A Short, Sharp Shock & Awe

Orange County blogger Kynn Bartlett, of Inland Anti-Empire fame, has a new blog, Shock & Awe. Actually, it's two blogs in one:

"Shock" details assaults on civil rights and freedom, while "Awe" celebrates those heroes who stand up against oppression.

The format takes a little getting used to, but the content is loaded with great links. Let's hope the "Awe" column can keep up with "Shock."

Of special note is the post on Benador Associates and its roster of "nationally and internationally recognized [experts] on issues of the Middle East and national security, among others." The list bears a strong resemblence to the foreign policy hack roster of the Moonie Times op-ed page, and could explain in part why Frank Gaffney, Jr. is big pimpin' Laurie Mylroie.
