Emran-

To some extent, yes; in addition to the chapter on Friedman, there is another chapter on Richard Cohen of the Washington Post. Other than that, I mostly go after Krauthammer, William Bennett, and a fellow named Robert Stacy McCain, with a few others thrown in here and there but to much lesser extents.

Incidentally, I was not able to use all of my notes on Friedman due to length. I will have to write another book, I guess.

Thanks Barrett,
I am sorry for not following your blog carefully and hence the somewhat naive query;
Do you also examine apart from Friedman other 'liberals' in the leadup to the Iraq
war?

Best,
Emran

Hi, Emran-

Thanks for getting in touch. I've forwarded your e-mail to the publisher so
they'll get you a review copy. It should be out in August. Let me know if
you have any other questions.
