Interesting post. I wasn't familiar with him before reading this. He is actually a Somebody in academia: a professor at Columbia.
He kind of wants us to believe that he doesn't have any political leanings. But I can tell you, he is a conservative just as I am a conservative. Not perhaps the same flavor of conservative, but he is. Anyone who writes as he does without bending the knee to the reigning orthodoxy is a conservative, whether he thinks so or not.
