Blogosphere

I recently got involved in a couple discussion threads (here and here) over at Right in Montana. In doing so, it struck me how much blogging (from both sides, myself included) is really fairly juvenile. The main point of argument usually seems to be that the other side is stupid. Can you say "Nanny nanny poo poo?"

No wonder they make legislatures meet face to face.

Kathleen Parker had a nice piece that is somewhat related. My favorite quote from her article is this:

Kennedy, whose self-caricature is helping put political cartoonists out of business, has declared that all opponents to same-sex marriage are bigots. Right. And all opponents of state-mandated seat belts are child abusers. And anyone who disagrees with me is a moron. Next.

Well said.
