Instalink

Yesterday, Glenn Reynolds linked to a story at Strategy Page that, if I may summarize, said that things are going great in Iraq and our troops are “mystified” that the media reports otherwise. Setting aside any effort to evaluate that claim, I had to wonder how many times, in the last three years, that Reynolds has linked to a story that was in all essentials identical to this one. I’m not masochistic enough to dig through his archives, but a quick glance at my memory seems to indicate “hundreds of times”. I wonder, are there bloggers on the right who do nothing but say “things are fine, and the troops wonder why the media says differently” in new and exciting ways in the hopes of an Instalaunch?
