RCP’s New Cross Tabs Blog

Created: June 10th, 2008 | Written By: Kyle E. Moore

A while ago, Real Clear Politics used to have a daily blog that was dedicated completely to the discourse going on in the blogosphere. Then it kind of went away. I remember a while ago asking Kevin Sullivan what happened to it, and he said that RCP had something bigger and better planned.

I’m honored to be a part of that bigger and better.

Real Clear Politics has just launched its new Cross Tabs blog, where I’m pleased to say that my work will be featured along with the work of Betsy Newmark, Brendan Nyhan, Jon Keller, Justin Gardner, Michael Stickings, Michael van der Galien, and Sister Toldjah. There are names in this list that I have never agreed with, and names that I have admired for sometime, so it’s exciting to be sharing an arena with these folks.

Official Unacceptable Comment Number 1!

Created: April 24th, 2008 | Written By: Kyle E. Moore

You know, I warn folks, and I’m nice about it, time and again, keep things civil, keep them decent, and we won’t have any problems. Unfortunately, Bill White couldn’t do that, threatened one of our writers, and engaged in uncalled for epithets.

Don’t bother finding the comment in the comments section to a post, I’ve erased it already, but in case you are wondering, this is the entirety of what Bill had to say:

Right now, I’m plugging your name into a long list of political commentators opposed to national socialism. Sometime tomorrow, someone will run your name against your local utility company database, get your address, date of birth and social security number, and place that on file. In the not to distant future, this information will be used to reserve a place for you in a labor camp, if your uppitiness doesn’t draw you further attention first.

Enjoy, asshole. We have plans for you, and all your Jew-Bolshevik friends.

Billy came with a website, which I will not post; I’m not interested in giving a traffic bump to neo nazis, and, yes, that is exactly what his website is. However, I have no qualms providing Bill’s email:

answp@nazi.org

You know, should you want to share your feelings on how they have treated our writers, or, you know, in general just kinda share your feelings about neo nazis. Either way, I don’ t care.

For the rest of you, I have a pretty high threshold of tolerance, but crap like this doesn’t fly around here. You have been warned.

Comments From Left Field v3.0 BETA

Created: April 17th, 2008 | Written By: D Metzger

Hi everyone. If you’re reading this through your RSS feed you’ll likely want to head on over to our home page. If not, welcome to version 3.0 of Comments From Left Field.

Given the recent inclusion of so many quality voices Michael and Kyle thought it a good idea to update our look, to give us a more modern “professional” feel. It’s our goal here to provide high quality discussion and opinion and it’s only fitting our site reflect that commitment to quality.

I personally hope you all approve of the change and while I’ve worked hard to ensure that the site’s theme looks good with all browsers there may still be some bugs that need working out. I’m also still in the process of adding additional features so, for now, enjoy the BETA.

Also: If you’ve got any issues, suggested additions or complaints feel free to add them to this post as a comment. Praise is always good too; I’ve got an ego like everyone else after all

(UPDATE from Kyle: I just wanted to thank the Newshoggers for the little housewarming, blogwarming whatever you want to call it! Thanks guys!

A Difficult Question

Created: April 9th, 2008 | Written By: Kyle E. Moore

We here at Comments from Left Field take pride in our support for the troops, and have teamed up with Fisher House on a couple of occasions to help out those wounded soldiers who come back from abroad.

The latest effort was during our In Honor fund drive in the fall of last year. Partnering up with bloggers throughout the blogosphere, regardless of their political affiliation and ideology, we helped honor the memories of SGT. Yance T. Gray, and SGT. Omar Mora. The drive was such a success that we decided to turn it into an annual event, but I need your help.
