Charles Krauthammer, from the cover of The Point of It All (Crown Forum)

Are you Krauthammer’d out? I thought I was — until I was asked to review his posthumous collection. And then I was re-Krauthammered, in a big way. I have written about him in my Impromptus, here. These are notes on Krauthammer’s life, thought, and nature. Some of them are personal. Anyway, you have a potpourri, almost a Krauthammerpalooza.


I’d like to add one thing here in the Corner. I heard WFB greet two men as “my leader”: one was George Will, the other Charles.
