Kos: Conservatives outside the mainstream. Again.

Atrios watches CNN:

Just on CNN, 69% say there shouldn't be a pardon, 18% say there should be. 52% say Cheney was part of a cover-up, 29% say no.

At this point, is there any issue left in which the conservative position is preferred by a majority of Americans?

Update: I went and looked it up. There are only a few issues in which the typical progressive position loses to the conservative one. One is gay marriage. The latest AP poll 1/16-18, found that 51 would support a law banning gay marriage, 45 oppose it. Those numbers are improving with time (and gay marriage is overwhelmingly supported by young Americans, so the future bodes well). There's the death penalty, which has a 65-32 favorability rating in an ABC/WaPo poll from last year. However, given the choice between the death penalty and life in prison without parole, the death penalty only edged out prison 50-46.

And yet the media continues to catapult the conservative propaganda, as in 'librul is bad' and 'Ronnie Rayguns is God' and the ever present 'It's OK if you're a Republican'

1. There is no such thing as a republicon 'conservative'

They like to use the word conservative, but that's just a propaganda smokescreen, for they are dangerous radicals.

They spend money like drunken sailors, they have thrown the USA deep deep deep in the hole financially,
they are gungho on Nation Building, and they trash the earth, air, and water that all of our children and grandchildren
will need to survive. Meanwhile, they are supporting a RADICAL mutation of the food chain with whipsaw fast wholesale
genetic engineer cloned crap food product.

republicons are totally radical. I will never use the word 'conservative' in association with such a radical pack of corrupt cronies. To do so would be right out of 1984 -- doubleplusungood.
