I read Jonah Goldberg’s book Liberal Fascism, several months ago. I added a book review on Amazon in which I praised the book for its new insights into political history. Needless to say, the political left has been uniformly negative, often amusingly so. Goldberg today publishes an excellent rebuttal to a rather mean spirited review in The New Republic. I used to subscribe to The New Republic for many years and gave gift subscriptions to my family. I finally gave up on it about three years ago. Goldberg explains why.
The comments after the review are almost as illuminating as the review.

I think that Sowell’s “A Conflict of Visions” helps to explain this kind of disconnect, Dr. K. The folks attacking Goldberg don’t have to be consistent or logical. They are *right* and he is not just wrong, but *evil*.
Sigh.
