It seems there are some conservatives who suffer from an unfortunate desire to be applauded by the left. While it is tiresome to see ostensibly right-thinking men and women prop up leftwing news outlets as guests and commentators, it is downright disgusting when they rush to offer quotes to publications that attack conservatives.

The leftist, establishment media is always looking for camera-chasing Conservative, Inc.-wannabes to participate in the virtual lynching of actual citizen-activists. And, all too often, they find accomplices willing to build themselves up by participating in the character assassination of activists seeking to champion real reform.
