Oh no.

Dean Barnett, 1967-2008.

I’ve linked to Dean’s work often here, and spoken to him several times. The last time we talked, he invited me to contribute to the Weekly Standard. He was one of the nicest, most genuine guys I’ve ever met, and an excellent writer. I’m stunned by this news.

Sorry to see you go so soon, Dean. You’ll be missed.
