Time's tip to GW and blogs
President Bush is Person of the Year and Powerline is picked as "Blog of the Year" by Time Magazine. Heck, this may be the first time in a long time I actually go buy a copy.
Rathergate (aka Killian Memo Affair) is what lit the blogsphere on fire. From Powerline to Charles Johnson to Bill's INDC Journal and their thousands of readers who hit the ground running to gather evidence and expertise, the power of widespread, grassroots, almost instantaneous communication that allowed for the pooling of information and almost simultaneous vetting of it garnered so much attention the Mainstream Media could not longer ignore it (even as they still try to dismiss it.)
Congratulations to all of you!
Of course, this GW and Powerline thing does not sit well with you-know-who. At dKos the usual Bu$Hitler schtick has been rolled out, and over at Moonbat Central - aka democraticunderground - they are taking exception to Time's stating GW won the election (they live in an altered state where Kerry has won).
Moonbats? Go to Canada already.
