[...] Liberals propose to follow the same game plan that gave us stagflation in the 1970s. [...] On January 6, 2008, five Iranian gunboats swarmed three US Navy ships passing in international waters through the Straits of Hormuz, coming to within 200 yards, issuing threatening radio communications, and launching objects into the water that could have been mines. This was a classic hazushi play – testing how much of his sleeve and lapel [...] Conservatism is a big enough tent to include many differing views on specific issues, but there are overriding principles that bind conservatism as a political force.
