I was out on the piss with some awful pals in that there London circa 2007. Who should see on the other tube escalator other than Douglas Hurd. Cue a drunken chorus of "Maggie Maggie out out out".

Good times.

This is a decent article. @PolishHeadlock2 have you seen this one?

A good piece for conservatives and liberals to check out really.

@Jack V Savage what do you think of it?

Entertaining piece. I think if you read between the lines, though, what you see is that Limbaugh followed rather than led his audience (and the rightist movement in America) through its decline. Probably generally true that people confuse an audience saying, "this guy is saying stuff I already agree with so I like him," with an audience blindly following a leader.

Anyway, what percentage of people have general principles that they apply to derive specific political positions? As opposed to having inconsistent gut reactions that they try to map onto principles. Obviously 100% of people are not successful at that mission all the time, and it's probably not a good thing anyway--which is why conservatism has value if you don't take it too far (excessive ideological rigidity is the problem with Communists and libertarians, for example, and leads them to cruel and absurd positions). But how many even try or even get to the point where they should start worrying about too much rather than not enough?
