Why does free republic keep posting this guys views. He is GOPe all the way. He has view that the Tea Party and conservatives should die, or sit in the back of the bus.

He is comfortable with Karl Rove, Crispy Cream , Rubio, Jeb Bush. He hates the guys we like Cruz, Lee, Jindle and our Lady Liberty Palin.

I don’t have interest in Mr. AS Sowell. Lets have a poll and see if anyone thinks he is relevant to Freepers.

OK. My vote is yes, he's relevant. As he has been for about four decades. I think a preference for current establishment candidates is a rather small disagreement when balanced against his body of work: Race and Economics, Knowledge and Decisions, Compassion vs Guilt, The Vision of the Anointed, Applied Economics, Black Rednecks and White Liberals, Race and Culture, Dismantling America, Intellectuals and Race - friends can agree to disagree on candidates and strategy, but these are foundational documents of the conservative movement. IMHO, of course.

What other right of center writers do you object to?

Are you suggesting Sowell be banned from FR?

Should we also burn all his books?

He is very relevant. Relevancy does not require that everyone agree with him all the time. I don’t see him as “in the camp” of the GOPe. Much of what he says is quite contrary to the elite GOP attitude.
