Horowitz examined this subject more closely in Radical Son (1996), a memoir tracing his odyssey from “red-diaper baby” to conservative activist that George Gilder described as “the first great autobiography of his generation."

That's from About David Horowitz on the linked site. From this disjointed, illogical screed, it's clear that Horowitz is not a Conservative. I now have my doubts if he ever was. This was the guy who edited Ramparts, an organ of the far-left. It seems he's simply revealing his true self.

Horowitz never lost his "white guilt" completely. I don't know if someone who was infected from birth with it, can. They are always mindful of losing face with the "respectable right" even if they don't mind the left.

I think you should read the book before you make that assessment. I read it. Horowitz has been intellectually courageous like few others in our time. That has nothing to do with being kind of a p*s*y in the man departament. That’s the result of his ethnic background and where he grew up.
