All in all, I am far more interested in the Kingdom of God than any political movement. While I seek to be politically informed and do indeed hold political opinions, I am of the thought that Political parties, like nations ...and gold... and personal ambition are headed for the dust bin of history. Don't get me wrong. I think public policy is important and can be either good or bad, holy or unholy, freeing or bureaucratic. That said, I think think the manner in which we conduct ourselves politically is often as important as the positions we advance.
With that in mind, here is a select and growing list of political blogs I sometimes visit.
(this is incomplete, I will be adding a much larger list)
Top Ten Conservative, Top Ten Liberal blogs.
Town Hall : Mega site for the best in conservative thought with dozens of daily editorials. (This site is made all the better for the diversity and breadth of conservative thought)
Mathew 25 Network (social activism, focus on Christian ethics and truth telling, liberal framework)
Tdad's Roar and Purr (I came across "T-Dads" site in a special way. In linking though Blog-spot profiles I discovered we love much of the same music -- with over 80% common ground on our favorite music lists. That said, we think less alike politically, though I deeply respect his tone and concerns.
World View Weekend (Brannon Howse)
WVW is not a political blog per say but rather a forum for applied biblical thought (conservative reading) --with many political applications. I find I differ with its contributors routinely (in both content and tone) and find its graphics, tragic -- but look to it to keep me honed.
Sojourners (comments to follow)
Pam's Coffee Conversation: (Christian writer, pretty critical of Republican politics, but she likes my pictures.)
Grassfire.org: A group started by a family friend - Steve Elliot, given to stirring political activism among those given to biblical (and conservative) values.
