George
> Bush, ancient Greece and a dead German thinker," with a cartoon of Strauss
> reading a book of Plato, while dangling a puppet of George Bush from his
> left hand. It begins:
> "From the moment George Bush moved into the White House, the search has
been
> on for the man (or woman) who is pulling his strings. Is the puppeteer
Dick
> Cheney or Donald Rumsfeld? Karl Rove or Condoleezza Rice? Big Oil or
> old-time religion? Each has had their spell in the spotlight. But now all
> are forgotten in the fuss about the most surprising suspect of all: Leo
> Strauss, a political philosopher who died in 1973 and wrote such
> page-turners as {Xenophon's Socratic Discourse}.
> "In March the {Executive Intelligence Review}, an eccentric web site run
by
> Lyndon LaRouche, posted a profile of Strauss entitled Fascist Godfather of
> the Neo-Cons. You might have thought that the article's overheated
language
> and conspiracy-mongering would have killed the argument. But since then a
> flotilla of respectable publications, from the New Yorker to Le Monde,
have
> jumped on the bandwagon. Who on earth was Leo Strauss?"
> The article briefly reviews Strauss's history and his nest of students in
> power today, downplaying the importance of both. It then asks: "So is the
> flap about Strauss a pointless waltz? Arguably, Mr. LaRouche and the New
> Yorker have been looking in the wrong place. The true impact of all these
> Straussians walking the corridors of power is not really to do with
telling
> noble fibs in diplomacy; it has to do with domestic policy."
> The key is that Strauss was virtuous! "The rise of the Straussians
suggests
> that American conservatism has shifted its focus from liberty to virtue."
> Ronald Reagan and Newt Gingrich were libertarian and against
big-government,
> but "Mr. Bush is an intensely religious man who has no qualms about using
> big government to improve people's behavior. Strauss was an agnostic, but
he
> also stressed the cultivation of personal virtue, and his followers
(perhaps
> traducing him, and certainly outraging Plato) have argued that organized
> religion is a necessary buttress of civilization. Strauss's paternalist
side
> would have warmed to the way that Mr. Bush has expanded the Department of
> Education, has started promoting marriage through the Department of Health
> and Human Services and has toughened America's drug policies. Straussians
> such as Mr. Walters and Mr. Kass have helped to clothe Mr Bush's Christian
> instincts in the non-religious language of moral philosophy and practical
> policy."
> And, finally, the Economist reports that Europeans can take pride in the
> fact that, "Despite all their bile about Old Europe, the American right
has
> repeatedly found its inspiration in European thinkers. A few years ago, it
> was an Austrian libertarian called Friedrich Hayek. Now it is a German Jew
> who regarded ancient Greece as the fountain of all wisdom."
> This hardly hides their panic at the thought that Americans have "found
