MyDD: conservative strawmen, congressional blog reading, Hurricane Katrina, and the new Select Committee on Energy Independence and Global Warming
This weekend on MyDD: Anatomy of a Strawman? tracks a conservative proto-meme backwards as it traveled from the National Review blog The Corner to a congressman from Marietta's press release to a throw-away remark by Newt Gingrich on Fox News. The Blog Habits of Capitol Hill touches on a new report concerning what congressional staffers are reading online and why they're reading it. Remembering the Storm takes on former FEMA Director Michael Brown's ruminations on the politicization of Hurricane Katrina, and Pelosi's Committee Coup assesses machinations in the House of Representatives as the new Speaker forms a new committee to lead the charge on global warming.
