I don't really care what the author's political views are as long as the story is good. If their political views disrupt the flow of the story then I get annoyed, not because of their political ideology but because I want the story to progress. I've not read any John Ringo but will give his Posleen series a go. I'll also give the Ghost series a go and skip the rape scene if I find it too extreme. I saw some of the video interviews done with the authors on youtube which were interesting. I even saw the one with Tom Kratman, and was surprised that he wasn't even more right wing! He isn't even libertarian, and he gives some good reasons why he isn't, which were interesting. David Drake's interview was interesting too, although the audio for all of them was appalling.
