I don't have a dog in this fight but I definitely am tired of the ubiquitous Dershowitz. The enemy of my enemy....

Dershowitz doesn't see it this way. For example, he is Harvard faculty advisor for the Chabad Orthodox Jewish students group, and Chabad is solidly Republican. Look, if Dershowitz ever ran for office, I'd probably be all with everyone else here in called him a RINO. However, once you see someone making gestures in our way, and that person isn't trying to take us over Arnold-style, I think it is time for the big tent.

Yep...and Michael Medved thought his book was great.

Dershowitz a republican? Or anything approaching one? Are you out of your mind? Time to put the plug in the jug or stop smokin' that wacky tabacky!

The only thing conservative about Dershowitz is his support for Israel. Just because he displays a hypocritical ethnic solidarity with his fellow Jews does not excuse his disgusting liberal politics in every other sphere. I'm glad to see Finklestein take apart that self-serving egotitical blowhard for plagerizing Joan Peter's discredited book.
