Ozblog

Somewhere, over the rainbow, a blog is born. A blog for Kansas. A blog for America. A blog by a reporter with a difficult-to-pronounce last name. But most importantly, a blog that is AMERICA'S ONLY PLACE dedicated to the vital intersection of politics and Sunflowers. The Heartland gods nod in wise approval.

Thomas Frank, corrected

Oops! Just got this from a loyal reader:

"You are giving Mr. Frank too much credit...
http://www.nytimes.com/2004/08/22/books/bestseller/0822besthardnonfiction.html

His book is #12 from what I gather...by posting he's #10, you are truly dissing the Nature Boy Ric Flair and his autobiography of his days as the penultimate professional wrestler."


Sorry! I think I was working off the Aug. 15 list, not the Aug. 22. The writer also notes that the bulk of the Times' best-seller list consists of anti-Bush screeds. There's gold in them-dar screeds -- and apparently some of it's in Wichita, where I've been told Mr. Frank is appearing again on Saturday. He's going to be at DemoFest, where Lee Jones is expected to get the party's Senate nomination.
