Well, corruption and communism are both rotten, but I don't think all "isms" are automatically bad.

I only know Horowitz from having read one of his books, which came out in 1998, but I have no disagreements with anything in the entire book. Matter of fact, I have virtually every page dog-eared or otherwise marked.

I have seen that he's gone much farther to the right since that book, so perhaps I should read one of his newer ones to get a better grip. As I keep saying, I find little to agree with in the far right or the far left.

I'm sorry I brought him up. I'm also sorry I get involved in these political threads on the Sphere, which used to have more voices from the right, or center, like Tim Murphy, Alan Sullivan, Jennifer Reeser, and Bill Carpenter. Not much of a balance of thought anymore, regrettably.

I'll be extremely happy when Trump is finally ousted, which should happen long before his first term is over. I see that Al Green has called for his impeachment.
