I never hated Douthat - I think he’s often simpleminded but if the NYT needs to have someone representing today’s conservative movement, Douthat is as good as any. Way better than the bad-faith propagandists WSJ and WaPo trot out: McArdle, Thiessen, Hewitt, Noonan - liars, ex Koch employees, radio propagandists, and all simpleminded to boot.

But Douthat has really shot out to outer space on this one. What the heck is he thinking??!
