"The" "American" "Conservative": Cultural Hot Mess Drag Revue

What else is one to make of

Run, Elizabeth Warren, Run?

What else is one to make of slobberingly sanctimonious sexually Orthodox Rod Dreher, TAC's premier headliner, cheekily offering the now-uncloseted fellow patrons at Club TAC an image of one woman pertly whipping another woman sexually? Oooh, la-lah!

Clearly, TAC is a place for formerly closeted, self-loathing conservatives to gather with others of their kind and to boldly throw off the religious, political, and other cultural yokes that nature and nurtue have so cruelly bent and broken them under previously. And doesn't the red of Elizabeth's jacket just make a stunning conservative statement to those ends?

At TAC, you, too, can free yourself of the principles and other benchmarks of political, religious, moral and other cultural gender that have kept your Fauxcahontas parts chafing under conventional conservative bindings so cruel, so hateful, so wrong, for far too many years.

Why suffer any longer the slings and arrows a "conservative" conservative must endure at the hands of the mainstream media, not to mention at holiday office parties? Instead, as your eyes meet theirs between sips of your Pink Squirrel across that crowded room, you can sensuously mouthe "The" "American" "Conservative" and from now on their own twinkling eyes will understand everything.

So as the year end fast approaches, won't you consider again a contribution to "The" "American" "Conservative", the one place where you can safely reveal yourself to be the sort of Elizabeth Warren conservative you were born to be, among others just like you?

And, as a bonus, your contributions will go directly to funding one of Rod Dreher's frequent getaways to New Orleans' mysterious, anonymously exotic French Quarter, a realm where anything is possible and where one day, if you're lucky, your eyes could even meet his, twinkling, across a Manhattan and in unison you could both mouthe "The" "American" "Conservative".

UPDATE (as they say): Apparently, in the cold light of later this morning, headliner Dreher regretted the popper-fueled personal enthusiasm yesterday's choice of dancing chaps revealed.

Yesterday: the personally exhortative Run, Elizabeth Warren, Run

Sobered up later this morning: the now-standoffish The Value of an Elizabeth Warren Run

Frankly, this is why I can't believe anything this little coquette says, about his sister Ruthie, about his faith, about his sexuality, about his parents, about his finances, about his political beliefs, anything: everything, everything he says is a malleable deception in progress, constantly being recalculated and revised according to how he believes it can best be sold in the marketplace of the moment.

  1. Because nothing says "alt-conservative" like the federal government taking the financial industry even more captive than it is. Well, maybe this does.

    1. Does anyone really think Dreher understands the derivatives section in Dodd-Frank Warren is actually basing her demagoguery on? Not a chance.

      But it will drive the progressive mob, the ones who find Dreher one of those "thoughtful" conservatives "you can talk to" wild for a day or too, long enough to earn another escape from Mrs. Dreher into a plate full of oysters and further points unspoken down there in the Big Easy.

      Allison, of course - Allison will sell whatever the kids are buying these days.

    2. Of course Dreher has no clue, but as you say he doesn't care.

      I'm starting to see the TAC crowd as the equivalent of the fascist apologists in the 1930s US. Their argument with the progressive statists is not about how much power the State ought to have, but instead over the ends to which that all-encompassing power ought to be directed. Those of us who simply want the State to have less power are merely knuckle-draggers to be ignored (unless dangerous like Ted Cruz).

      After all, nothing says "alt-conservative" like "You didn't build that!".

  2. Here's a typical example of the sort of suggestive gay deception TAC routinely serves its readers:

    [NFR: Paul Ryan told me earlier this year that in 2016, the GOP is going for a "federalist" approach...

    Wow! Paul Ryan speaks conversationally with Rod Dreher directly! Rod must be an important, connected man!

    Subsequent commenters assume that as the intended meaning of the comment and run with it, thus further validating that meaning.

    But here's a similar example:

    Keith: "President Obama told me in 2009 that if I liked my health insurance I could keep it."

    Wow! President Obama speaks conversationally with Keith directly! Keith must be an important, connected man...!

    This way to the Egress, suckers.

    1. That's why even Dreher was forced to change his Run, Elizabeth Warren, Run headline after 24 hours, because after 24 hours "We don’t endorse candidates at TAC".

  4. I think we should make "The Internatiomale." the magazine's theme song.
