The “Fox News” of Political Blogs.
Well, if we get Fox’s ratings and revenue, then, great!
I’ve always taken these rankings with a grain of salt, but it’s nice to see us on top. Vivian’s site is fantastic – as is Tom White’s VaRight.com.
We’ll see if this is a trend or a blip.
On the subject of the 2007 Bilderberg meeting, Perry attempts to defuse and minimize it by stating that he only attended once and talked about energy.
Fact of the matter is Rick Perry violated the Logan Act when he trekked to Istanbul, Turkey, to attend the secretive meeting.
The Logan Act states:
Any citizen of the United States, wherever he may be, who, without authority of the United States, directly or indirectly commences or carries on any correspondence or intercourse with any foreign government or any officer or agent thereof, with intent to influence the measures or conduct of any foreign government or of any officer or agent thereof, in relation to any disputes or controversies with the United States, or to defeat the measures of the United States, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than three years, or both.
“Rick Perry seems to have attempted to get ahead of accusations that he was violating the act in making the visit by claiming the trip was paid for out of campaign contributions and not by taxpayers, but this is inconsequential,” Paul Joseph Watson wrote on May 31, 2007.
It is inconsequential because he violated U.S. law and should be held responsible for doing so.
Congratulations but “fair & balanced” it isn’t. But then again, you give the audience what they want…
