Rachman's World of Hurt

Earlier this week on the home page there was a piece by Gideon Rachman of the Financial Times on the prospects for a "world government." It was also picked up by Drudge and it set off a firestorm of emails to Rachman.

From these emails, Rachman draws some rather harsh conclusions about a cross-section of America. Having not read his inbox, I can't tell if they're fair or not. Some of the blog reaction has been rough, though.

In Rachman's defense, I read and understood his column to be, as he said, an "one the one hand, on the other hand" kind of analysis and not a Utopian paean to a global government.
