This weekend, I was watching the internet thru my new iphone, which was a bit like taking in a baseball game thru a knothole in the fence. You can catch the basic action, but you don’t see the whole game.
So it was with the second campaign of the CT-LGM blog war*. The first, which could be termed The battle of Conor’s bluff, was part of a larger war and centered around whether one should vote for Obama despite the use of drones or make a statement and vote for Gary Johnson.
The second campaign, The fight of Navy’s need, took place over the weekend. (I hope those attempts at factual restatements don’t insult anyone on either side) In both campaigns, some current and former ObWi commenters were part of the troops arrayed. This post is not about either of those fights (so I’m not linking to them, though going to CT and LGM should be sufficient) but about what I think is the larger question behind them. If that intrigues, check below the fold.
*I should add that whether or not is was a ‘war’ is questioned by some of the participants.
