I’ve been playing around with a number of draft posts this week, looking for a way to explain the words dropped at the end of a post a couple of days ago: “Cross-posted at The Moderate Voice”.
Here’s why.
Joe Gandelman’s site is an oasis in the middle of the howling cacophony of the political internet, and to say that I’m honored to join the co-bloggers at TMV would be a ridiculous understatement.
Thank You doesn’t begin to cover it. I’m just hoping I don’t fall straight down on my virtual backside…
Polimom and The Moderate Voice

If you haven’t been following the latest blogwar, in which a number of high-profile writers have been hurling hostilities with great abandon, you won’t find this post funny: I refuse to engage in a blog-fight with Andrew Sullivan because he …
When Adorable Child (AC) eats with her fingers, or sucks air for a deliberate belch, Polimom’s standard response is, “Did you grow up in a barn?” and we all laugh. It’s a long-standing, lightly-delivered reprimand — a reminder that civilized …
When I grow up, I wanna be an ideologue — a card-carrying member of a group that issues bumper stickers and blinders to its members in exchange for unthinking blather within a clear, easy framework. Just think of all the …

I also hope you don’t give up this site – cross-posting is a totally acceptable means of managing the content across sites (and of course some of the stuff you post here may not necessarily be appropriate for TMV.)
Sure hope this goes better than you experience at chron.commons did – but the picture over there was much nicer! Whoever the photog was who took that mug shot at TMV needs to clean his lens – really really bad! 😉

You’ve picked a good blog, in the Moderate Voice on which to blog. Joe’s reasonableness, moderation, and fairness were demonstrated most recently in the flair up of one of his co-blogger’s post that many Mormon’s found to be offensive. In the end, they took steps to make the post less offensive–the sign of a true moderate.
Best of luck.
Ed, the comment you left at TMV ’bout killed me laughin.
Thanks for the support! You’ll be glad you started reading at TMV (even if I weren’t starting to co-blog…)
Guy,
I hope you’ll still think well of TMV after I’ve posted a few, and drawn my own fair share of criticism (cuz I absolutely know it will happen…)
(smile…)
Congratulations, Poli! Glad your voice will be getting more recognition!
