One of jillions.

I am frothing currently about the success of the term "fiscal conservative," which sounds so obviously good that, so far as I can detect, people not only think it's a core value that requires no argument, but they don't bother to think about what meaning the GOP attaches to it. From which one might could go on to thinking about (1) whether what they man by fiscal conservatism is a good idea, (2) what they themselves thought it mean or should mean, deeper down, and (3) how a nation could go about that.

At best people argue about whether the GOP are "real" fiscal conservatives, good grief.
