Aw, c'mon, Brooks...! Stick a sock in it... You know NOTHING about DailyKos...

if the poor sap would spend just a couple of days actually READING daily kos, doing the research that one supposedly has the right to expect from a nyt columnist, he could plainly see that there isn't a soul on kos who feels constrained from taking their own course... the only ones that get banned or censured are the ones that violate the norms of reasonable decency or deliberately lie in an attempt to cause trouble... sure, just like anywhere else (the nyt possibly?), there can sometimes be groupthink but, by and large, kos is the most community-oriented, leaderless weblog on the internet...

"The Keyboard Kingpin, aka Markos Moulitsas Zuniga, sits at his computer, fires up his Web site, Daily Kos, and commands his followers, who come across like squadrons of rabid lambs, to unleash their venom on those who stand in the way," writes Brooks. "And in this way the Kingpin has made himself a mighty force in his own mind, and every knee shall bow."

this is the most childish screed imaginable coming out of a newspaper that seems to think it's earned a reputation for credibility... gimme a break... all i can do after reading something like this is to chuckle ruefully and shake my head... what garbage...!
