I was out of town when this subject line appeared; I haven't done much back-reading in the archives because I don't for the life of me see why the left needs an ethical foundation -- that topic seems utterly pointless. (Perhaps ethics need a political foundation, but it is bizarre to fuss about an ethical foundation of the left.) As I said in the post I wrote a minute or two ago, I'm just visiting on this thread. Epistemology is sometimes entertaining, but crime fiction is better.
