Conservatism is just progressivism in slow motion.
Also, since I've said this many conservatives have pushed for gun control. Literally in two weeks.
@Brady Fries Haha I'm gonna call my own ideology "Truth" so when people disagree with it I can just call them truth haters haha
I wonder how his Chinese Immigrant brother in law feels about Trump now?

"American greatness" what a joke. The facts on the ground tell us otherwise
Conservatives stand in the way of progress and honest distribution of resources
Sausagefest. Yuck.
