I absolutely agree with your take on this. I’ve always loved listening to Mark Steyn when he fills in for Rush. The man is so articulate, and simply brilliant. He has a unique ability to communicate wisdom with a large dose of wit. He went so off the rails with his Newt bashing, I made it a point not to listen to him for a few months. He’s lost some luster in my eyes, and it will take more time to for him to regain my complete respect.
Well put: he lost some luster.
I don’t like it when folks totally trash a good elected official or a media figure or writer for one faux pas. No one is perfect.
Having said that, Steyn kept at this for so long that he did drop a few points in my eyes.
