We're not ... conservative?

Recently's the Blogland was de-listed from SCHotline's list of featured blogs. We were told it was because we didn't post weekly. Shortly thereafter, two other very active sites went away when FITS was delisted and so was Wes Donehue.

When we heard this explanation, we were puzzled, especially when other blogs which were far less active remained i their roster.

But apparently, in SCHotlie's Truth, Version 2.0, it wasn't a question of which blogs were posting as much as they liked.

According to an explanation which was posted on the site today, it turned out that they are actually:


(R)eworking this portion of links that represent our conservative base...


This would seem to suggest that if we got kicked out, we must not be (at least by Hotlie's definition) conservative.

Ok, we know there are lots of blogs out there which represent a wide range of political opinions. But here in the Blogland, we've done rather un-liberal things like support school choice, challenge Barack Obama, praise judges who are tough on crime, question ineptitude in state government, criticize tax-and-spend educrats, endorse legislative roll call voting, called for reigning in the state's tax-and-spend mindset and support hunting down jihadists around the world.

... but in spite of all these position statements ... there are those out there who would say we're still not conservative?

Apparently, there's just not enough Kool-aid, vodka, or LSD to make some people happy.

    It will be interesting to see how this one fares in that "reworking" to represent the conservative base:

    I have no explanation for the selections. I don't consider myself to be conservative. I post on strippers, pot and love calculators - not too conservative in my book. Still, I could use the exposure.

    Edisto, it must've been a typo.

    You believe me, don't you?

    You must not be dumbing things down enough. Get back to the good stuff like comparing Obama to Hitler and I'm sure you'll be back in their good graces in no time.

    I see that the arch conservative Roxanne Walker retains her spot on the reworked to reflect conservative values claim.

    Maybe Jeff's just got the hots for her.

    I feel your pain. Here in New Mexico, I can't get the Pink Flamingo listed as a "state" blog because I write more about SC, than I do NM.

    Yet four RINOs that voted their true colors are really conservative... anything to do with the fact that you're not uisng Jeff's services in your bid for SC GOP chair?

    We note that someone must have read the reader comments herin to Jeff, Roxanne Walker's blog seems to have been dropped.

    Now I have no reason to go to SCHotline...
