Great stuff on Tim Blair's blog today, as usual.
First, there's a letter from Glenn Sacks (who wrote one of those moronic SF Chronicle columns defending John Walker as a courageous free-thinker,) to his "critics," which I imagine would probably include just about everyone who had the misfortune to read the blasted thing. The response is in many ways even sillier than the original column, but Blair has included parenthetical commentary that almost makes it worth reading. (That guy is a riot!)
Lots and lots of blog-space has been devoted to trashing Sacks since the original article came out, but I think Blair has finally come up with the most apt and succinct critique yet: "[vomiting]"
Yep.
Second, is this report on a survey of 275 "political, media, cultural, business, and government leaders" for a project run by former Secretary of State Madeleine Allbright:
Opinion leaders from around the world believe American policies caused the September 11 attacks and are pleased that the United States now feels a sense of vulnerability, according to a new survey of "elite" opinion in 24 countries.
