Besides what Jonah points out, I resent the implication we refuse to publish things we don’t agree with. First of all, yes, we are completely free to publish what we want to and I reject near countless pieces all the time, for all sorts of reasons (our cup, mercifully, runeth over with people who want on–more than our space and manpower can handle, some days). And, I confess to being a tyrant on some topics (culture of life–I plead guilty) where I humbly think the other side’s argument is just everywhere. I know that one piece on NRO buying the mainstream or Left line can often do more to help the side we disagree with than 100 well-argued pieces in support of our side of the argument. I’m in no one’s tank, but we are opinionjournalism, and I am not deaf to those considerations–which is well within the point of our existence. We’re not standing athwart history yelling stop in a vaccuum.

That said, here’s Doug Bandow opposing the Iraq war on our site, for one for instance.

I should add, too, even on those life issues: Here’s Ron Bailey on NRO, who debated Princeton’s Robert George and Patrick Lee on stem cells.

NR and NRO are not a subsidiary of anyone’s campaign, and anyone who reads us knows that.
