Personally, I thought it was an excellent interview.
Don has also written some outstanding pieces for ARI
Here's a sampling:

Personally, I thought the interviewer was an idiot. He claims that
Obama's administration is national socialist ie. Nazi, what a joke!!!
> Personally, I thought the interviewer was an idiot.
Gee, Tiny Tim...the genius.
Fred Weiss
So, faulty facts, is Obama's admin. Nazi or not? White flag or dodge, what's
it going to be?
I know this will be hard for you to follow little one but I was
referring to the fact that you are not in a position to judge anyone
else's intelligence. I wasn't offering to debate you. You are far too
stupid to argue with.
For example, have you figured out yet what "average life expectancy"
is? When I asked you that question a few weeks ago on alt.philosophy
- after being stunned by the stupidity of your comments - you suddenly
and conveniently disappeared.
Or here, when my primary purpose was to let people hear Don in an
interview, you latch onto something the interviewer said and you
expect me to defend *him*. But that's typical of how you operate.
You're a disgusting little lizard who should just be ignored.
Fred Weiss
I'd characterize Obama's domestic policy initiatives as fascistic,
rather than socialistic. He seems to prefer government control inside
a nominally private property framework to outright nationalization,
which is characteristic of fascism. Does that make his administration
Nazi? Depends on what you mean. In a concrete-bound sense, obviously
not -- there are no swastika in evidence, he doesn't seem to give a
damn about the Sudetenland, etc.

Haa ha ha. That's cute fweddy, you pretending to be in a position to judge
the intelligence of others. Hey stupid, I wasn't looking for an argument or
debate. I asked a clear question that you've dodged, as usual.

Better than you can figure out population densities.

Not quite, I pointed out the fact that the article you cited claimed that
the av. life exp. was thirty, yet most males, per the same article, got
married at thirty. You never responded. Do try and keep up.

Is that a dodge or a white flag? It's so hard to tell with you .

You're a dumb-ass randroid who waves his little ideological flag and cries
like a baby when his idiocy is pointed out.
Oboyama is trying to implement socialism, on a
national scale; which part of 'national socialist' is
throwing you?.

LOL, go back to playing with your building blocks kid.
Don was one of my favorites on HPO, especially when he disagreed with
me. The trait I like most about him is his intellectual integrity.
Some time ago when I noticed he'd hooked up with ARI I wrote him a
note congratulating him on his new gig. He replied with his usual
grace.

....and disagreed with me, too. A lot.
Intellectual integrity definitely, a very deep rooted commitment to
"first-handedness".
Of course you in particular would respond to that because you're a lot
like that yourself. :-)

He's also now engaged to a lovely woman.
Are you all now aware that Bradley Harrington is now getting his
columns regularly published in newspapers? He has posted some of them
here.
