  a small bloggery observation
So, it has been bugging me for a while that all of the high-profile pinko-commie blogger types are pretty much ignoring Cuba, while the moonbat right-wingers are all over it. But I'm beginning to notice that the Cuba attention deficit is actually part of a much bigger, scarier trend--one that speaks to long-standing partisan stereotypes and makes me very, very afraid: the left isn't really blogging about foreign affairs or international issues at all. Atrios has nothing about London today, even though he does talk about the Daily Show's coverage of the CT primary. Kos and Marshall have touched on the subject a little, but really only so far as it reflects on GWB and the midterm races. General blog-coverage of Lebanon on the left is pretty damn feeble, even while the right whips itself into a photoshop/media bias frenzy (a frenzy that, to make matters worse, is actually not entirely without merit).
