The Conservative Wahoo Welcomes The Hammer

I've just sent the email through Blogger to The Hammer extending the invitation to him to join the blogging team here at the CW.  Those few--those happy few--who tuned in to the radio program got to know The Hammer more deeply than one can from a comment made here and there on the blog, and I gained a serious appreciation for his views and his knowledge of the history/politics nexus.  No doubt, this blog will never be the same--and I mean that in a good way.

    Just move to NY and marry the guy already. I don't understand your man-crush.

    nongeste that's a horrible thing to say. Especially when CW just returned from a trip to New Orleans, the gayest city in the South.

    Anyway, more to the point, I am deeply honored by the invitation. I will strive to maintain the high standards of this blog and look forward to provoking intellectual discourse among the fine people who frequent this forum.

    So, get ready...the Hammer is about to drop!

    We were supposed to strive to maintain high standards? Oh, sorry. I'll try to do better at that CW. Either way, welcome Hammer. Glad to have you picking up my considerable slack.

    I'm aflutter with anticipation of the Hammer's first effort.

    I've got my lawyer on speed-dial.

    Welcome Hammer! I too am looking forward to your first post. I guess CW didn't feel his other guest contributors were cutting the mustard...choke back sob...

    I've always said I'm the Monty Python of blogs, tons of crap but when I'm good, I'm really good.

    Hammer--you'll note that now that you are part of the blogging team, your comments get posted automatically--that is, I can only remove them ex post facto.

    Is it OK if I find hilarity in the fact that CW felt compelled to notify Hammer that there's no longer a comment filter?

    I know, I'll be good. If I want to act the fool I'll do it on FB...or the comment section on Politico.

    But you are aware there is an ancient Western tradition of using obscenity and vulgarity in literature and political discourse? Used appropriately it can be a VERY effective tool (no pun intended).

    But, having said that, I'll try to keep it between the fence rows.
