The Conservative Descent into Moral Bankruptcy

by
Nineteen ninety and 1991 were critical years for conservatives, years that accelerated their decades-long descent into moral bankruptcy. The Berlin Wall came down in 1990, signaling the end of the Soviet Empire. The Persian Gulf War ended in 1991. It is impossible to overstate the radical nature of the philosophy that formed the basis for the founding of the United States.

He claims that we are no longer fighting for freedom because Saddam has been caught! Does this man pay attention to the news? We are not occupying the Middle East to merely throw our weight around…. I am a member of the United States Army….” Jacob Hornberger: “….The real truth, which Bass and so many other American ...
