BiCoastal Interactive Blogging News

If you like big political blogging communities like The Daily Kos and Booman Tribune, and your politics lean left, then you will probably like the brand new My Left Wing, the blogspring of veteran California blogger Mary Scott O'Conner.

Meanwhile there are fresh posts at Talk to Action, which is based in Massachusetts (if one can say that about a place in the blogopshere), and soon to be a big interactive site too.

For all the media hoo ha about progressive Christians "finally" finding their voices, Chip Berlet observes, "We have had our voices all along, thank you."

And Bruce Prescott is brimming with outrage at the nomination of John Roberts to the Supreme Court. Prescott, (who is really in Oklahoma) thinks Roberts has demonstrated "extreme insensitivity toward the rights of religious minorities." He calls Roberts the "champion of majoritarian religious privilege." He adds: "When the hubris that demands special privilege is coupled with the obsequity that grants it, it inevitably creates enough outrage at such injustice that the privileged become despised and the privileges are rejected. Those who think justices like Roberts will be good for the church are mistaken."
