More on Tierney

Laurence Aurbach writes that part of the process of Fisking John Tierney has more than just begun and suggests:

See Mike Lewyn's:
The NY Times lies down for the sprawl lobby
and
Fisking Jane Galt

Joel Hirschhorn also weighs in and offers the very point with which I would have (should I ever do it) started my detailed eviscertation i.e. the observation that . Tierney connects

the national smart growth and New Urbanism movement only with city living. Anyone who is well read knows that innovative land developers are building new places in suburban areas which are mixed-use, higher residential density, and rich in neighborhood greenspace.

That's probably the most damning thing about Tierney's piece: it's not about "smart growth" (and how I do dislike that term) or new urbanism but about false assumptions.
