Time's Up

04 Aug 2008 10:34 am

So, I'm signing off guys--for a couple hours, at least. As you guys know, I've had a crush on the Atlantic peeps for awhile. In a bout of insanity, they've decided that I'm not so bad myself. This blog will be moving at some point today. Any comments made here after 12 noon, may not make it over. See you guys on the other side. Thanks so much for your support these past few months. If you guys didn't read, this wouldn't be happening. I am not afraid to say it--I love you all.

Congratulations, man. I've only been reading you for the last 3-4 months, but I've been impressed by everything I've seen. I've got no hesitation to say you more-than deserve the new job. See you at your new digs!

i love your voice and am glad it will be at the atlantic!

Welcome aboard!

Time to update Google Reader. Get it, Bison. :-)

Hey, you made it over to the Atlantic pages ... This is great. I love this place but it just got even better.

Shodagee,

The Atlantic monthly just got a whole lot better. All they need now is Brian Lamb.

Glad you have the stones to keep comments.

Looking forward to your next Steve Sailer post.

Oh, and don't put yourself down - the post of MY's you linked to is one thing, and maybe you can't write like that, but at least you spell check and actually research the things you're writing about.

Welcome aboard.

Good to see you over here "permanently." I loved your Cosby article and the podcast you did about it.

Your first mistake as an Atlantic blogger already -- your time isn't up, it's just beginning!

Congratulations!

Welcome to the Atlantic!

I don't know if you take requests, but it would be interesting to see your take on the fact that Ross Douthat, the GOP standard bearer here, links to and frequently cites Steve Sailer, a so-called "scientific" white supremacist and professional race baiter.

Wow, that was a smooth transition. May I do the honors of posting the first doubled comment?

It's a fact that African-American penises are larger, in inverse correlation to IQ.

I have measured (and tasted) hundreds myself, and feel that this election is bringing up a serious question.

If we have an African American president, then clearly white women are going to start having interracial sex. And we have no idea where this will lead.

But, we will have a lot of blond women surprised, and sore.

Nobody wants to hear this, but it is fact.

*gradually building slow clap* for the Sailer post above.

Gratz, Ta-Nehisi :-). Basketball (MY) being replaced by D&D (TC). Woo!

Steve Sailer is the chancre on the tongue of the Atlantic.

What's sick is that Ross will continue to give the repulsive bastard a pedestal to spew from and yet he's eliminated his comments section so no one will be able to publicly call Sailer on his nonsense. Not to mention that Ross himself will sail blithely on through the election pretending that the GOP isn't mounting a racist campaign against Obama.

It's a particularly cowardly time to kill comments, but typical of today's GOP.

MoeLarryAndJesus, I think you meant "Ross will give the repulsive pederast a bastard". Or was I mistaken?

glad to see you progress as a journalist and a thinker.
