Here’s a curveball for left-wingers who think the Fox News Channel is always and everywhere a lackey for George Bush’s neocon war machine. Check out the dust-cover blurbs of the book from the Independence Institute titled “Opposing the Crusader State: Alternatives to Global Interventionism” by Robert Higgs and Carl Close. The last one comes from Judge Andrew Napolitano of FNC:

If you want to know why making the world safe for democracy is both foolhardy and impossible, read Opposing the Crusader State. Here in a nutshell is the best scholarship available on how our warrior governments went wrong and why their non-defensive wars have diminished, rather than enhanced, our freedoms.

On the book’s cover, the Judge is just a James Bovard blurb away from Larry Korb of Hillary’s Center for American Progress. He’s the top blurb at the think tank’s website.
