A Douthat attack

Ross Douthat really gets stuck into Dinesh D'Souza in his latest column, which is also interesting because it makes it feel like Ross, as a sophisticated conservative, is barely clinging on to anything the Republicans believe on economic policy these days.

It's true:  D'Souza is like a walking Catallaxy thread - full of hyperbolic claims of evil in anything Democrat or even vaguely progressive.   Any credibility he used to have has long gone, and he is a prime example of the poisonous, nutty element that dominates so much now in the American Right.   (He is, of course, a climate change fake skeptic, as is compulsory for all Right wing culture warriors.)

Anyway, go read Ross.
