27 January 2008Happy birthday, dear wingersHow shall we celebrate the tenth anniversary of the Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy? Suggestions in Comments, please. Posted at 11:09 AM to Listing to One Side , Political Science FictionWe could each send a postcard (because it doesn't have to be "opened") to Hillary. Signed: "It's been a great ten years. From the Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy" Posted by: Deborah at 11:54 AM on 27 January 2008throw back some ice cold brewskis and perform a bit of auto-erotica on your fave pix of Hillary...what a catharsis! Posted by: paulsmos at 12:12 PM on 27 January 2008I like how Deborah thinks. "Dear H: The Condor roosts at dawn. You know what to do. --VRWC" Posted by: McGehee at 3:32 PM on 27 January 2008We could recruit them to cross over and vote against her in the Super Tuesday Primaries, where it is legal. And maybe even where it is not. At least that way, she can run around with a truthful accusation for a change. Posted by: Jennifer at 4:07 PM on 27 January 2008Huckabee was a beneficiary of this "conspiracy", as he became governor of Arkansas with Jim Guy Tucker's resignation. I thought the VRWC started with Pat Buchanan's Kulturekampf speech at the Republican National Convention in 1992. Are you sure it's only 10 years old? Posted by: Dan B at 7:27 PM on 27 January 2008Well, it's the tenth anniversary of Hillary bestowing the name, anyway, and face it, she's a tad more influential than Buchanan. (Here's the speech. Nowhere does Pat use either the words "vast" or "conspiracy.") Whats the frequency Kenneth? Posted by: Ron at 2:05 PM on 28 January 2008She got it wrong. It's only half-Vast.
