You are right. Joe and Mika are not intellectuals, and I did not mean to imply they were. These new words like sanewashing are being created by the leftist intellectuals outside our view, and parroted by Mika and Joe. The fact remains that there is no intellectual pushback from our side. I remember when we used to have respected intellectuals who could hold their own.
There’s certainly no one who can match witts to the likes of William F. Buckley!
Victor Davis Hanson is good on history but he doesn’t have the sharp rapate that Buckley was famous for.
