In my daily scanning of the assembled blog entries at PoliticalWire, I generally take some time to read the right-leaning blogs as well as the left. There are often some good stories that are being covered there that the lefties are neglecting.
The thing about the way the entries are shown on the screen is that there is the headline, and then the first few sentences or more of the entry, and at the bottom, they list which blog it came from.
The past few days, I've been noticing more starkly, that every time I read an opening that sounds like complete and utter GOP-talking-point bullshit, it is from Power Line. I'm finding I can can "call it" before I see it. On the other hand, Outside The Beltway is the most reasoned of the right-leaning blogs I see regularly, usually talking sense in the face of political talking points from both sides. Sometimes I agree, and sometimes I disagree, but I can always respect their argument.
The Power Line guy is an asshat.
