The Nation is a liberal equivalent of the Weekly Standard.

Wrong. The New Republic is the a liberal equivalent of the Weekly Standard.

The Nation is far, far more to the left, than the Weekly Standard is to the right. In fact there is no right-wing equivalent that I can think of.

If you want to get in bed with the The Nation, that's fine. But material from The Nation belongs at DU IMO.

I was searching for information to try and confirm Spiff's words that Rudy had a deficit at the end of his mayoral term, and I came across this article.

I'm not quite that familiar with the Nation, only that it was left-leaning.

Didn't know it was the intellectual equivalent of "The Militant".

The Nation is far, far more to the left, than the Weekly Standard is to the right. In fact there is no right-wing equivalent that I can think of.

And yet a huge contingency of FReepers will spend the weekend telling us why they're right "on this article."

I have no real problems with people not supporting Rudy, or even not wanting him to win. But I find it amusing that the far left and the far right are singing from the same hymnal.
