Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.
“Center-right” is talk-radio code designed to make their followers believe what they’re watching in the current conservative movement is somehow moderate. That George Bush, Tom Delay, Bill Frist, Denny Hastert, and John Boener are just middle-of-the-road average dudes. They’re not. Sean Hannity, Hugh Hewitt, and Dennis Prager all use the phrase to describe themselves. They’re all far from “center-right”. To choose “that” phrase introduce oneself tells me everything I need to know about a particular conservative.
Welcome to Portland, Ms Hovde. I trust Messers Campbell, Day, Nelson, and Atkinson have all updated their contacts.
