Gene Lyons: blogosphere not as radical as pundits think

Among the blogs I read, there’s no equivalent of the authoritarian impulses, intellectual dishonesty and rote chanting of the GOP party line that characterizes Limbaugh and his imitators on the right. Partly, that’s because most are written by educated individuals who take pride in winning arguments without cheating, and to whom party orthodoxy is anathema. In a saner climate, many wouldn’t be called left-wing at all.

1. punditheads are very afraid
of the blogosphere and will say anything to attack the messengers.

bushites' MO's and SOP's are transparent as their lies covering bush's ass the last 7 years.

And, yeah, why aren't the punditshitheads complaining about limpballs?
