Beyond that, a bigger change has happened. I no longer think Hollywood stars are terribly important. When the rest of the public learns this lesson the country will be a much better place.

Thanks for posting this. I wasn't aware of Ben Stein's thoughful side, and I am impressed. His son could learn a few more things from him.

Oh my gosh - the guy on Cavuto. I thought that might be him, but I didn't remember him being in pictures.

Just saw Ben Stein's Yahoo TV commercial with Al Franken. At least the right side of the screen was good - the "left" side (in more ways than one) was awful! The years have not been kind to Franken.

What a great story! Stein has always been excellent, but obviously the war has given him another perspective.

Several years ago Mr. Stein wrote a heart-wrenching piece in the American Spectator about the death of his father.
My wife was very moved by it and sent him a card expressing our sympathy(first time she ever did anything like that and I was kind of surprised).
A few weeks later, we received a wonderful handwritten note of thanks from Mr. Stein.
The guy is a class act. This column nails it.

There's a big heart that shines through this piece. I'm glad to hear about the note to your wife.
It makes it believable to me that he really does care as much as this article indicates.
It's nice to run across a real person anyplace, but especially in the media.
