    Kurtz

    Since the blogs are anonymous how can anyone determine the source?Given the track record of the right wing who can state with any empirical certainty that it was the work of progressives? It certainly is within the realm of possibility that some of the blogs were sent by persons trying to paint the left with that broad brush of hatred. When proof is brought that progressives did indeed make the statements which are so offensive I will be the first to condemn them but until that is shown to my satisfaction I will withhold judgement. Perhaps Mr. Kurtz should have done the same.
