3. Oh, Lord, you aren't kidding.
No content, no longer a valid URL.

There was some content a while ago, though it was very old.

This is a sad, sad, very tragic day.

In memorium, MWO; who has gone gently indeed into that great goodnight.

:cry:

5. The Horse is Dead! Long Live the Horse!
Yes, indeed....the Horse is no more. I thought I was the only one to notice.
After all these months of checking, checking, checking only to find that The Horse was still out to pasture, now I discover that the Horse has been sent to the glue factory.

I'm quite aggrieved because I haven't found anything that quite matches MWO's wit and punch. They had the rare ability to combine satire with political action. Their discussion board was vital and compelling.

Well, we are being forced to adjust to lots of unwelcome changes. This is just another disappointment. Sigh.

8. I really, really miss the old nag
That was the first political site I visited regularly. They had a great ride when they were actually riding. No glue factory, though ...... just hoofbeats in the sky.

As a footnote, does anyone recall the very last story they had posted on their website? It was an endorsement of Clark.
