I Kid You Not

by Dr. Cashmere

Maybe this has drawn attention elsewhere, but I haven't seen it. Here's the "acknowledgments" page of David Mamet's new book, in its entirety:

I am very much indebted to the works of Thomas Sowell, Paul Johnson, Frederich Hayek and Milton Friedman, and to those of Richard Wright and Eric Hoffer.

Well, I drew attention (such as it was) to it.

Perhaps the book had already gone to press by June, but I hope Mamet has since noticed that Mr. Sowell has compared Obama's financial restitution settlement with BP to Nazi tactics: http://voices.washingtonpost.com/plum-line/2010/06/palin_tells_followers_to_read.html

Where exactly does Milton Friedman fit in?
