I don't agree with much of what Hentoff stands for, but he is a voice for free speech and THE UNBORN. He has written about the vileness of the Clintons and the censorship of the left, the lies of the proabortionists and the crimes of the UN.

One reason this country is going downhill is because of the reluctance of so many of us to actually READ before voicing an opinion. Not everyone is so cookiecutter as the yammerers on MSNBC and at the NYT.

Yeah, but there is so little demand for honest leftism that the reactions are not surprising. People think it has died out completely.

He’s an honest liberal. He had no use for Slick Willie.

Right you are.

...Nat Hentoff has written some fine books on Jazz and politics. More of a Civil Libertarian than on the left or right, he take a stand on an issue, praising or condemning both democrats and republicans.

...Yer right. FR has changed alot in my 8 years here. Bovine mentality, puerile chatroom behavior, idol worship and fandome threads. Don't try to debate them, they'll turn you into a troll. Not only do they not read, they don't think for themselves. They just follow the herd...

Agreed.

There are more and more morons on FR as time passes.

Hentoff was honest. Just because one does not agree with him 100% of the time is not a reason to call him names.

Well said.
