Charles Krauthammer, I already miss him.
Fox News, where he told his truths as a proud American Jew with a different view.
If you bash Fox and refuse to watch it, you missed one the great commentators of all time.

I dont care who he was affiliated with, and it shouldn't be brought up... it just sucks that a human being has to go through that.

That guy has been through a lot and persevered. Pretty amazing.

 

[Stevenson]

He was great. And even more impressive, you never really knew he was disabled unless you happened to catch a glimpse. Smart, opinionated.

Very true.

I will always remember his name as the first (only?) person in the media who wrote an editorial advocating torture. I think it was in Newsweek, in the 90s. It was so terrifying that other writers, afraid for their lives, pretended it hadn't happened. It indicated the direction of the government to come under Bush/Cheney's massive tortures. A generation later, there still have been practically no other writers who have written the same. (None that I've seen, but there must have been a couple during the horrors.)

I've read more than a few. They're not American MSM writers. But writers all the same. The American counterpoints actually go far over to the Nozick side on the ethics of it (and it would not surprise me at all if you had a copy of Anarchy, State and Utopia on your nightstand). But rest-of-world? Yeah, not so much.

What is the Nozick side? I've never heard that term before.

Also, what is this publication Anarchy, State and Utopia. I've never heard of that, either.

It was a 1970s book by Nozick that garnered attention with a leftist title, but disappointed with a conservative/libertarian viewpoint. No, I didn't read it, but it was widely mentioned/plugged in the news media.

So, Nozick is a person. Now, who is Nosick?
