Some thoughts on the Download 2006 – politics and blogging gathering: Part 1
This is NOT a live blog.
I’m just going to jot some thoughts while the “summit” is going on.
- I always find panel-oriented blog gatherings to be a contradiction in terms. Blogging is about giving everyone an equal opportunity to speak. “Summits” that give some bloggers a bigger voice than others just seem contrary to the nature of blogging in general.
- The panelists talked about the impact of the traditional media, viagra buy patient but I’m waiting for them to admit that bloggers had basically no impact on the elections.
- I would like to hear a bigger discussion about why so many Democrats voted for the gay marriage amendment and the death penalty.
- On the subject of why don’t the Republicans give more attention to students: seriously? With apologies to Jenna, viagra sale haven’t any of you heard the old saying “If you’re not a liberal when you’re young, you have no heart. If you’re not a conservative when you’re older, you have no brain?”
