Quoting myself and saying how right I am

After several months of quoting and linking from this tiny space, I have my first piece up at National Review Online. It's a politically oriented (who would've thunkit?!) review of the film The Constant Gardener, the new picture from City of God provocateur Fernando Meirelles. The short of it is this: it’s a well made movie, but it’s also a political mess, advocating all sorts of nutty leftist flag-waving. As is to be expected, there are all sort of plant and garden related words. Hopefully, I’ve created some interesting verbal foliage, and you can decide for yourself over at NRO.
