the only thing i got wrong here is that i describe lowry as “crypto-racist” www.nationalreview.com/corner/jamel...
Even by Jamelle Bouie’s standards, this is low and dishonest.
Lowry and co’s use of “race hustler” and its variants is every bit as vile as the slur for which it provides cover.
Yep he is just a plain old racist. The old South plantation nostalgia kind of racist.
Should’ve used his proper description as an ‘actual racist.’
Here is a link to the review of Lowry's book for those who are interested - www.foreignaffairs.com/guest-pass/r...
Charles King reviews The Case for Nationalism by Rich Lowry.
We need people like Rich Lowry in out public life for the word “tendentious” to have any future at all.
Vidal Gore made a very similar error regarding Buckley. You're in good company
Feel like Rich Lowry should be careful to not Streisand Effect himself after he already dropped the Hard R just yesterday. Or not, I do love seeing the man dig a grave. 🫶🏼💀
Hey now! Lowry is one of the leading intellectuals of the conservative movement! Of course he didn't say "that" word. He said "nigraments", and obscure term that means "pet-eating dark-sninned savages".
his boos mean nothing, we've seen what makes him cheer
I appeared on an episode of The Kudlow Report on CNBC with Rich Lowry about a decade ago (2013) when he was flacking his (entirely forgettable) book on Lincoln. If Mr. Lowry were twice as smart as he actually is, he would still only be half as smart as he thinks he is.
