Hansen is verbose. I’m not a fan.
Couldn’t disagree with you more.
VD Hanson is a very mild mannered conservative academic, highly understated in tone, but he is thorough, just as you'd expect from a scholar.
So his articles invariably consists of a long list of examples which make the point he's driving home.
For those with no patience, you need read only his first few examples to see where he's going.
Everything else simply bolsters that point.
By now Hanson is not simply a national treasure, he's a highly endangered species -- a California conservative academic of northern European ancestry.
So he's our canary in the leftists' political coal mine.
