SOTU Wrap-Up: The Blogosphere Responds
For lefty types, the best moment in the State of the Union address was when the mention of the Patriot Act's expiration was met with (to quote Boing Boing) a Presidential "frowny face." We, however, are more impressed with Glenn Reynolds's subtle implication that he in factwrotethe State of the Union address. Wow! Does this mean that, like David Frum, he'll be asked to leave his post soon?
