I am, however, aggravated by how many of them seem actively to target large progressive sites that criticize Obama's policy blunders (Hamsher and Greenwald, e.g.) with <i>ad hominem</i> attacks in their comment threads. That was bad enough. Then a few of them, some of them authors of well-known sites apart from dKos, began to "investigate" Hamsher's and Greenwald's PAC, Accountability Now, no difficult task since it may be the world's most financially transparent org. These "investigations" reach no conclusions... there are none to reach... but have been published anyway, intended apparently as cheap-shot hit-pieces. This kind of thing is very unhealthy for the entire left-of-center blogosphere, both Democratic and progressive blogs, and it needs to stop.Steve Bateshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07587223243120009776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-872647804241988041.post-65990863554069479552010-04-02T13:38:57.514-05:002010-04-02T13:38:57.514-05:00I hate to say it, but the dKos crowd pissed me off...I hate to say it, but the dKos crowd pissed me off big time in its sell out to Obama care,Although Greenwald and Jane got very big time, they still, adhere to the old progressive meme, and for my money are among the only real liberal voices left.
