Rough Day

Folks, it's been a rough day. I have days like this on an intermittent basis, so it is not entirely unexpected.

So sorry for the fact that there is no Roundup today. But it could not be helped.

I will in all likelihood be back up and running tomorrow. That's usually the way it works.

In the meantime, you who are regular readers may want to scroll down the sidebar and click on some recommended blogs and other websites. They are all very good.

You can also help me by clicking on my link to the Columbia Conservative Examiner site and reading my article today. Thanks to all of you who are faithful readers.

Malkin Highlights Original Gun Rights Stories

Michelle Malkin, Fox News Contributor, syndicated columnist, and blogger, has highlighted a few familiar blogs for their original, breaking stories concerning gun rights.

Malkin's objective in the piece is to show that conservative bloggers do real news stories, including investigative reporting and tracking down facts that lead to breaking news reports one can't find anywhere else.

Among those listed are 3 bloggers with whom most of us are very familiar:

Several blogs did enterprising work on Obama’s proposal to ban guns within 5 miles of schools: Arms and the Law, Volokh Conspiracy and Outrageous Malfunction (here and here) broke the story.

Malkin has invited any conservative blogger who broke an original story to send her the information at the link you will find in her post.
