Neo-Borking
HughHewitt.com ^ | 10.28.2005 | Hugh Hewitt

Posted on 10/28/2005 10:19:02 AM PDT by Checkers

Professor Adler thinks I am way off the mark. Mere-Orthodoxy says bull's-eye. K-Lo tags me as a "New York Times kind of conservative." Howard Kurtz gives credit where credit is due.

Everyone can say it isn't raining where they live, but that doesn't mean it isn't raining in a lot of places. Professor Adler needs to go back to The Corner's archive, to October 3, and start reading. (I can't find the Caligula's horse post, but there are plenty of others that will make my point if he will simply read.) ConfirmThem.com has plenty of similar evidence. There is much in the way of responsible analysis, of course, and there is a reality that this week's publication of speeches which is cover for a lot of the neoBorking that happened prior to their publication.

But no fair reader who actually reviews what was written, said, and done over the past three-plus weeks will deny the neoBorking that occurred. It just isn't possible to do so.

As for Matt Anderson's question: A defeat on the Senate floor would have been painful, but also a constitutional result with many upside as clarity about who believes what is almost always a plus in a republic.

does every single damn blog entry from hewitt deserve it's own thread in news/activism?

If you're going to post every little update as it's own thread, then it probably should go in bloggers.

Hugh hewitt's 3 sentence brain farts are not really news articles.

I think Hugh should bump all those posts he had about how the criticism of Miers was pointless as there was no way she would ever withdraw.

And yet if it was another one of the mindless ramblings from shrilling Coulter you'd be drooling all over it.

For real. This Hugh spam should be moved to the proper blog forum if not deleted altogether.

1. Coulter writes columns. Those columns are generally treated as news items.

2. When hewitt wrote an article for the new york times yesterday decrying conservatives (awfully nice of hewitt), it was posted as news /activism, and it belonged there.

3. If coulter made a 3 sentence blog entry several times a day and people kept posting each entry as a news / activism story, I'd complain too. Every random thought does not deserve to be in news/ activism, no matter who wrote it.

4. There's a reason there's different categories and sections to free republic. You start littering one section with threads that don't belng there and you screw it up for everybody.
