Intellectual t-ball

I'm loathe to promote this, but The Huffington Post debuts today. After reading the early posts, it seems that bloggers on the right side of the political spectrum should have a field day with this. Each post is like a baseball placed on tee for right leaning bloggers to smack out of the park. The problem is who wants to debase themselves by addressing this stuff? When a blogger goes after, say, Harry Reid, there is some feeling of accomplishment. Going after Mr. and Mrs. Julia Louis-Dreyfus feels like you are smacking around a paraplegic 8 year old with downs syndrome, though.

And that leads me to another question. David Frum, what the hell were you thinking? You look like the fox in the henhouse, but unlike the fox, the hens in this henhouse are going to try to peck your eyeballs out. Even if you succeed, all the other hens are going to cackle about how they got the better of you.
