I agree. Indeed, LGF is one of the few blogs I visit faithfully, that discusses contemporary events. From 2000 to 2008 many of (what some here would call) “lefty” blogs were unbearable, though there were a few (the more technical-subjected minded) that were tolerable.

Of greatest disappointment is what has happened to PJM, and many of their writers. I was hoping to find a blog that was more “wonky” than a place like LGF, but that wasn’t dominated by many of the traditional “liberal” bloggers and writers, where there could be deep dialogue between people of different opinions. However, since the election especially PJM has gone downhill (and now pushes ID proponents and even ‘nirthers.)

Even reading VDH’s latest entry over on PJM leaves me with a very cold feel - he’s becoming a bitter old man right in front of our eyes.

PJM is a wreck. Really unbelievable what’s happened to it.

It’s kind of interesting that liberals have come to dominate the blogosphere and the internet in the same way that the right dominates talk radio. It’s bad news for the right though in the long run if they don’t get it together.

VDH’s latest entry— is that the one where he’s telling some long story about his farm when he was 26?
(i have some opinions on that and on him, but i need a drink— brb)
