The blogosphere sure is an interesting place! When I first began reading blogs, I started with the big one, the blogfather, Glenn Reynolds, at instapundit.com. I had thought he was pretty liberal, but was pleased to discover that his political beliefs are just about spot on with mine. It is fun to read people you agree with, I must admit. Anyway, after seeing several references to someone named Andrew Sullivan, I decided to check out andrewsullivan.com. I liked it. Nice man, conservative values, though being gay, he's not exactly religious right (thank god), he supported Bush and the war on "terror" and writes for several publications, Time Magazine probably being the most prominent. Well recently he switched sides and is supporting Kerry. He claims he's not a single issue voter and that the FMA is not why he's switched, and I believe him to a point. Obviously it's a big factor, as well as his doubts about Bush's handling of the war. The funny part is how so many other right-ish bloggers have turned on him. Sure, now he looks wishy-washy, but he's been a trusted blogger for a while, one change of allegiance shouldn't negate years of right wing goodness.
