Entry: The New Face of National Review Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/the_trotskyist_hour#876 Post contents: I knew Schwartz in San Francisco in the early-'90s when he was a largely ignored night-beat reporter for the S.F. Chronicle and the author of dull books that no one read. He used to hold forth at Enrico's, bloviating loudly about how all real commies were Jews (which he was allowed to say, being, at that time at least, a Jew himself), but always championing the Trotsky thug. He may have gone right in the Reagan era, but he never shook the left's overwhelming desire to radically change the world -- so symptomatic of your neocons today. Has anyone else noticed that it's all <em>phases</em> with these people? The last time I saw Schwartz he was in a new phase. He was sporting a ridiculous, Rasputin-esque beard and declaiming loudly about how he'd converted to Islam. That was some years ago, though after 9/11. I wonder if he's still doing that ludicrous schtick? Some people just never grow up. Sent at: 2008 05 16
