Poll question: How long will it take until Firedoglake is no longer considered part of the liberal blososphere?
Now that Jane Hamsher has gone on Fox and has teamed up with Norquist, how much longer will her blog, Firedoglake, continue to be considered part of the liberal blogosphere?

2. It's a liberal website...
... for the myopic, irrational, and "cut off your nose..." crowd.

4. Well, she lost ME when she insulted Bernie Sanders.
There's an old rule that extremists on both sides of on issue arc over so far they're bound to cross paths, and this is evidently what happened to FDL.

5. She lost me during the primary
I think it was when it came down to Obama vs. Clinton that FDL went around the bend.

7. insulted him?
when did she insult him.

Let me guess, she criticized him, and people consider it an insult to criticize our "heroes".

8. I don't care who the messenger is
Firedoglake will stop being part of our posted links as soon as they stop posting stuff that's relevant to us, just like anything else.

People do stupid things. That's just how it works. The truth is constant though, if you can get it.
