Left-Right Alliance Against Empire?

The TAC symposium in the new issue of the magazine that I mentioned last week is now available online. Markos Moulitsas asks and answers a fair question in his contribution:

So where exactly are these anti-interventionist conservatives, willing to partner with progressives on rolling back the most ridiculous tenets of the absurd war on terror? Unfortunately, they don’t exist in any appreciable numbers.

To come back to Justin Logan’s post from a few days ago, the trouble is not just that there is not that much political or intellectual leadership on the right that opposes the warfare state, but that there are so very few self-identified conservatives who will support non-interventionist and antiwar conservative leaders.
