Salon.com reprints a FrontPage story from David Horowitz. Strange bedfellows!

I think Horowitz underestimates what’s happening right now, but his fundamental point is reasonable enough:

… while it’s reasonable to be unhappy with a Democratic administration and even concerned because the Democrats are now a socialist party in the European sense, we are not witnessing the coming of the antichrist. A good strategy for political conflicts is to understand your opponent first — not to underestimate him, but not to overestimate him either.

True enough. On the other hand, a few trillion dollars put to poor use can do a lot of damage, even if the guy overseeing the project isn’t the Antichrist. (And who said he was?)
