I read The Economist and Le Monde, as well as alternating the NYT and the WSJ. As probably the only quasi-"Austrian" on the list, and (to the horror of my friends) as a big fan of Judge Posner, I am up on more (smart) right wing literature than most folks here. But "smart" is the relevant word. We are all familiar with the kind of response that you posted: "Even, I, a left wing pacifist, say THIS TIME it is time to BOMD EM BACK TO THE STONE AGE!" We have had a long discussion about the Hitchens phenomena, and Hitch is a lot smarter than whoiz you posted. It's not like we are ina gehettow here we never hear anyone who talks like that. But the problem with a dumb article like the post is that there isn;t enough to grip to reply. it's just a statement of string opinion, and how to you argie with that?

I do what I can, Ian, though I don't do political stuff from work.
