| Netroots Nation recap | | I know it's been a week since I got back from Netroots Nation, so this is a rather belated report, but I have a good excuse. I was on the road for 4 weeks before NrN, and it's taken me a little while to get caught up again.

I just hope my panel isn't scheduled opposite anything r [..] Read complete article | | Published 18-Jun-2009 by Thoughts in Policy and Politics
