Thanks, Slate Magazine!!


While checking out the blog's statistics yesterday, I noticed a sizeable jump in the number of visitors over the past week. After checking out my website logs (thanks Statcounter) I noticed the majority of the newcomers had stopped by after reading an article on Slate.com that mentioned this blog. The article, entitled "Are You There, God ? It's Me, Hilary" made reference to my criticism of how the Democrats seem to have "found religion" for the 2008 campaign. The quote from Slate magazine:

Christian conservative Terry F. at The Endtime Observer sees nothing but cynicism and calculation in the Dems' divine tilt: "I'm sure they'll fool many people with this newfound emphasis on faith and values. But to me its a cynical attempt to appeal to people of faith by pretending to share similar values with them. They realize that the faith and values issue was a key to them losing to the Republicans in the 2004 presidential elections (according to to exit polling), so they've decided to have a more inclusive faith strategy going forward."

Yes, the article did bring a smile to my face. Its the first time the blog has gotten mentioned on what would be considered a mainstream website. Always feels good to have more people paying attention to what you're saying.
