Blogroll
We got into a debate with others over on Disillusioned Lefty a while back over blogrolling policy. Our problem was this; is it acceptable to link to clear racists, homophobes or misogynists (or in case of the specific example in question, all three rolled into one)? It became clear that at least some bloggers out there don't regard their blogrolls as endorsements of the views expressed therein. We don't agree with it, but c'est la vie.
This blog takes a different tack. Everyone on our blogroll passes what in the UK has been called the "Private Eye test" - namely, is there anything in it which you might find embarrassing to be put under a public spotlight? The links to the right represent blogs and bloggers whom we hold in high regard - even when we may disagree with their politics, or regard them as being occasionally somewhat naïve. Some like Marshall Wittman (the Bullmoose) however, are on more-or-less permanent probation.
