Washington Post: Best Oregon Blogs

The Washington Post columnist Chris Cilizza' put together a list of the top state-level political blogs. Among other blogs in Oregon, the Write Idea was included.

I am writing this post as a cordial reply to Blue Oregon’s post regarding the Washington Post’s political blog roll. This morning, Vorpal Sword had this to say about the Write Idea:

I don't know what the Washington Post writer was thinking, but this Southern Neo-Confederate propaganda is the American equivalent of Holocaust Denial.How this kind of horrific, toxic crap gets picked up by a purportedly legitimate newspaper is beyond me. (Unless it was a Supreme Being's synchronistic way of making the WaPo look like idiots).Way to go, WaPo. Now everyone will be sure that Oregonians are bat-sh*t crazy.

In my post regarding the Civil War entitled American Civil War: The South Was Right I present an admittedly biased, but I would like to say somewhat intellectual article on the American Civil War. Rather than engaging in a reasonable debate, the author of the above comments prefers to present an ad hominem argument that contains outright lies. I am willing to participate in an intellectual debate with anyone who reads my blog. Thus, I see no reason for the commenter to attack me personally, or for Blue Oregon to both tolerate and to host his comments.
