Sipsey Street mentions in the media.

"Who will rid me of these troublesome bloggers?"

Thursday night, the Boston radio show NightSide With Dan Rea (8 p.m. WBZ-AM) did an hour long interview with CBS’s Sharyl Attkisson on the Fast and Furious scandal, and Sharyl mentioned David Codrea, Dave Workman Sipsey Street and the general subject of blogs in the breaking of the Gunwalker scandal. I have this second hand and cannot find the show posted on the Internet.

The Houston Chronicle, in an article on "State troopers ready launch gunboats along Rio Grande," mention Sipsey Street as well, along with a link, God love 'em:

A forum at Austin Bass Fishing notes the six boats are equipped with three 300 Mercury Verados on the stern. A number of other sites, including a conservative blog for the Sipsey Street Irregulars, feature animated discussions.

I also hear that this week Sipsey Street posts and the overall work of the Coalition of Willing Lilliputians were the subject of private discussions at the NRA Board Meeting and the White House. We sure are coming up (or down) in the world.

Bad Cyborg said...: Congrats for getting "press" this week, Dutchman. You and David most definitely deserve it.

BUT!

I most certainly DO NOT like hearing that you were on the agenda at the WH. In my book that is a DAMNED good way to win this year's award for doing the best Vince Foster imitation.

The NRA on the other hand disturbs me greatly.

Who knows, they may want to advertise on your site!

Mt Top Patriot said...: Its not so much blogs, but the sanitizing effect of the truth available across the new media to anyone who searches for it.
Martial Law is the only thing that will rid the Tyrant of The United States of "these troublesome blogs", but then blogs will be the least of his problems.

"Progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress."

I believe that liberty is the only genuinely valuable thing that men have invented, at least in the field of government, in a thousand years. I believe that it is better to be free than to be not free, even when the former is dangerous and the latter safe. I believe that the finest qualities of man can flourish only in free air – that progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress, and of no permanent value. I believe that any man who takes the liberty of another into his keeping is bound to become a tyrant, and that any man who yields up his liberty, in however slight the measure, is bound to become a slave. -- H.L. Mencken

"The Fate of Unborn Millions. . ."

"The time is now near at hand which must probably determine, whether Americans are to be, Freemen, or Slaves; whether they are to have any property they can call their own; whether their Houses, and Farms, are to be pillaged and destroyed, and they consigned to a State of Wretchedness from which no human efforts will probably deliver them. The fate of unborn Millions will now depend, under God, on the Courage and Conduct of this army-Our cruel and unrelenting Enemy leaves us no choice but a brave resistance, or the most abject submission; that is all we can expect-We have therefore to resolve to conquer or die." -- George Washington to his troops before the Battle of Long Island.

"We will not go gently . . ."

This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can't be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won't be done. The Founders' Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.

But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.

And when we are gone, the scattered, free survivors hiding in the ruins of our once-great republic will sing of our deeds in forbidden songs, tending the flickering flame of individual liberty until it bursts forth again, as it must, generations later. We will live forever, like the Spartans at Thermopylae, in sacred memory.

"A common language of resistance . . ."

"Colonial rebellions throughout the modern world have been acts of shared political imagination. Unless unhappy people develop the capacity to trust other unhappy people, protest remains a local affair easily silenced by traditional authority. Usually, however, a moment arrives when large numbers of men and women realize for the first time that they enjoy the support of strangers, ordinary people much like themselves who happen to live in distant places and whom under normal circumstances they would never meet. It is an intoxicating discovery. A common language of resistance suddenly opens to those who are most vulnerable to painful retribution the possibility of creating a new community. As the conviction of solidarity grows, parochial issues and aspirations merge imperceptibly with a compelling national agenda which only a short time before may have been the dream of only a few. For many Americans colonists this moment occurred late in the spring of 1774." -- T.H. Breen, The Marketplace of Revolution: How Consumer Politics Shaped American Independence, Oxford University Press, 2004, p.1.
