Unconscionable Conservatism
Recently
I observed that the only two times I'd ever posted about conservative commentator Max Boot, it had been by way of noting rather sensible things he'd said (re: global warming and the International Criminal Court). I wondered whether he wasn't veering dangerously close to apostasy.
I needn't have worried. Some of you were no doubt way ahead of me on this; for those who weren't,
here's Gavin M. guesting at the Newsblog, giving us the latest on Boot's tobacco astroturf scandal and Wikipedia tomfoolery (
originally reported by Matt Yglesias).
Unfortunately, one really can't afford to give these people the benefit of the doubt, even when they seem to be talking sensible-like.
