There’s an Amir Taheri connection to the Alexis Debat scandal that I’m still puzzling out. (Here’s the puzzle: The Nixon Center is no neocon front organization. In fact, it was the site of a much-publicized split between neos and more realist conservatives in 2004. They’re about the last institution in Washington that would be pushing for war with Iran. Taheri, on the other hand, is a paid-up neoconservative in good standing.)

But just because they’re “realist” conservatives doesn’t mean they aren’t slightly insane frauds themselves.
Exhibit A: Robert S. Leiken. I admit to a twenty-five-year-old animus.

Gingrich is still a smart moron, I see.

Whereas small change requires dimes and quarters.
