Will’s weak case for conservatism
George Will attempts to explain “why America has two parties and why the conservative one is preferable,” but he fails on both counts. Greg Anrig deconstructs Will’s arguments at TPM Café, and succeeds where Will fails. Anrig not only proves that liberalism is preferable to conservatism by countering Will’s rhetoric with facts, but has enough snark left to note that Will:
…is reciting exactly the same rigmarole that he and other conservatives have repeated since before Reagan was president, as though the failures of conservatives to deliver on their promises while in power during most of the interim somehow isn’t germane to the discussion.
Bravo!
