Aaron's review of David's new book is below. I've only just gotten through the 4th chapter about the DFH war protest, which was fascinating. David will be speaking and signing copies of the book next Tuesday at the Boulder Bookstore at 7:30pm. On Wednesday he'll be at the Tattered Cover on Colfax (not in lodo), also starting at 7:30pm. After both of these events Drinking Liberally hosts will be taking David out for a drink at a local watering hole of his choosing.
To further facilitate discussions of the book, we wanted to do a live-blogging session to ask David questions. Unfortunately his travel schedule doesn't make that possible. So, let's call this a non-live live-blogging event. In the comments below, please post your questions to Mr. Sirota about this book or anything else.
Aaron and I will also be talking about the book and our Q&A session on the Mario Solis-Marich show on AM760 today and Monday, both times at 5:30pm. |
| johne :: An uprising of questions for David Sirota |
| I'll start off. Aaron describes you as being both an insider and outsider in his review, but in our conversations you say that's not correct. How is that or at what level do you consider the insiders in the D.C. beltway? Is MoveOn an insider? Markos? Stoller?
Another question. I recently spoke with Politics West editor Stephen Keating about the "Gang of Four" blog. You're one of those four, though I was asking about Ross Kaminsky's involvement. What sort of agreement do you have with the Denver Post to write there? Are there any restrictions on what you write? Any editing process? You've have arguments back and forth through this blog with both Kaminsky and in the past with David Harsanyi. Harsanyi stopped writing there for a time but is now back. What happened there (note I was one of the folks attacking Harsanyi's silly fact-less assertions at the time)?
