The top story on drudge right now is

"BROKAW SLAMS ROMNEY: DON'T USE MY REPORTING IN YOUR AD!"

I guess Drudge lost all the Romney supports now ?

Are you unable to parse truth from lies and now you just want to hear whatever is pleasing to your ears?

Maybe it's about sending a message that these sites take a single side at their own risk?

I was a big fan of Townhall, but during the South Carolina primary it became obvious to me that they were outing themselves as anti-Gingrich.

I'm not necessarily taking the side of one candidate over the other, but I'm disappointed that a site that claims to represent conservative commentary would move to such a one-sided blogging experience.

You’ve already found it. FR is about all that’s left. Even Human Events soils itself by still keeps Ann Coulter around. Every major “conservative” news/opinion site except FRee Republic has sold its soul to the GOP establishment.

Redstate is the enemy, Erik Erickson is a dangerous sycophant who knows no boundaries for his bootlicking to the Beltway elites.

IMHO
Stop trying to find a single gatekeeper to your news consumption!

Invest in a good RSS reader and start adding RSS feeds every day.

Yeah. Don’t tell me. I was just answering the thread.

I only use FR.

And only for the entertainment value.

When the call comes to exterminate islam, and drag Congress through the streets with log chains, I’ll be fully on board. Until then...

I have replaced drudge with RealClearPolitics.

I like having several sites to read as well, and like someone else already said it is not about shielding my eyes from things I don't like; it is about not giving those in the establishment the revenue from my visit to their website.

I have American Thinker on my favorites. Years back I hear Rush mention it once. Quite a few years back. Rush is getting boring lately, and is a republican before he is conservative.. Everytime he gets married, he gets boring. Too much viagra taking the blood from his brain I guess..

Try beforeitsnews.com. You’ll be amazed at what you’ve been missing. Theblaze.com is pretty good too, but they tend to attract a lot of trolls.

So the Cliffs Notes version of your comment is:

“Lean Forward”.

No?

Write your own blog if you're so dang sensitive.

Now that is funny.

You stole the idea of my saying - “The only perfect politician is yourself”

The current candidates are far from even being close to perfect. Whoever runs against Obambi I will be “holding my nose” my nose, just varying how hard.

Simple. Put all these sites through your BS filter and read on.
Just because a site doesn't agree with me 100% I'm not going to ignore it. Like Free Republic.
So far I just happen to agree with Jim Robinson 99.9%.

Rush is so uncomfortable in his own skin right now due to his own current position regarding the primary that he's been babbling and spending gobs of time on things we care nothing about.

His voice is all hyper for most of the show and he babbles on and on....and when he comes up for breath, I can't figure out what the hell point he's trying to make.

Today, one of his babbles was ranting on and on how he doesn't let criticism bother him...he just ignores it. It was so pointless and so "Talk Show Host 101" that I figure he must be getting such an extraordinary amount of criticism right now that it's unhinging him.

I've been a listener for 22 years....and he's been my mentor. So I don't say all this with relish. It's sad.
