So for some reason, I was just stumbling around looking for local blogs and I came across this one: Rob Kremer. As I looked around the stuff was so naive and/or sinful that at first I assumed that it was intended as tongue-in-cheek. But, of course, I soon realized that the guy was serious. One of those prickish shoeshine boys of the far-right (how far right? Not only is he in cahoots with the nearly incomprehensible Lars Larson, but he also seems to think that Sarah Palin has some worth). Sadly, these folks do have some success as getting the more lemming-like masses to accept their greed, fear and hostility as common sense. But they should leave me out of it.

Anyway, I know, they’re flopping about all over and who cares? Well, I don’t really either. But then the description of his blog is an irritating piece of hogwash that I find rather offensive. As he seems to be trying to imply that all of us (Portland) Oregonians are shallow, knee-jerk, greedy Republicans like himself:

“Portland, Oregon is occupied territory. It was invaded years ago by a non-native species of political animal from back east who took over our political and cultural institutions in order to try out their utopian socialist dreams on our great state. This blog will chronicle the insurgency that is trying to free Oregon from the occupiers’ grip by shining a bright light on their most egregious scheme.”
