Niall Ferguson really, really likes to gay bash John Maynard Keynes

Niall Ferguson has had a terrible last 10 years.  He was a strong proponent of invading Iraq and pines for us to stay indefinitely in Afghanistan.  He was a Romney supporter who wrote an anti-Obama screed in Newsweek that demonstrated his contempt for facts.  He was an advisor to Senator McCain’s campaign for the presidency.  Because of his record of getting every important policy issue wrong he was paid a great deal of money to speak to an “alternative investment” conference that began, with no small irony, on May Day.  Ferguson was presenting his thesis that the West has become “degenerate.”  He certainly proved that point about himself.
