I’m not sure Henthoff is a liberal. Maybe a libertarian? I’m not a student of his work or even a regular reader, but when I do ready him I’ve often found myself agreeing with him or at the very least acknowledging that he argues logically. I’m pretty darn conservative and I don’t tolerate irrational or emotionally hysterical arguments.

Surely we don’t have to fuss over the classic definition of the word, “liberal”, do we, as applied to Nat, the “liberal icon” exactly described in the title?
And surely we don’t have to pole vault for a snark, to reach some bizarre extrapolation of the word “snit”, by applying it to “30 years” of opposition to abortion and then sticking a question mark on the tail.
Insulting, actually, which should tell you that I am pro-LIFE, making hard to appreciate your humor.

1) A liberal isn’t necessarily a leftist.
2) The GOP prolly wants to get past the Obama era without incident thinking it will have paid its obligatory race-card fees.

Rita, I did not mean to insult you. You're a valued FReeper and pro-life ally.I fumbled expressing my puzzlement. I just don't understand you giving the back of your hand to Nat Hentoff, an other good ally over all these years. He's been especially helpful in defending the Free Speech and Free Association rights of Pro-lifers, Christians, and Conservatives on college campuses.
What's with saying he's having a "snit" over Obama? He seems to have made a serious moral and political judgment against his unconstitutional policies.

“I wish I could do something about the current depressing state of America, but it seems beyond my control.”
Careful, a Don Quixote minded freeper will be along any second urging you to vote even harder and to take over your local Republican party.

Nat is a self proclaimed athiest, who works both ends of the political spectrum for a check. (This makes him a thinker’s thinker—some kind of genius, I guess.)
Presently he chirps for our side, but would I share a fox hole under fire with him—”No”. Would I go to the mat for him—”No”.
If no one minds, I’ll let Nat finish his evolving.

My opinion is that the members of Congress don’t give a damn about the country, our security, our Constitution, or our security. It’s all about THEM and getting reelected so they can suck more and more until they’re so senile they don’t know where they are anymore. They service each other while sucking every dime they can out of lobbyists and the American taxpayers. Their God is their Elitist egos and feeding their quest for power to the exclusion of everything else especially what’s good for the country, wanna bet?

I think that you have pretty well nailed it, Ma’am.

The title of this thread/article is deceptive. Nat Hentoff hasn't been a "liberal icon" for decades. He's long since affiliated with the Right.
I was genuinely hoping I'd learn of an actual liberal icon who was criticizing Obama. I should have known better.

I don’t know or follow Hentoff, so can’t say he has ever offended me.
I have no idea how many parts per gallon that Nat H. is both a self-professed athiest and a “liberal icon”, and what parts he is conservative. Conservative icon was just not a part of the title. Your issue might be better taken up with the columnist who wrote the title and called him a liberal icon.
For me, athiest thinking in general is suspect, though I admit that even a stopped clock can be right twice a day. Kudos to Nat, twice a day. :)

According to ZC at #71, Na is no longer considered a "liberal icon." I guess they came and took his membership card away.
Who knows, maybe by now he's a disciple of Jesus Christ Our Lord. I have been putting the invisible prayer beams on him :o)

Excuse me, Madam. This is my thread and I don't recall granting you permission to post anything, anything at all. :-( !!!
Howdy, stranger! Nice to see you out and about, exercising your inherent God-given Second Amendment privileges.
See you, around my dear, Yellow Rose of Texas! :-)

Well, ZC, commenter #75, thinks you're nit-picking but I won't argue with a fellow conspirator. I've made the moderator aware of your concerns and asked that the thread be removed so as not to impugn Free Republic and the credibility of the articles posted. It should be removed anytime now.
