A former Trotskyite, no one influenced American conservativsm more than Irving Kristol. An intellectual giant and American man of letters will be sadly missed.

Kristol, David Horowitz, Whittaker Chambers — often, when a hard-line communist becomes disillusioned, he goes all the way to the other side.

I guess it’s pretty easy to see why conservatism went into a nose dive over the past 10 years when it’s leading influence was a Trotsky communist.
