The American Spectator

The Spectacle Blog

Here we go. We got a new toy for Christmas, a blog of our own. Everyone will want to play with it. Like good liberals, we promise to share.

Actually, the most generous person I know is Ben Stein. Time after time he sends us gems. The latest is posted for Tuesday -- part of Ben's ongoing campaign to help America recover from the rampaging media and political looters set in motion by Hurricane Katrina. As anyone who has gauged Reader Mail reactions to his previous two offerings has sensed, Ben's "Get Off His Back" and "More on Katrina," have swept the Internet. We're still receiving reactions to them. By my estimation, they've been the most widely read web columns in the U.S. this year, maybe even in Beverly Hills and Malibu.
