Let's name names...who on the Right do you consider top drawer? Since you have Andrew Sullivan on the list you might as well add Christopher Hitchens too.

Oh, people you hate, of course. I think David Brooks is going to turn into the best in the country. TWT, but I wouldn't bet against him...and I do not hate him...even agree with him sometimes. Will and Safire can still occasionally hit a homer, but they are getting old and strike out a lot. </i. Yep... <i>Mark Steyn would be the best except he turns out three or four a week now and is "hit or miss" because of it. I think Steyn is, as the Right says, "unserious" too often. Sullivan can do well on occasion. I read Sullivan daily and agree with him about 15% of the time. The writers at "National Review" are better than the "Weekly Standard" if you look at them as benchfuls. These are the choices? <g> To keep up good quality, I think two columns a week is the max. Agreed...which makes me admire the daily-posting Josh Marshalls of the world even more. I like Ledeen and Hanson very much. I am just covering people who write at least once a week. Aside from their neo-fascist tendencies, I too find myself in agreement with them about 15% of the time. Do you like the writings of Rep. Ron Paul?
