David Irving article by Michael Barone

I was surprised that your newspaper would print such a jerk knee article. How can an Austrian Court be bound by the First Amendment to the U. S. Constitution? This is the kind of article I would expect to find in USA Today or other publications aimed at dimwits.

Actually, I enjoy David Irving's books, particularly Hitler's War for its fresh perspective, but do not make the mistake of believing it is unbiased history.

I would also point out that Shakespeare's "Richard the Third" is politically motivated pack of lies, but still great literature.
