Done! Said it’s my last visit to his site until he returns to even-handed coverage of the Republican candidates.

Politics and war are remarkably similar situations.

I never imagined I would see so many conservative friends turn into liberal pimps, but the Mittens mutts have made the transformation. It makes me wonder how long they’ve been wallowing in the scum.

1. Drudge aggregates the big news stories, each day. Floods, tornados, elections, polls, scandals, campaigns, etc.

2. He doesn’t write the stories, and he doesn’t censor the news.

3. That particular day there was a deluge of anti-Gingrich stories, so he provided the headlines and links to those stories, as he does with any other story.

4. Had the day unfolded with a deluge, even a plethora of anti-Romney stories, Drudge would have provided the headlines and links to those stories, as he does with any other story.

5. As you said, over the years DrudgeReport has been instrumental in highlighting stories that were important to conservatives.

The attacks on Drudge have been ridiculous.

No one is better for the agenda of GOP Proud than Mittens. He has a long track recond in Mass., public school kiddo sexual grooming and all!

If you love Drudge, stay with him. All I’m saying is vote with your feet, if you’re fed up with Drudge’s BS, as many on FR are. By the way, Drudge is NOT the only non-MSM site out there.

“The attacks on Drudge have been ridiculous.”

A few years ago here, there would be less criticism, and more defense of Drudge—along the lines of what I wrote.

Most adults have left; Lord of the Flies, now.

Never saw on Drudge the Video of Nancy Reagan.

That one think along would have Quashed the “Newt was an Anti-Reagan”.

Not buying it and have not been to Drudge since.

*************************

classic case of ‘shooting the messenger’, which has always been a failed tactic. And will be here.

The guy doesn’t write anything.

Plus (and most importantly for JimRob), he LINKS TO THIS SITE. It’s how I (and likely many others) found FR in the first place. I wonder how much $$$$ for conservative causes here has been raised by that link over the years?

I’ve got nothing to say about FAUX NEWS though. They’re a bunch of damn RINOs.
