  1. And, because Megan wanted to change things up a bit, Cato scholar Timothy B. Lee.

    Yup, that’ll add a lot of ideological variety.Report

    1. @Mike Schilling, Heh. But y’know Cato employs people with a very wide range of different views – I mean Tim Lee isn’t particulaly libertarian except on network-related issues, and Bjorn Lomborg is some kind of generic European Social Democrat. Dislike them if you want to, but they’re the least ideologically purist of all the major think tanks and they do deserve some credit for that.Report

        1. @Barry, Right, yes, of course. Everyone must be safely categorised or cognitive dissonance might cause our tiny brains to explode. Thank goodness for that.

          Or you could try learning what people actually believe (hint – to be a denialist you have to actually deny that something is happening) rather than labelling them. But that might be effort and cause thought – probably not worth the risk.Report

  2. Jason, yes, I should have clarified that, but I was actually clarifiying the invention claim in this post. I’m not accusing Sanchez of anything — he did state it was inadvertently improperly applied.Report

  3. In the end, the only difference is that some of those guys might be more honest than McMegan – which wouldn’t be hard. I still think that she shouuld get a Michael Kelly award for the post she wrote the day after HCR passed (the one which complained about the ‘tyranny of the majority’).Report
