I've only read a little of Heinlein, but loved what I've read so far. I was so young and dumb that I actually thought that the political messages in Starship Troopers were a great idea when I was like ten. More recently I read Stranger In a Strange Land which was amazing. Makes you wonder just what kind of a weird dude Heinlein was.
