Sullivan calls himself a conservative, which in his writing, if not his mind, means a defender of his own habitudes against the depredations of those “fundamentalists” (Yglesias is good on his use of that word) whom he sees seeking some radical alteration of Andrew Sullivan’s quotidian existence. In the universe of his writing, Andrew Sullivan is the immovable object. The Church drifts from him. The War drifts from him. The Party drifts from him. But poor Andy, wherever he goes, there he is.
