"silly. we call these sorts of arguments reductio ad ridiculum for obvious reasons. when conservatives say things like "i'd like to return to america's first principles", they don't mean taking a time machine and negating all the good things they've done, like passing the 14th amendment, for example. how many democrats voted for the 14th amendment? zero.  no, what conservatives usually mean when they say those things, is they'd like to return to pre-socialist america with all that encompasses. we believe in legislative equal rights, but we're absolutely against the leftist idea that government should continue to fail at legislating equal outcomes. equal rights ≠ equal outcomes. we're pragmatic, not pie-in-the-sky utopian." - Brooks Bayne

"based on your account, i'm sure you're both wonderful people, but with regard to relationships, you're both retarded. so, maybe you are a good fit for one another." - Brooks Bayne

"it's possible that, just like anyone else, newt could've changed his mind on some things. the tea party movement has educated/reeducated a lot of folks and recentered "north" on a lot of people's conservative compasses. newt hasn't been recently saying any of these things that you cite. after all, you used to be a drunk, glenn. redemption happens. invite him on your show and ask him about it." - Brooks Bayne
