I tend to like Paleo\Old Right websites so long as there isn't too much moralism or eek racism involved. I don't like labeling things as "racism" on first hesitation, but what is with the giant white doe at VDARE? I like the website...kind of, but that white doe they have makes me nervous. The guy who runs it, Francis, blogs at LRC I think.
David Frum wrote this article entitled "Unpatriotic Conservatives" where he bashes people on the right who oppose the occupation of Iraq. Link to David Frum article. (http://www.frontpagemag.com/articles/Read.aspx?GUID=47BA180E-2C05-4AF1-8396-50E0F709F3FE)
The VDARE's Francis guy recently wrote this article in response to David Frum. Link here to Francis article. (http://www.vdare.com/francis/unpatriotic_conservative.htm)
So I was reading about this back and forth between Frum and Francis so that's how I noticed the VDARE site, but they have a giant white doe, which I don't know what to make of.
So if this a valid spectrum, I tend to like the so called Paleo's more than the run-of the mill conservatives so long as there isn't some race thing going on.
Neo-con --> Pro-war fiscal conservative --> Much less pro-war fiscal conservative --> Old Right conservative (loosing the moralism at this point) --> Minarchist --> anarcho-capitalism/voluntaryism
