Blogs Worth A Click: The Political Addition
Monday, September 8, 2008 at 09:29PM I enjoy reading political blogs. Because I am a conservative, I enjoy reading blogs from both sides of the aisle. Conservatives are known for our ability to laugh at ourselves. After all, we did help elect our current president. We have learned to either laugh at ourselves or cry in shame. In our defense more conservative listen to Rush and NPR, that liberals listen to NPR and Rush.
With Sarah Palin running for president (by 2012 I hope), it is fun to be a conservative again. Watching the left explain why this outside the beltline, working, middle class mother of 5, having more experience balancing a budget that anyone else running, a son fighting overseas ( I’ve come to think if you are going to start an endless war at least one of your child should be requires to be in harms way. Maybe then the war will not be endless) isn’t qualified to be the first woman one breath away from the presidency is kinda fun. Perhaps they think only a woman who has slept with a former president qualifies. Where is Jennifer Flowers when you need her?
In no particular order:
Caledonian Comment: A British Blog that covers some American Politics. Interesting liberal writer, can be given to rants, hates the Monarchy
Copious Dissent: Well written, conservative blog with an unique perspective on political events
Polisicks: Funny, liberal, lots of video clips
First Left At the Door:. Very liberal, very funny, often insightful. Avoid of you are a conservative who can’t laugh at yourself.
Matt-Speak Not sure where he is politically. I get a kick out of his comments on anything and everyone.
I would love to add to this list as the election nears. Please feel free to leave your favorite political blog in a comment. The conservatives are unrepresented. I know we are out there some place.

Thanks for featuring Caledonian Comment.
Interesting .....thanks
Liberal............hmmm
Ranting..........NEVER - NEVER - NEVER !
All the best .
I'm delighted, if surprised, that you mention my favourite Caledonian Comment. Surprised only in that I thought he might be too British to be of interest to an American. I find he is a wonderful breath of fresh air. And I share his views on the monarchy, perhaps because I share his views :)
