Are right-wing bullshit sources now acceptable?
I alerted on this post and it wasn't locked: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=115x308299

I posted some links in that thread documenting that the author (Robert Bryce) is a senior fellow at the right-wing conservative Manhattan Institute and was a featured speaker at the 2011 American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) Annual Meeting.

If you and the moderators don't know what ALEC is, sourcewatch has some good information: http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=American_Legislative_Exchange_Council


I hope you and the moderators are familiar with sourcewatch and prwatch.

1. We do not have a blanket rule against posting links to conservative sites.
Looks like the responses are doing a good job of explaining that the National Review is RW garbage.
