The Paradox of Andrew Sullivan
RI Blogger and occasional contributor to National Review, Justin Katz (Anchor Rising), has just placed his exquisit piece on Andrew Sullivan in Dust in the Light.
An excerpt to whet the proverbial appetite:
"...conservatives have generally appreciated his steadfast advocacy for a vigorous prosecution of the war on terrorism. The niche that he has claimed, however, has made Sullivan an especially influential advocate for a cause with which many of them do not agree: same-sex marriage. In his various expositions of the case for same-sex marriage over the years, Sullivan has trapped himself in a series of opportunistic contradictions — which may tell us something about the contradiction at the heart of his cause."
Catch the whole piece.
