I was banging around the Interwebs earlier this evening and I stumbled on this column on the Huffington Post: Megyn Kelly Battles Joe Scarborough
Under other circumstances, I would not have followed the link, but since it was on HuffPo, I figured there might be something of interest there, so I clicked on it. It was pretty much what I expected until I got to:
Kelly said that Scarborough has also been critical of Sean Hannity, Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh. "How can you be a true conservative if... you’re at war with so many of the conservative icons?" she wanted to know.
In order to frame my point, I'm going to rephrase Kelly's comment.
"Sean Hannity, Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh represent all that is good and true about conservatism and the conservative cause. How can you possibly not be in total agreement with them?"
My reply would be something on the order of: "How can one have an IQ above that of a hanging fern and take them seriously?"
These are the icons of conservatism? I'll bet George Will, Charles Krauthammer, et al. are really disappointed . . .
Or not. Maybe they consider the source and the audience.
