John Derbyshire Goes Over the Side at National Review

National Review has fired John Derbyshire.

I'm not sure whey he wrote the essay, about having a race talk with his kids, but he set off a huge debate all over the Internet. Forget Trayvon Martin. A conservative speaks truth to leftist power and that's it ... off the plank.

See: "John Derbyshire Cut Loose at National Review..."

And for some additional late-night reading, see Robert Stacy McCain, "Profiles in Narcissism: Charles Johnson Blinded by His Own Self-Righteousness."

Everybody I know with kids has had "the talk" with them.
Derbyshire made the mistake of telling the truth, which nobody wants to hear.

Randall, with all due respect:

Ya mean, No Obama hugging Liberal wants to hear.
