Lew Rockwell Interview With Naomi Wolf

I am not exaggerating, this is quite possibly the best interview I have ever heard in my life. (Just click on the link and then play it from within your browser.) During the show itself, Naomi Wolf comes to see why libertarians are so opposed to the IRS and the Department of Education. She (at least twice) says, "Oh my God, you are so right." Hint: it's not because we hate poor people.

  2. My respect for Naomi Wolf has increased dramatically. It isn't just about "because she now agrees with me", but because she has the intelligence, integrity and humility to listen and reassess in the face of the psychological pain of recognising previous unexamined beliefs. That takes real guts, real heart, and it is a rare and precious thing.

  3. bob, I told others the exact same thing. For serious, I think it might just be. The way Lew graciously handles her and manages to still treat her as the guest and worth hearing from, even after she makes her ignorance clear and peppers him with questions--openly, hungrily... it's really great. It gives me slight hope that there is hope--the left may be amenable, some of them. The right--not. Imagine a conservative being this receptive.
