George F. Will On Summers and Innate Cognitive Differences

You know the left has gone too far when even George F. Will can score serious points against them. Although I used to take Will seriously, he--IMO--turned into pure conservative hack some years ago. These days he only scores serious points when the left leaves itself open--way open.

His take-down of Hopkins gets it just right I'd say. It's one thing to raise sensible questions about Summers's claims. It's another to allow one's reactions and criticisms to decend to the level of the theatrical and the hyperbolic. As does professor Hopkins.

If liberals tolerate this kind of stuff on their side of the fence, it's little wonder that otherwise reasonable people end up identifying more strongly with conservatism.
