Today Joe Sobran was laid to rest. This was his best long essay and as good an introduction to the conservative temperament as any.

Counting the Costs of Clintonism
The debacle of this president’s administration is both a cause and a symptom of the decline of American values. Unless Congress impeaches him, that decline will go on unchecked. An eminent jurist surveys the damage and assesses the chances for the recovery of our culture.

If I have to read Conservative antisemites, at least Taki can be humorous.
Sobran was still a pig; he helped alienate an incredibly gifted people from the truths of Conservatism due to his irrational hatred.

anti-Semite: a person who’s hated by Jews

Another Neocon who can't stand true conservatives. What he criticized Israel and you can't handle that? Not PC enough for you?

No, this is his most brilliant:

Read if you can stand liberty undiluted with neocon Statism.
Why don't the neos just admit they love the State as long as its the club in their hands instead of the State loving Democrats?
All this pretending about "limited government" and "constitution" really wears thin when you use the same personal attacks, backed by the same elitist attitude, against those who disagree with you just like the commies.
Why don't you neos just kiss and make up with your fellow Statists and go on home where you belong.
I also can't help but notice that after several back handed "compliments", as well as vicious innuendo, we keep seeing these Sobran posts. Talk about grudging. Just admit he was a true independent thinker and brilliant writer who was treated shabbily by those who weren't fit to run with his dogs, the sellouts at NeoNational Review.

And now he's sleeping with the dogs where he belongs.
Woof.

Thanks for proving my point with your yapping. Conservatism is going nowhere with intellectually challenged, not to mention morally bankrupt, "allies" like this.

I read Mr. Sobran's pieces in National Review, as well as his syndicated column. The man was no anti-semite, period. Judging by his writing, he thought things through, and he was willing to stand by what he wrote. If he was wrong, he was wrong, but he deserves better than snide innuendo, to say nothing of gross contempt.

Dr. David Allen White writes a little piece about Joseph Sobran at the Catholic Family News website for anyone who is interested.
