Paroxyisms of the Left
Some educational and hilarious reading for a Sunday morning from the land of the Loony Left as viewed from a rather leftist perch itself. Lest one think that the nonsensical crackpot theories described here are just that, make note of the fact that the author of the book under review, one Naomi Klein, is not only a leading intellectual of the left and a prominent fixture upon the pages of The Nation and The Huffington Post. There are people who take this woman seriously. Nonetheless the reviewer at the New Republic does not only a decent job from an historical perspective but also has the temerity to point out some of the more egregious inconsistencies within the mainstream of our leftist brethren. As usual, do not attempt to drink coffee or anything else uninhalable whilst reading.
