Goldberg: The Post-Match Report
Re: The Gillespie/Goldberg debate: I was champing to hear what Jonah had to say about his grappling with Gillespie last night, but so far only this:
Oh my stars and garters, what an odd argument we had. And what strange, strange conversations I had with some libertarians afterwards….The conservative-libertarian schism is as healthy as it has ever been, at least among our little subculture here in Washington.
Lest anyone wonder about National Review's continued relevance as it enters its sixth decade, it's still standing athwart history crying havok, and the world still jumps, or seems to. I got quite a kick, playing catchup the other day in some piled-up magazine reading, to see in its June 5 issue (published before that date, of course) an article by David Pryce-Jones headlined: "Target: Hezbollah" with the subhed: "It may well make sense for Israel and for an endangered world."

Yeah well, that's forty-one words more than Nick has said about it. Unless maybe he's posting over at Wonkette, I haven't checked. But this is two posts today on the event, and nary a word on the exchange from the reason staff. Come on Nick, if we can't get the blow by blow, at least give us the postmortem.
I just want to know why there's a conflict between conservatives and librarians. Is it because social conservatives are into book burning?
To get the real skinny on the event check out the reportage at Wonkette.

Maybe someday I'll figure out how to link.
Don't hold yer breath, it took me too years to master italics.
Change that "too" to "two" or insert the word "many".
thank you.
