OK, so as you have probably noticed,

my blog posting frequency in the last six months has dropped off drastically. This is mostly due to a significant reduction in my web-surfing time, some intentional and some not. As a result, I am getting ever further behind in my monitoring of my favorite RSS feeds. Why am I telling you this? Because it's my excuse for posting on old stuff. Here's an interesting post on the increasing influence MoveOn wields in the Democratic party, and why it can only be bad news for the left. It harmonizes quite nicely with my liberal-disgusted-with-the-Democratic-party song.
