Over at Instapundit , in the course of calling David Frum a Gloomy Gus, Glenn Reynolds writes :
conservatives and libertarians should be feeling a lot better than they did a few months ago, as the Obama aura is dissipating much faster than even the most optimistic might have expected.
Is this right? I know that, in recent days, I have been more optimistic about the turning-back of at-least the worst ideas for health-care reform and cap-and-trade, but do others feel the same?
We launched the First Things 2023 Year-End Campaign to keep articles like the one you just read free of charge to everyone.
Measured in dollars and cents, this doesn't make sense. But consider who is able to read First Things: pastors and priests, college students and professors, young professionals and families. Last year, we had more than three million unique readers on firstthings.com.
Informing and inspiring these people is why First Things doesn't only think in terms of dollars and cents. And it's why we urgently need your year-end support.
Will you give today?
