Henry, how did my reply not reasonable in light of what Drury said? She is 
directly attributing the hype over weapons of mass destruction to a 
neo-conservative Straussian belief in a noble lie. So if I can cite not just 
one, but a myriad of non-Straussians who said exactly the same thing about 
weapons of mass destruction long before Bush came into office, then this 
seems like a reasonable critique of her analysis, don't you think?
