#1 So did I, when it still had integrity.

#2 Steve, bravo. Sullivan is a shameless and irrelevant personality. I would not go so far as to call him an intellectual since he is really just a charlatan. Whatever his education and background I find him just a cry baby with a wet finger constantly prowling the wind of outrageous rumor and slander. He has to write his tripe here since if he went back to the UK and did the same has here he would bankrupt his publisher do to the libel laws. As a Catholic, he makes me puke - but then Mugabe is a Catholic also.

#3 So what's the line as to when the good Dr. Steve actually hears back from the Atlantic?

#4 I used to read The Atlantic cover to cover but let my subscription expire a couple years ago when the amount of leftist hooey and propaganda began to overwhelm the thought-provoking content. I still flip through it in the local library looking for the occasional tidbit - an excerpt from Mark Bowden's "Guests of the Ayatollah comes to mind. It would be almost worth it to subscribe again so I could cancel over that scurrilous McCain issue and the editor's lame-ass response.

#7 A good rant, Dr. Steve. I wonder how many writers in the Atlantic stable will soon have to find another way to earn a living.

#8 Don't hold your breath waiting for them to call, Dr. Steve. You won't look good in that shade of deep blue.

#11 If you used swear words when cancelling, they don't call back. I know from experience.
