Barone is a good analyst, but he kind of made me sick with his column a few weeks ago when he said he thinks society ought to celebrate sodomy by endorsing homosexuality and the destruction of biblical marriage.
I share your feelings. Barone is an enigma. He is analitical, he is mostly conservative and he is an all around great guy that most Freepers would like. But he is not a Christian. I remember reading that he is an agnostic or perhaps an athiest which I think explains his views on biblical marriage.
