David Bromwich , a tenured professor of English at Yale, takes the Walt-Mearsheimer book as a platform from which to spout off conspiracy theories of malfeasance, “neoconservative” dual loyalty, and warmongering. It is doubtful that Bromwich has read the work of anyone he disparages. While freedom of speech should be sacrosanct on university campuses (as, equally, should be the freedom to criticize which professors too often conflate with McCarthyism), writings such as Bromwich’s reflect a quality of mind and a thought process which, unfortunately, bleeds into the academic process. (Among the subjects Bromwich teaches is “critical judgment”). Bromwich feels he need not support his arguments with evidence beyond the conventional wisdom of his fellow travelers, and he appears ignorant of policy and inter-agency processes. It is amazing what all those Yale Alumni Fund donations and $45,000 per year student tuition and expenses now subsidize.
