The Sophistry

For those who still don’t know (although I highly doubt that anyone is not aware of Michael Yon and yet is visiting this little blog on the corner of the web), Michael Yon is a national treasure as it comes to reporting facts from the ground in Iraq. Although many of us on the Right like Michael, I don’t get the sense from his writing/reporting that he’s particularly partisan about anything. He was pretty brutal in his criticism of the Bush Administration’s pre-surge strategy, and he continues to be critical about its actions (or lack thereof) in Afghanistan, for example.

I think he is one of the few sources of actual information, actual news, presented in as bias-neutral way as possible today. Those who get their news only from CNN, NYT, and the rest of the MSM simply do not have the facts necessary to form an educated opinion. Bookmark his site; visit it often.

He has a new book out, called Moment of Truth in Iraq.  I’ve ordered it, and I just want to encourage everyone to support Michael.  He’s providing a real service to Truth, Justice and the American Way.
