"Drying Snot"
A little over a year ago I became an NOR subscriber, and have read much of every issue since. What amazes me about your magazine is that, while I very often share your point of view, after reading it I always feel the need to take a bath. The sarcastic vitriol burns and your self-righteous denunciations cling like drying snot. Cancel my subscription.

We would be wise to re-evaluate our allegiances even to noble causes and their leaders, to our pet programs and favored personalities, lest we be cast into disconsolation later.
