The Republican Study Committee did a conference call with
bloggers yesterday afternoon to announce their "American Taxpayer
Bill of Rights." (I was on the line but had to run out right after
the call, which is why I'm only blogging it now.) Fausta Wertz
took notes. In short: Some good ideas that have no chance of
passing in the immediate future. But getting the policy proposals
out there is an important step toward rebuilding a majority --
you've got to give voters something to vote for -- and it's
interesting to note that bloggers give the minority an avenue to
publicize what the mainstream press would generally ignore.
