The Blogosphere Takes Over the World

I wanted to mention this earlier.
Josh Chafetz of OxBlog reviews Sen. Zell Miller's "A National Party No More" in Commentary Magazine. Like Chafetz, I didn't much like the book. Unlike Chafetz, I didn't finish the book. I was excpecting to find the book full of sharp observations, but it came accross as too self congratulatory in the beginning.
Also worth reading in Commentary:"
Daniel Casse asks "Is Bush a Conservative?" The answer, in short, is if you redefine what you mean by conservative, "yes." I didn't find it all that convincing.
Also Anne Bayefsky writes a harsh indictment in "The UN and the Jews." It was very good but incomplete. I would have liked a mention of how the UN protected Hezbollah when it kidnapped and killed 3 Israeli soldiers in October 2000. (I did write about it though.)
Caveat: Though accessing this month's articles is free, it won't be in March. So read (and save) any worthwhile articles during February.
Then I see on Scrappleface that he, Scott Ott (aka Scrappleface) called James Lileks who was substituting for Hugh Hewitt, on Hewitt's radio show.
Watch out world, soon if you want to have an opinion, you'll need to have a blog!
