The “New Left” has come up several times, here, recently, and J. Wesley’s review of Ron Radosh’s book puts me in mind of an longish panel discussion during which Ron Radosh and Fred Siegel, both New Left escapees, managed to quibble very interestingly. As Michael Ledeen, one of my heroes among public intellectuals, was present and commented at some length; and as Jonah Goldberg’s essential book Liberal Fascism was the subject of the discussion, how could I fail to post this? It’s quite long, so use your time wisely.
