  • David Horowitz spent the first part of his life in the world of the Communist-progressive left, a politics he inherited from his mother and father, and later in the New Left as one of its founders. When the wreckage he and his comrades had created became clear to him in the mid-1970s, he left. Three decades of second thoughts then made him this movement's principal intellectual antagonist. "For better or worse," as Horowitz writes in the preface to this, the first volume of his collected conservative writings, "I have been condemned to spend the rest of my days attempting to understand how the left pursues the agendas from which I have separated myself, and why."

    I'm listening to this speech six years after, and it's as pertinent today, maybe even more. Horowitz the sage.

    Hearing Ben speak at the end makes me believe that there is still hope for this once great and noble country.

    Mr. Horowitz is brilliant. He dismantles any leftist argument with common sense and reason. His book - Radicals- should be required reading. I liked his chapter on Chris Hitchens. Very important issues are brought up. God bless.

    I would love a David Horowitz Vs. Noam Chomsky debate. Horowitz would have Chomsky for breakfast.

    Amazing to see a hard left activist become aware of the dangers from communism.

    I use to be a liberal (hey, I was in my early 20's - I didn't know anything about REAL life!), but I'm a smarter and better person now.

    It's strange that numerous freshman university textbooks - the St. Marten's Guide to Writing to name one of the most popular - provide a template for op/ed essays that requires the writer to explore both sides of the argument. When did they throw that out?
