A reader writes:

How is Mark Levin's post on Chester Finn's article a "sign of health"?  He simply links to Finn's article and labels it "a prescription for disaster." In other words, it simply amounts to trying to cast out another conservative because he has dared to challenge the far-right fringe that now dominates debate in conservative circles.

Finn's article was a sign of health and sanity, providing reassurance that "intelligent conservative" is not an oxymoron. Levin's post is a sober reminder that dysfunctionality and radical (non-conservative) ideology are still core components of today's so-called conservatism.
