I was puzzled to learn that NRO had given Dinesh D’Souza a four-part series to further explain a thesis about which his full-length book obviously hasn’t convinced many people. Yet, I was curious. But in installment one, he dismisses thoughtful and erudite critics Victor Davis Hanson, Roger Kimball, Scott Johnson, Robert Spencer and Peter Berkowitz as “the angry men of the Right.” And, without a trace or irony, the title of the four-part series claims it is the mind of other conservatives, not D’Souza’s, that is closed — after all, what open-minded person could possibly disagree with D’Souza?

I won’t be tuning in for installments two through four.
