I don't think that you can be a "classical liberal" and a "paleoconservative" at the same time. Perhaps whoever chose the latter was looking for "neoconservative", which is very different. I don't think there's any argument that Flynn was a "classical liberal" though. James James 03:15, 3 January 2006 (UTC)
I'm bothered by writing like this: "In 1944, he wrote a classic and prophetic critique of the American drift toward statism...." which seems pretty blatantly POV. We should provide a summary of the book, not endorse its message. -- Christofurio ( talk) 14:27, 23 July 2009 (UTC)
looks like the foregoing problem has been fixed, but speaking of POV, this: "The Pearl Harbor 'they let it happen' thesis would remain on the far fringes of FDR-hating right-wing fanatics until suspicions of a similar plot in 9/11 brought it back to attention and, in fact, plausibility." really? in fact? I don't think so. Clocke ( talk) 04:22, 13 December 2015 (UTC)
