Its interesting that some feel the need to offer up obscure speakers, authors, etc and then claim they have "meaning".

They don't. If a author isn't read....nobody makes a sound.

"FRANCIS Fukuyama"

Never heard of him. And with a hillarious last name like that I'm SURE I'd remember him if I had.

Who in the world is this guy? Never heard of him.

The worldwide liberal press is really having to dig deep.

But not everyone was convinced. Mrs Thatcher muttered: "The end of history? The beginning of nonsense."

Wonderful comment!

Few "historians" got it more wrong than Fukuyama with his asinine end-of-history pronouncement. He should be ashamed to raise his head in public again, much less open his mouth.

'The End of History' concluded that there was no alternative to the liberal, capitalist democratic model.

A conservative icon - yeah, sure. I recall his work getting lots of glowing attention in places like Time Magazine. His central idea irritated me greatly at the time. It arrogantly flew in the face of all history, namely that periods of quite always precede the inevitable storm.

Conservatives value the hard lessons of experience and history over the noddling of self-infatuated intellectuals such as Fukuyama.

So he thinks we're losing. By what measure? If so, why is AQ leaving Iraq?

Not only are folks nowadays no longer able to tell the difference between good and evil, they can't measure winning vs. losing either.
