My comment about The Nation has nothing to do with the review. Granted, 
The Nation does have some occassional good writers, but I think the 
magazine sucks overall.

Chalk my anger up to an unfortunate incident this weekend where I 
cracked the cover of Todd Gitlin's new book when I was in a bookstore.

I'm feeling very anti-liberal this week.
