The most important blogger on the Internet

I am extremely new to posting to blogs, but have been a blog reader for several years now.

I am anything but an expert.

But I feel compelled to direct everyone who reads this to start reading (if you don't already) Glenn Greenwald at Salon... (If you subscribe to Salon, you undoubtedly know about Glenn and get straight to his articles. If you don't subscribe, donn't worry, you simply have to allow a cookie and watch a brief ad before gaining access to Salon content.)

Glenn's posts are often long, long-winded, repetitive and argumentative. But the points he makes are indisputable. And his command of the subjects he writes about (politics, military affairs, corporate governance, mainstream media, etc.) is remarkable; not to mention so well researched and documented -- with an astounding array of links and quoted passages -- he will make your head spin.

I hope to post links to various blogs I've found, compiled by typical subject matter and importance of subject matter. Glenn's Political Blog is THE most important voice out there.

Wherever your personal politics land on the spectrum, or if you only have a passing interest in politics, you owe it to yourself to absorb what it is that Glenn is writing about. AND to do so regularly.
