He argues today that the problem with Republicanism is it’s all small governmenty.

Doug Mataconis deconstructs.

  1. Until the Republicans reject the GWOT as proposed by Kristol et al. they will not see power again.

    I thought the rank and file would be quicker to see this, but they are proving even more stupid than I thought.

  2. And it would be quite easy to deconstruct Mataconis’ version of limited government conservatism/libertarianism. It’s a complete myth as well.

    I suppose what the likes of Kristol are bragging about is that they have succeeded in wiping away such a veneer-and he’s quite right about that–and it’s time for party loyalists to adopt a ruling class ideology that acknowledges a ruling class.

  3. It is certainly true that absent a Ron Paul candidacy the Republican party has little free market credentials left.
