My Favorite Blogs

Look, this isn't the only blog there is. In fact, it is a rather insignificant speck of protoplasm in the great blogsphere that lies out there. So we honor our sibling blogs, and point you to what is happening there. Only the best blog threads are to be cited or invited.

Jim Kalb is one of my all time favorite people, and he has been blogging for a very long time. I don't know how the guy does it, he must be independently wealthy. Actually, I think he's a lawyer. His current blog, Turnabout is at:

http://turnabout.ath.cx:8000/

Topics shown as "Culture, politics, tradition and Catholicism"

In a word, Jim typifies paleoconservatism. As in New Oxford Review, Buchanan, Sobran.
If only we neoconservatives had somebody like him, we would have

1. Made Iraq a democracy
2. Privatized Social Security
and
3. Kept the Republicans in control of Congress

Yo, Bill! Of course I'm not any sort of prefixed conservative. I was conservative before conservatism evolved prefixes. But, I do believe the radical Islamist threat is one that musn't be ignored.

I know that Ron Paul is the most severe contemporary manifestation of what you cal "wimp conservatism." I might suppose that your wimp adjective referred to his foreign policy shyness, especially as you describe yourself as a "neoconservative," which has become a liberal profanity even to those who don't understand the true meaning of the term.

In any case there is much I like about Ron Paul. Some things, in fact, in unparalled measure. However, in addition to what I see as an inadequately charismatic presentation, I think what I believe is his true conviction about being friendly and trading with these kind of people, as we have with other people, is fatally Pollyanna and the moral passivity of a bygone world as well.
