I am sorry I mistook you for someone who used to oblige me by linking Napolitano's posts here. Some of these do occasionally pop up on my phone, as configured by a passing nephew, but I seem unable to transfer them here.
Anarchism is a perfectly virtuous doctrine, and from his long, long prologues we know that the judge is simply a conservative who wants a government that will obey the Constitution. Many of the most effective critics of the US power are of that kind. His great merit is that he provides a platform and a hearing for people who are excluded from mainstream media with its distorting lens. As much can be said in praise of the rascal Piers Morgan, tho he is perfectly unvirtuous
I think that Doctorow may have suggested that successful drone strikes against such as the oil refinery a Samara has shifted the balance of warfare, offsetting any gains on the battleground. That may be what made Ritter - another libertarian conservative - erupt into calling Doctorow a "liar" and western propagandist "of the worst sort". (Of course anything that implies Russian defeat, true or false, might stiffen those who want to prolong this dreadful war by supplying more missiles to the Ukrainians)
Ritter was due to appear on Judge on the fifth but I can find no sign of it. Trying to get to the bottom of this I came upon this link

but I dont know what will appear here. The melancholy fact is that I may by tomorrrow have quite forgotten that i have so laboriously written all this, but I hope to keep a lookout
