Seconded. When I see a "conservative" administration taking actions
like putting tariffs on steel and pushing for an amendment defining
marriage, I realize that there's no "Convervative" in that
"conservative" administration. It's just another kind of liberal.

Please. Such positions are ignorantly Fascistic, not liberal. Trying to
sell us on the idea that record deficits are of no concern is liberal.
Fiscal irresponsibility is liberal. So, if the party embraces those that
hold such views, one merely has to decide where they stand on such points.
I don't find the choice all that hard to make.
