Of course he does. Sometimes, it's incoherent shrill partisan whining, mixed in with gratuitous ass-covering. And t-cell updates.

He liked "Team America." Other than that, not really.

It's not even the partisanship and endless carping on the administration and intellectually dishonest putdowns of fellow bloggers that really made him irrelevant. Not even linking to Daily Kos did that. IMO it was his being practically AWOL during Rathergate that sealed his fate. Given his resume, his silence on the issue was more deafening than that of the Times.

Bitchy is as Bitchie does !

Ugh! It's astonishing, really, how quickly he has gone from being one of my favorite bloggers to someone I can barely tolerate reading. Seriously, I'm coming close to delinking his site.

And it's not just because he's turning against Bush. If he were to come out and say look, I was wrong, I've had a change of heart based on what I've seen over the past year, I could respect that.

But no. He's gone from (what I consider to be) Bush apologist to shrill, hysterical Kerry partisan seemingly overnight. I'm sorry, but I cannot fuckin' deal.

I was told that not only could I play my radio at a reasonable volume but that one of the other side benefits of your blog was I don't have to read Andy anymore -- you would take that one for the team.

Thanks by the way.

Sullivan! I remember him, used to have a blog. What ever happened to that guy?

Yeah, Andrew Sullivan, he's the guy who sold his soul for the chance at a Kerry-signed marriage license, right?

Andrew who now?

Delinked months ago- I guess I don't understand her nuanced thinking.

Not sure what Sullivan's middle initial is, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's "S".

BTW Ace, the link to Sullivan is broken. I'd ask you to fix it, but I think it's better this way. Really.

He gives us all something to mock and make fun of, that's something, isn't it? Jeff at beautifulatrocities.com has certainly been having fun...

John, I'm sure that bad link's intentional.

It's sad, really, to see what was once such an interesting site degenerate; first into the gay marriage bulletin board, and then into foot-stamping anti-Bush hysterics. The site would still be useful if it was an alternate viewpoint. Instead it's from an alternate universe.

Does Andrew Sullivan have anything to offer anymore except shrill partisan whining?

"Anymore"...? :)

No.

So why do you bother?

Sully Translation: "The rest of the Michael Gordon piece makes you want to weep: because of the promise in Iraq that was lost, because of a noble, vital war undermined by the Federal Marriage Act, er, I mean, arrogance and incompetence."

Face it. Sullivan's a Blogasaur. As in: old, passe, trite, predictable, irrelevant.

Harsh? Yeah.

True? Maybe.

Think about it. The blogosphere is extremely young but old enough now to fashion a pespective impossible to consider even two years ago.

Sullivan started his blog early and benefitted from his uniqueness/schtick, i.e., gay conservative (cough).

There's too much competition from too many blogs now.

He's a Blogasaur. His time has passed.

PS. I googled "blogasaur". Five hits. Damn, you, Frank J.

My official "Andrew Sullivan is Irrelevant" Day passed over a year ago: September 2, 2003.

Aw, why'd you even bother bringing him up? I actually bothered to take a look at his site again, and the answer to your question is a resounding "no."

I blame you, Ace, for several minutes of my life that I'll never get back.

I'm surprised he hasn't started channeling Daman Wayans' character from 10 years ago...

HATED It!

Just checked Andy's site and was pretty appalled. He's quoting a CBS poll for cripes' sake and calling the obviously friggin' outlier poll result of a 44 percent approval rating bad news for the president.

What a jackass. A stupid, stupid jackass.

Andrew who?

Does Sullivan have anything to offer?

His martyrdom! He is guiltier than any fundamIntalist Christian ever has been at trying to make his zealously religious views on homosexuality public policy. So he offers the sacrifice of his credibility on the altar of political orthodoxy.

Does he still blog?

Heh. I got this error message repeatedly:

CommInt Submission Error
Your commInt submission failed for the following reasons:
Your commInt could not be submitted due to questionable content: mIn
Please correct the error in the form below, then press Post to post your commInt.

Finally I changed the spelling of "fundamIntalist." It posted. I guess the program doesn't approve of "mIn" and "Sullivan" in the same context.

fyi: bad link.
