The problem with the Hanging Shad, and this blog, and the countless other blogs on the Internet, is, "Who gives a rat's ass what Patrick Scully (or, insert writer's name here) thinks?"
Blogs are free and open to anyone -- anyone. Doesn't matter if they know what they are talking about or not, they can start a blog and write whatever they want. That doesn't mean the material is worth reading.
If you have a blog written by a left-winger, chances are everything will be slanted left; the same is true for blogs written by right-wingers.
Simply put, blogs are nothing more than self-serving digital masturbation tools so that the writer can feel important and whoever links to the blog can consider themselves "informed."
Here's a thought for the NHR and everyone else:
Who, what, where, when, why and how. That's it. If I want to read opinion, I'll go to the op/ed page. I don't, however, because I don't care what other people think. I don't care what people on Facebook think, I don't care what people on Twitter think.
I care about facts.
NHR, others: Work on presenting facts, not bullshit. I know bullshit is cheaper, but there's a reason for that.
