So, we find there are at least three things which big-thinking, professional Conservative Havers-of-Opinions agree on.
First, a Very Bad Thing happened to Conservatism at some point in the past.
Second, despite being big-thinking, professional Conservative Havers-of-Opinion, they have no idea what exactly the Very Bad Thing was (Spoiler: I guarantee that, sooner that you will believe possible, somehow, some way, Conservative dogma will settle on blaming the Libtards.)
Third, whatever the Very Bad Thing was, it was definitely not their fault.
