A friend of mine loaned me his password to read the subscription-only continuation of the Pinker/Lakoff feud on The National Review's website. You're not really missing much. But then
memegarden posted a link to Geoffrey Nunberg's commentary on this flame war (which I haven't read yet) from a section of the TNR site called Open University. This is a non-subscription weblog for academic research-oriented political topics, and looks to be pretty interesting, so I added its feed to Google Reader and have already added a couple other posts to my shared items page: articles about the disproportionality of the Senate and gerrymandering.
