#7 Matthew said “. The Republicans do need to explain that Rush is one voice among many, and the Republicans do need to emphasize policies such as free-market health-care reform. And Republicans do need to show that Republican policies are better at ameliorating economic pain than Democratic policies. Mr. Limbaugh, both at CPAC and on his show, sneered at “policies” as if it were a dirty word, and many conservative commentators have pointed out that this is a mistake on his part.”
YOU don’t get it either. He sneered at policies because Conservatives act on their principles. Policies aren’t invented to please this or that (fleeting) constituency. Policies naturally fall out from a Conservatives principles. We know inherently that attempting to play Robin Hood is wrong (stealing from anyone is wrong for any reason) and thus we don’t think up policies which will do that. Did you even listen to Rush’s CPAC speech yourself? He explained it all quite clearly.
