I too am Spartacus

The Edwards blogger thing is unfortunate. I'm a big fan of Pandagon, I even tried to write their wikipedia entry, but some rightwing-nuts deleted it.

Haven't read Shakespears's Sister as much but I've enjoyed what I've read.

I think its clear the media is at fault here. As long as they consider conservative talking points news worthy this stuff is going to happen.

What I'm not so clear about is how to feel about Edwards campaign. I mean they should have had a better understanding of the blogosphere before hiring bloggers. Pandagon is very unapologetic, snarky, and honest about their views. That is what has made Pandagon such a great blog.

It is clear that the public and the media still isn't ready to "take the gloves off" when dealing with the topic of religion. They still want to treat it as special and unquestionable. That is too bad.

Until we are able to discuss and criticize these institutions openly and critically, those who do question we be ostracized.
