Bob Somerby (Daily Howler) going on long Sabbatical, may not return!
Edited on Fri Oct-10-03 04:04 PM by trumad
Man that would suck... But me-thinks a savy Dem Campaign has hired him to watch their back...

SABBATICAL: Note the cranky tone of this piece? We’re totally sick of our cranky tone too! For that reason, we’re planning to take a significant break, from which we may not even return! (To quote Arnold Schwarzenegger: “Yes, it’s true…”) <snip>

1. I believe he has done this before - and in any case he deserves
a vacation!

3. Doesn't he still do a standup comedy routine?
I always heard that Howler was a kind of hobby but not his daytime job. He's also mentioned something about writing a book a few times. He'll be missed, especially for his ruthless attention to detail.
