Another blog for y'all: I thought the blogger was still on hiatus, but he's back. Spencer Ackerman is a sharp young journalist who focuses on Iraq and other national-security issues (and is Matt Yglesias's roommate). He blogs at Too Hot for TNR -- so named because he got fired from The New Republic for not toeing that rag's line on Middle Eastern policy.

Yglesias and his goddamn sports blogging. A distraction from the real issues, which include detailed Wire blogging.

Dave, just had to tell you how much I’m enjoying the Yglesias site.

My favorite line today was about Huckabee reminding him of Greg Stillson (and if anyone gets that reference without checking color me impressed)

And not to push the point too hard but I also like the consistent Wizards notes too…

Bryan, the Wizards (formerly the Bullets) do NOT use the designated hitter.

Bryan,

I’m disappointed that you were joking.

It seemed so within the realm of possibility and was . . . delightful.
