Damon Linker added,
I try to be fucking nice to a dying man and look where it gets me!
If you said something nice, I missed it! Wasn’t singling you out at all. I’m a fan. (If also sometimes a critic.)
"Krauthammer found a wide audience as an eloquent neo-conservative."
His “Unipolar Moment” essay was especially important at the time it appeared. Kind of a companion piece to Fukuyama’s original “End of History” essay (though not the book, which is much deeper).
It was a dreadful essay imo, historically important as an ideological fix-up to allow neocons and realists to cooperate, but riddled with magical thinking.
I think that critique can be extended to much of CK's writing but this is not the ideal time for this discussion.
Yeah, though I’ll say I agree with Henry’s assessment. I just said it was important because it expressed and crystalized something in the air at that immediate post-CW moment.
Yeah, I think that's a major function of pundits like CK, to help turn inchoate moods into coherent seeming forms.
