I’ve been getting a decent amount of traffic from CNN.com on my post “Classified B.S.” CNN shows blogs linking to their articles. I love the idea.
Anyhow, I got into a comment-fest with a new reader. I thought I’d share one of my replies on the front page.
Jake,
Thanks for discussing this. It’s a good dialogue.
Now, onto my objection to your use of the word “liberal.” You labeled me as liberal from the very beginning. Did you happen to browse around more than one post on my blog before jumping to this conclusion?
The two-party system is horrible. Too many people like you feel the need to line up, lockstep with the party. So, whenever you see someone embrace an idea that differs from your party’s views, you dismiss them as liberal.
I have the unfortunate pleasure of seeing good ideas from conservatives and liberals. Unfortunately, the Republican brand can’t claim small government, low taxes anymore. The tax we’ve paid for a giant mistake of a war is the rapid devaluation of the dollar. At least liberals are honest when they tax you.
I don’t understand why every Republican isn’t absolutely furious with how things are.
Bush IS the worst president ever.
Look at you throwing your bold code up in our grills.
My bold letters really get the point across better than using basic CAPS. I almost went as far as underlining the bold letters, but I didn’t want you to have to change your pants after reading my comment. Bold + Underline = Very Intimidating.
Amen brotha.
I was never a big fan of Martin Van Buren. What a douchebag.
Filmore was just asinine though. With his fancy speeches and such.
Don’t forget about Zachary Taylor. He was way out of place in 1849 with his 21st century name.
Are you still going to not watch CNN considering the fact that their website is driving traffic to your site?
I read CNN.com a lot. They are still getting my eyes one way or the other.
CNN.com > CNN
Don’t have to sort through the TV BS to get to the good stuff.
Wolf Blitzer’s beard and speech patterns put me into a trance, and I don’t catch any of the stories. Total waste of time.
