Political figures on the right seem to be dying off without replacement

[wuushew]

I would just like to point out several body blows that the conservative movement has suffured in recent years. Clearly having a living symbol is of some value.

William Rennquist d. 2005
Ronald Reagan d. 2004
Milton Friedman d. 2006
William F Buckley d. 2008
Jerry Falwell d. 2007
James D Kennedy d. 2007

future deaths?

Irving Kristol
Rev. Sun Myung Moon
Dr. Henry Kissinger

1. Conservatism itself is dying.

Not a moment too soon.

[supernova]

3. Let's all fervently hope so!

And whatever I can do to hasten the death of conservatism, I will do.

It is an evil philosophy, esp that virulent variety practiced over the last 30 years or so,

[pocoloco]

5. Unfortunately they will be back.

Much more subtle and therefore much more dangerous!

[Dr.Phool]

2. Charlton Heston just departed for the great firing squad in the sky.

4. I wonder...

...if they pulled his gun out of his cold, dead hands before sticking him the hearse. :spank:

6. Not fast enough ....

if you ask me.
