It’s important to be at least somewhat grounded in reality about what is significant about the defeatist posture taken by Mr. Lugar et. al. — and what is business as usual for a certain type of Republican. Anyone who remembers Mr. Voinovich’s emotional attack against John Bolton (Mr. Voinovich later reversed himself) or his ramblings in response to radio talk-show host Sean Hannity’s factual questions about his support (subsequently reversed) for the failed Senate immigration bill understands that he’s hardly a thinking man’s conservative in the mold of the late Sen. Robert Taft. ~The Washington Times

Now, according to some, being like “Mr. Republican” is irrelevant to the current challenges that Americans face–at least if it means adopting a sane foreign policy!  Apparently he is good enough for jingoes when they can try to use his name as a club with which to beat dissenting Republicans.
