The Thinkers on the Right
The Poorman's exceedingly worthy Honorable Mention for Wingnut of the week, is Wizbang.
This is what the brillint thinking man, Wizbang has to say:
But one thing I’ve noticed is that the right tends to dominate
the “thinkers” category. There’s the above-mentioned (and much missed)
Steven Den Beste, Wretchard, Austin Bay, Will Franklin, Bill Whittle,
and the non-blogging Victor Davis Hansen, just to name a few.
But where are the thinkers of the left? Where are the serious essayists,
the scholars, the contemplators who would provide balance to the sheer
intellectual power of the above? […]
I went looking through the big liberal blogs, and was left wanting.
Atrios? Nope. Eschaton? Nope. […]
Evidently he didn't put enough thought and research into this post to realize that Atrios and Eschaton are the same thing. Oh yeah, he's a thinker alight!
If you are looking for some serious scholarly blogging on the left, try Talking Points Memo, Matthew Yglesias or Ezra Klein. And those a host more out there. They aren't hard to find!

Well, they are hard to find if you aren't actually looking.

Facts generally tend to get in the way of right-wing arguments.
