I mean he was always center right in that I think he wasn't a strong social conservative but he was awesome in pointing out the insanities of the left and Islamist radicalism. Now it almost seems like he is intentionally trying to upset people that used to be his friends. Maybe something went on behind the scenes that he is not being up front about... Also I think sometimes people don't fully think through the things they believe. It's like there is a catalyst that will throw them in a certain direction (like 9/11) then something else happens and it throws them in another direction.

At least not very firmly? I kinda wonder. (and by wonder, I mean that I pass judgment and make the assumption that, indeed, they never believed what they now so flippantly and without valid reason discard. But that's just me and my hate speech. Do you find that people who come to these “realizations” never really held these positions to begin with? At least not very firmly?
