59. I'm inclined to trust him a lot more than someone who specialized in one-line arguments.
I've been reading Fukuyama and other foreign policy thinkers for 10 years so I've had plenty of time to think about their actual politics. Somehow I doubt you've ever read any of his output - you just know who he is in general terms and your objections have the tone of emotional reaction rather than rational argument. Perhaps you should try writing a few paragraphs explaining what you find objectionable about Francis Fukuyama, and examining his recent pronouncements (eg post 2001-2) as well as those from the mid to late 90s.

Basically you think He's a 'rat' because he was once signed up to something you object to, so now you have assumed that that reflects his true opinions for all time.
