I put Middle Earth Journal in hiatus in May of 2008 and moved to Newshoggers.
I temporarily reopened Middle Earth Journal when Newshoggers shut it's doors but I was invited to Participate at The Moderate Voice so Middle Earth Journal is once again in hiatus.

Even in Death

Here's something seriously saddening. By now, most people know that the Arthur Miller, the author of "Death of a Salesman" among many other milestones, has passed away. Miller was also a well known liberal and critic of hawkish administration policies for his entire life. Even as he is being put into his grave, however, certain right wingnuts can't resist getting in a few jabs at him.

This piece from (*ugh*) Opinion Journal is truly offensive. I won't even quote from it here. Betsy Newmark jumps on the bandwagon and decides to disrespect the dead. You know, even if Dick Cheney keeled over from his hundreth heart attack this afternoon, I'd find something good to say about the guy. This is the political climate you deal with when you try to engage the Bushies in any conversation.
