In my humble and honest opinion, the best writers tooday are - in order - Mark Steyn, Victor Davis Hanson, Thomas Sowell, Ann Coulter, Walter Williams, and Charles Krauthammer. Mark Steyn is by far heads and shoulders above everyone. He is one of those writers who make it seem easy and clever. His mastery and knowledge of words, events, and his turn of phrase is simply outstanding and excellent. VDH is not as witty and neither is Sowell, but both have immense knowledge of the subject they are writing about. In military terms, while the first three are finese professionals - the snipers - Ann is the nuclear warhead, scorching the earth. Williams looks at events in how it effects us economically while Charles Krauthammer sees the mental disorder of events.
Good lineup. Add Dennis Prager for consistent moral clarity
