The Four Horsemen of the Ablogalypse: 2010 Version
Since it's snowing out east and raining out west and no major policy is getting done today, let's look again at the Blogosphere.
In 2003, this Blogger defined who were the Four Horsemen of the Right Blogosphere who caused the most damage to the Left.
At the time, these Four did much damage:
Plague: Steven Den Beste
Famine: Charles Johnson
War: Andrew Sullivan
Death: Glenn Reynolds
This is 2010 and except for Glenn Reynolds, the other horsemen fled. Steven Den Beste writes a manga blog, Charles Johnson and Andrew Sullivan (confirmed by Sullivan's own mentor at The New Republic, I was right when I wrote this) went Anti-Semitic and then went Left.
So, who deserves it today?
Here are my choices:
Death: Glenn Reynolds
Famine: Jim HoftWar: Pamela Geller
Plague: Robert Stacy Mc Cain (and co-blogger Smitty)
Why?
Jim Hoft is quoted by talk Radio and his words affect the political atmosphere around the country; Thus he is famine.
Pamela Geller stands up to 3 Liberals on TV and still wins. She is also focused on the Islamofacist threat, and the Honor Killings NOW doesn't care about. And she also fights, she is War.
Robert Stacy Mc Cain and Smitty are Plague because RS is a "connecter" with the Right Blogosphere and Smitty also spreads the word. If some news hits the Right Blogosphere,they are there.
So, Ladies and Gentlemen of Conservative and Republican Politics and Blogging, meet your Four Horseman who fight the Obama administration!
My question: Who are your personal Four Horseman in day to day life?
