I forgot to mention: Michael Ledeen and I debated Pat Buchanan and Bob Novak today as planned. How did it go? Michael and I agree that any debate we get through without a pie in the face is a successful debate. (I actually don’t so much object to a pie in the face – if it’s really good pie.)

Seriously, I thought we had an interesting dialogue and managed to disagree in an agreeable way. (Thanks are due to Bay Buchanan who put this together.)

Most of the points I made in the debate are in my latest Scripps column.

Also, CSPAN recorded it, so it should be available soon for you couch potatoes who were too lazy to go to Tyson’s Corners in the rain on a Saturday.
