I'm a science freak. I'm also a politics freak. You might say I'm a 'Science and Politics' freak.
So where are all the 'Science and Politics' blogs and bloggers?
Sure, there are tons of 'science' blogs and tons of 'politics' blogs, and each group necessarily touches upon the other as they see fit, but I don't really know of any that regularly focus on 'Science and Politics' as a theme.
I see tons of 'national' blogs, 'local' blogs, 'elections' blogs, 'polling' blogs, 'labor' blogs, 'civil rights' blogs, 'abortion' blogs, 'healthcare' blogs and several high quality 'politics and religion' blogs, but one thing I really have not seen out there in force is a serious 'Politics and Science' blog!!!
Of course, here at DailyKos, we are blessed (BLESSED I say!!) with the regular sci-political brilliance of such geniuses as Darksyde and Devilstower as well as occasional science goodies from Shirah and BackgroundN0i5e.
But there is so much material to be covered. Think of all the topics that are of global importance that IMO deserve constant coverage and analysis -- the environment, deforestation, climate change, stem cell research, bioethics, military technology, communications technology, freedom of the internets, pollution, alternative energy technologies, the Republican War on Science, dynamic of 'Religion vs Science vs Politics', separation of church and state (e.g. evolution in public schools...), psychology of hypocrisy, the corrupt, the insurgents and the like, etc... okay, so you see the possibilities are endless.
Heck, I bet a whole blog could meaningfully be dedicated to countering the bullshit of Senator James "Global Warming is a Hoax" Inhofe alone.
So I ask you, who are your favorite 'Science and Politics' bloggers and what, if any, are the best blogs that cover such matters on a regular basis. Any hints?
