Yes there is Welsey Smith again promoting a right-wing conservative agenda masked as scientific inquiry. I guess it really isn't masked all that well since the article begins with "Members of the liberal media elite have become..."

Keep reading, and try actually dealing with the article's main content.

By the way, the "right-wing" Smith is a close friend and colleague of Ralph Nader, with whom he co-authored an excellent book on corporate law, titled No Contest.

I didn't say he was an idiot or anything but I have followed his ethics publications and he is take a VERY conservative approach. John Kerry and John McCain are good friends too but that doesn't make their political slant the same.

Nader shares many of Smith's "conservative" views on bioethics and euthanasia. Does that make Nader a "right-winger" to be dismissed without consideration?

In any case, would you care to comment on the substance of Smith's article, not just on him?
