I'm sorry, but this guy seems to be infected with a case of "high Broderism". The political internet is highly partisan right now because the political sphere is hyper-partisan. This has been going on for decades, with roots that stretch back at least as far as Nixon and were rampant during the days of Clinton's impeachment, long before people had even coined the term "blog".
I tried to read it to the end, I really did, then I got to this gem:
"The Internet is regulated heavily, by the way: The equivalent of trespass is forbidden. You can't libel people on the Internet. You can't commit fraud over the Internet."
At that point I decided to stop wasting my time, download a pirated movie, check my firewall to make sure my computer wasn't turned into a Ron Paul spambot, and then clear out my e-mail box with all the Nigerian scam e-mails...
