re: #376 Last Mohican

I didn’t read it that way — I can’t imagine American right-winger having any fondness for Ahmedinejad. But it did strike me as a weird, uncharacteristic non sequitur for him to conclude a discussion of the Iranian election with a swipe at the left. He usually stays on topic.

Perhaps I jumped to that conclusion. I assumed this since the first part of last paragraph read: I realize that this pragmatic view shocks the tender sensibilities of left-wingers. The opposite of which would be: this pragmatic view will not shock the sensibilities of left-wingers. Like I said he’s entitled to his opinion.
