The amazing Taki Theodoracopulos has started a webzine, Taki’s Top Drawer, a development that is sure to make waves from one end of the blogosphere to the other. The first issue features contributions from conservative academic Paul Gottfried, the delightful Taki himself, writer F. J. Sarto, and myself. I’ll be writing a column twice a month, where I’ll be dealilng with some issues that Antiwar.com is just not the right venue for, although my first contribution, “National Socialism and National Greatness,” would fit in nicely here.
I can’t resist quoting from the first paragraph of Taki’s credo, “Why I Publish This Magazine”:
I want to shake up the stodgy world of so-called ‘conservative’ opinion. For the past ten years at least, the conservative movement has been dominated by a bunch of pudgy, pasty-faced kids in bow-ties and blue blazers who spent their youths playing Risk in gothic dormitories, while sipping port and smoking their father’s stolen cigars.
Now you know why I call him delightful….
