That state of the DE blogosphere

I've been holding off on commenting on the imbroiglio over a posting at DelawareLiberal for Veteran's Day for several reasons. First and foremost is the situation at home (more on that later) but also because I wanted to get some distance from it to be sure I was seeing things clearly.

Brief update

 Ok, so I'm going to try writing again as an attempt to hash out some things that I think about but haven't given enough effort to untangle.  This is largely based on conversations I have with a left wing person whom I greatly respect and has been good enough to challenge me and my ideas in a most respectful manner.  I find that in our conversations I'm falling short of what I want to say in a coherent manner.  Perhaps I can do that here.   Here's hoping
