In Ethics and the Orator, Gary A. Remer disagrees, offering the Ciceronian rhetorical tradition as a rejoinder. He argues that the Ciceronian tradition is based on practical or 'rhetorical' politics, rather than on idealistic visions of a politics-that-never-was--a response that is ethically sound, if not altogether morally pure.
