Those who want to do all this purging are not conservatives at all. I may not agree with all that is at World Net Daily but they are open and honest to the core. WND broke the Zar Jones story in April. They bear no resemblance to the John Birch Society. As a southerner I understand why many people wave the Confederate battle flag. Like Malcolm X, they can be criticized for the rascism it once stood for, but can be applauded for the defiant independent spirit and pride it represents to many. As an old truck driver once told me, “I don’t display that flag because my black friends wouldn’t understand.” Some people may be embarrassed by the overt Christian element at WND, not a problem for this Buddhist. It’s a far cry to appreciate our allies in the conservative cause from the Democrats’ seating of Code Pink and Michael Moore in places of honor. They are welcome to do it, they are stupid to do it.
