Rush Limbaugh, back on OxyContin

From Opinionjournal:
I love being a conservative. We conservatives are proud of our philosophy. Unlike our liberal friends, who are constantly looking for new words to conceal their true beliefs and are in a perpetual state of reinvention, we conservatives are unapologetic about our ideals. We are confident in our principles and energetic about openly advancing them. We believe in individual liberty, limited government, capitalism, the rule of law, faith, a color-blind society and national security. We support school choice, enterprise zones, tax cuts, welfare reform, faith-based initiatives, political speech, homeowner rights and the war on terrorism.
Idiot lumps in the war on terrorism with conservatism. I think Lew Rockwell and The American Conservative would disagree
And at our core we embrace and celebrate the most magnificent governing document ever ratified by any nation–the U.S. Constitution. Along with the Declaration of Independence, which recognizes our God-given natural right to be free, it is the foundation on which our government is built and has enabled us to flourish as a people.
If you love the Constitution so much, then how come you support an illegal war in Iraq? Did you forget that only Congress has the power to declare war? Article 1, Section 8 Or do you just pick and choose the ones you like?
The “crackup” isn’t in the conservative group - it’s in the Republican party. Rush Limbaugh is no conservative - don’t be fooled.

War, conflict. It’s all semantics. As far as this article goes, it’s pretty much a man who is not a conservative (as you said), defending a party that is not conservative and the nominee of its leader who is also not conservative. There’s a reason Opinionjournal is WSJ’s free content, as it’s also its weakest…
