Came across
this post by Kevin Drum today and thought it was pretty much the most on point and succinct analysis we had heard on the subject:
The modern, tea party-inflected conservative movement is based on a few core principles. Global warming is a hoax. Income inequality hasn't been growing. Tax cuts don't increase the deficit. America has the best healthcare in the world. Evolution is a myth. The economy is weak because of regulatory uncertainty. Barack Obama is a socialist.
I'm trying to think of another successful political movement in history based on so many objectively fantastical beliefs. Not really coming up with any....
Pretty on the money, if you ask us...
