Signing off.Well folks its

Signing off.

Well, folks, it’s time for me to go and head off for a long weekend on the North Carolina coast. Hopefully Josh will return from his vacation with a post or two for you later today. It’s been a real pleasure to write for this audience, read all your emails, and even get a chance to respond to a few of them. Apologies if I didn’t manage to get back to you on something or other — the volume of correspondence TPM generates gets a bit frightening at times and I’ve been trying to hold down my day job.

Ordinarily, you can find me both at The American Prospect in various forms and over here along with many illustrious colleagues at TPM Café.

To sum up my main points over the past week — peanut butter is bad, invading Iran would be bad, all these dudes telling lies to try to get us to go to war with Iran are bad, global warming is bad, exaggerating the difficulty of stopping global warming is bad, the government of Tunisia is bad, nativists are bad, and letting telecoms run amok is bad. Massive corruption is also bad, but we leave that up to Paul and Justin.

I’ll try to return from vacation with some local color from Red America. I hear they hate George W. Bush down there, too, these days.
