A Smackdown on Fukuyama
Charles Krauthammer takes exception to Fukuyama's characterization of his statements that led to Fukuyama's break with the neocons.
Update: Apparently there are others who are not fans of Fukuyama. Just keep following the links.
I have to say that I am not sure what to think of Fukuyama. I tried to read the Last Man and the End of History a couple of years ago. I couldn't get through it. The combination of what to me was gobblygook (I have not taken any philosophy classes so he lost me in all the diaelectics) and that he was blinding wrong based on the passage of time (post 9/11)prevented me from getting through it.
