My friend Eric just called me this morning with a bad case of blogger withdrawal syndrome. He is at the Michigan Republican Party Convention representing the anarcho wing of the Tea Party. So he says. He also said that there are about 700 delegates openly favoring the Tea Party out of about 2,000 total. And the Republican Party establishment is pissed. Why not? The Tea Party movement intends a hostile takeover of the Republican Party. So the usual political maneuverings are going on. Rules changes being on the top of the list of holding actions.

Well as I said Eric was disturbed. He forgot to wish Instapundit a happy birthday yesterday. My guess is that Glenn is 29 or 39 going on 19. But he is going to have a ways to go to catch up with me. My mate tells me I am 65 going on 17. Well. Any way.

Help Glenn out by buying his book:

An Army of Davids: How Markets and Technology Empower Ordinary People to Beat Big Media, Big Government, and Other Goliaths

Which seems rather appropriate under the circumstances.
