Surely, chutch, with your extensive knowledge of things paleoconservative, you know that Chronicles magazine was founded by Leopold Tyrmand.

I'm curious to know how you explain the late Mr Tyrmand, seeing as he was Jewish. Did someone forget to tell him that he was organizing hordes of xenophobic anti-semites around his banner?

This is most curious, chutch, and I think that only someone as well versed on the underlying nazism of paleoconservatism can explain this mystery. Please enlighten us with your wisdom.

Yeah, but when Fleming and Francis took over, it took its turn for the worse- I believe Mr. Frum pointed that out in his article.

Tyrmand died suddenly in 1985. His successor, Thomas Fleming, shortened the magazine's name to Chronicles and redirected its attention from cultural critique to ideological war.

Fleming was in at least one way a poor choice for the role of paleoconservative ideologist-in-chief. He is the very opposite of a systematic, deliberate thinker: a jumpy, wrathful man so prone to abrupt intellectual reversals that even some of his friends and supporters question his equilibrium. But Fleming proved himself a nervy and imaginative editor. He recruited Samuel Francis as a columnist and collaborator, and Francis was a man nobody could accuse of inconsistency.

Obviously, you seem to ignore the fact that Mr. Frum addressed the point you raised. Maybe you need to brush up on reading comprehension.
