Well I'm going to make the first comment on the WVPE blog. I'm moderate to liberal and that blog seems pretty offensive on the surface.

I guess +1 to WVPE for being brave enough to link to it on your website instead of sweeping the whole TOTN spot under the rug.

+1 for having a blog, too, but only if you keep it up to date and post stats on how many people are visiting.
