Blog Highlights: Sadly, No!
Next to Crooks and Liars, my favorite liberal blog is Sadly, No!. It has almost no practical use whatsoever, and perhaps that’s why I like it so much. Instead of attacking the most influential conservative pundits, this blogger manages to find the most outlandish wingnuts out there and tear them to pieces. What makes the blog interesting isn’t the way he takes them down — that’s just too easy to do — but his unique talent for actually finding these whackjobs.
Perhaps my favorite post is this one, in which Sadly, No! finds an editorial that argues that Brokeback Mountain is hurting the war on terror (“You can’t fight Islamism with gay cowboys”).
There’s the blogs that you scan through every day, and then there’s the blogs you consider yourself a loyal reader to. This is one of those blogs I make sure to read in its entirety.
