Bawer on D'Souza

One of the smartest conservative critics of his generation, Bruce Bawer, reviews Dinesh D'Souza here. Money quote:

Shortly after "The Enemy at Home" came out, a blogger recalled that in 2003, commenting in the National Review on the fact that "influential figures" in America’s conservative movement felt "that America has become so decadent that we are 'slouching towards Gomorrah,'" D'Souza wrote:

"If these critics are right, then America should be destroyed."

Well, D'Souza has now made it perfectly clear that he's one of those critics; and the book he's written is nothing less than a call for America's destruction. He is the enemy at home. Treason is the only word for it.
