A More Perfect Union

Just a note. I think it's quite a coincidence that 5 liberal blogs have posted the same video, with the same title, without writing more then a sentence under it, all within a few days.

Why not add youre own perspective? Why not include some analysis? Why not break down what Obama said? Why not contribute to the discussion instead of being a possible mouthpiece to the Obama campaign?

While this Blog is on Liblogs - this is not a "liberal" blog. We are non-partisan.

Senator Obama's speech was labelled "A More Perfect Union" hence why so many blogs have labelled their video as such.

Blogs are merely not for opinion they can be for news.

If anyone were to make such a profound speech then you would find it here. I challenge you to provide speeches of this calibre. If you do, I will gladly post there here.

Blogs don't repost a news story word for word and don't contribute anything. To just link to a news story without any opinion or analysis whatsoever is just questionable.

My point was that you and others just didn't use the same title, post the same video (though there are many variations and clips), not include any writing, but all did so in such a way that liblogs always had a clip on the aggregator, never were there two of these videos on the page.

You specify you would post any profound speech, but you pretend like your determination of profound was not determined by bias. You I'm sure can cite newspapers to support your opinion I could show just as many who posit the contrary view. For you to act as if you are objective in your judgment of what is profound, either you could describe the criteria in absolute terms, or you were biased and conciously so in suggesting you weren't.

The person running a blog can do whatever they want. I do not recall having to read the Blogger's Manual of Proper Posting before having my account activated.

If you don't like the way this blog goes about its business then do not read it, don't tell you friends about it, and most of all, don't bookmark it.

Problem solved.
