No "Killer Instincts"?

Posted Tuesday, Feb. 26, 2002, at 4:28 PM ET

Who are these people?

Dear Margaret,

Paul Glastris wrote a piece in the Washington Monthly—I just looked at it this morning—that calls conservatives Robet Novak, Kate O'Beirne, and Jonah Goldberg "ideological warriors" but tags "center-left" commentators Juan Williams, E.J. Dionne, and you for not having the same "killer instincts."



What do you say to that? I'll check for your answer when I get finished with my lecture at Georgetown.

Best and Cheers!
Chris
