Hitler was pretty smart and Reagan, though not analytically sharp, was a
political genius. However, your point about the need to refute lying
blowhards is well taken. (Many politicos of all stripes fit that bill.) We
needn't refute all of them, though. I guess it depends on the context
whether it is worth doing. My original response to the idea of debating
Horowitz was: only if he can be utterly demolished.
