Extreme conservatives are no better than extreme liberals. They just want to impose different things.

Except for one minor point. It was conservatives that built the country, and it is the Liberals that have been busy trying to tear it apart since the 60's.
Yet, today, America's leaders are reenacting every folly that brought these great powers [Russia, Germany, and Japan] to ruin -- from arrogance and hubris, to assertions of global hegemony, to imperial overstretch, to trumpeting new 'crusades,' to handing out war guarantees to regions and countries where Americans have never fought before. We are piling up the kind of commitments that produced the greatest disasters of the twentieth century.
— Pat Buchanan – A Republic, Not an Empire
