Freeper LS could probably tell us what the makeup of this crowd is.

At least Zinn isnt on it.

I know several: Walter Berns, as far as I know, isn't even a historian. He's a political scientist who does history.

Both Dalleks are on it, both are huge libs. Brooks Simpson of ASU is a lib. Brinkley is what might be called a "conservative Dem," but a Bush hater.

The only conservatives I recognized were William Allen (if it's who I think it is, he is a presidential "historian," but I think he's also a political scientist---but a Washington scholar, nonetheless) and Walter McDougall. McDougall is a terrific historian, but quirky and Libertarian, so I doubt he'd like Bush even for his foreign policy. A few others I know and THINK they are libs, but don't want to accuse them unfairly.

PS. I'm not on it, Burton Folsom of Hillsdale isn't on it; Paul Kengor isn't on it. Those are three whom I think might rank Bush higher.
