Flap remembers back in the 80′s when Rusher was the Publisher of the National Review and wrote a letter to Rusher about his book,  The Rise of the Right. To Flap’s surprise I received a handwritten note in reply.

I understand he always handled his own correspondence.

On Amazon.com:

• How to Win Arguments
• The Making of the New Majority Party
• The Rise of the Right,
• The Ambiguous Legacy of the Enlightenment
• Short Course on South Africa

An archive of his Townhall columns is here and the Claremont Institute here.

The conservative movement and I mourn his passing.

The subhead says it all:

A Letter to Sarah Palin

Stay home and do your job and your homework.

Please Jonah and National Review. Why don’t you just tell this “unqualified” Alaska Governor woman to just stay home and bake cookies.

Sure, you guys want Mitt Romney – and why that is – is due to the fact he has pumped money into your fledgling magazine and your careers, but sheesh. If Palin wants to run now or later – let her do it her way – even with all of the carping from the LEFT and Romney right.

I was disappointed in the National Review during the 2008 GOP Presidential season and continue to be. As a conservative voice of reason you have lost your way.
