Excellent article, and wonderfully posted with all links intact. Thanks. The author really nails the incredible snobbery, especially the back-stabbing of nominal conservatives like Brooks and Parker.
No, the 4th and 5th, were relative links to prior American Thinker articles. They go nowhere. It's one of the perils of just copying the source code at American Thinker.
I usually check National Review daily. They used to host Kathleen Parker, George Will and Charles Krauthammer articles on their website on a regular basis. Once the dissing of Palin started, they only link the latter two occasionally. Ditto Peggy Noonan, IMHO.
