Can I just take a moment to thank and congratulate Andy McCarthy? He has been doing vigilant, tireless work in defense of American liberty and truth. First, as a prosecutor. Now, as a writer. And the New York Times notices this morning with a prominent profile on Andrew C. McCarthy. And clearly many have noticed. Read the piece yourself. You’ll see that Andy — unsurprisingly — holds up against his critics quite well. Live long and continue to prosper, my friend! So that, as Bill Bennett said this morning in a speech, the book on America’s sleep during this war we’re in never has to be written.

BTW, nice scarf!

Finally, if you haven’t read his Willful Blindness, it is one of the most important books written about this war we’re in. It may be the most important.
