Weird and Wonderful

From American Digest, a wild collection of interesting blog sites, including a fine post on Football Fans for Truth on the top 10 Christopher Hitchens ass-kickings here, including my favorite, about Michael Moore:

To describe this film as dishonest and demagogic would almost be to promote those terms to the level of respectability. To describe this film as a piece of crap would be to run the risk of a discourse that would never again rise above the excremental. To describe it as an exercise in facile crowd-pleasing would be too obvious. Fahrenheit 9/11 is a sinister exercise in moral frivolity, crudely disguised as an exercise in seriousness. It is also a spectacle of abject political cowardice masking itself as a demonstration of "dissenting" bravery.


The sites collected by Gerard are simply fascinating. Check them out.
