Guess Who?

Which magazine declared that the Bush administration "alienated friends and allies all over the Islamic and Western world through [its] arrogance, hubris, and bellicosity."

The Nation? The New Republic? The American Prospect? The Washington Monthly?

Which writer for that magazine explained
That's the reason we came into existence: to argue against a massive invasion of Iraq and to argue against, if you will, the neoconservative takeover--the hijacking of American foreign policy.
Kevin Drum? Matthew Yglesias? Robert Reich? Molly Ivins?


No, that would be The American Conservative and one of its founding editors: Patrick J. Buchanan

Topsy-turvy times, eh? (Except that Buchanan's always been known as a protectionist.)
