In a column written by managing editor Jason Lee Steorts, National Review apparently decided they didn’t want social conservatives — the third and largest leg of Reagan’s famed three-legged stool — to read their stuff anymore when they full-throated embraced the Rainbow Jihad.

And just like that a legacy marked by staring down Marxists both foreign and domestic is no more. National Review has been surrendered to America’s Cultural Marxists. So much for the legacy founded by the man who gave us God and Man at Yale. …

This isn’t totally out of left field, though. Steorts began showing his true colors back in 2013 when he ran Mark Steyn – arguably one of the most courageous and entertaining conservatives of the last decade – out of National Review for daring to call the agenda of the Rainbow Jihad into question.

That agenda was still in its ‘How is my gay marriage going to affect your life?’ stage, but Steyn saw through the scam and said as much in his typically biting yet congenial way. Less than two years later we know Steyn to be a prophet, as businesses great and small are now forced to genuflect at the altar of homosexual hubris and pagan courts gone wild. …

A much celebrated 2014 study claiming voters’ minds can be changed about gay marriage by way of interaction with homosexual activists was determined to be entirely made up. As in a fake. A total sham. As real as unicorns and a pro-life Democrat. …

Whether he wants to admit it or not, that’s the sort of vortex of licentiousness that a very smart guy like Steorts has gotten himself caught up in. How else does one convince himself that the spirit of William F. Buckley, whose traditionalism could be measured out by his undying support for the Catholic Church’s Latin Mass, would somehow come down on the side of perhaps the greatest cultural farce in this country’s history?
