The American Spectator : The Spectacle Blog : Kristol on Manifesto

I’ve been writing in the past week about a sensible-Left document called the Euston Manifesto, here, and also at the end of this column. (My column itself was mentioned by another Guardian columnist, but most of the Guardian blog respondents slammed me and the Manifesto. Oh, well.) Now, kudos to Bill Kristol at The Weekly Standard for advancing the cause in a very good column. I can only hope that there are enough voices on the Left to see that dialogue and making common cause for freedom are goals worth pursuing.
