To The Unsung Commenter's!

I was thinking this weekend about what makes a blog successful. I know I've sometimes questioned why I keep at it, especially on the days when I work late, and only sit down at the computer around ten or eleven at night.

What makes a blog successful, is the people who take the time to comment on posts. Those comments are an indication of whether your post has hit a nerve or not.

Here's an example:

Alberta Girl said...
"What I enjoy most, is that often I am at work and can not comment, and then someone like Alberta Girl, Frmgrl or you, will come in and totally destroy some lefty poster/stalker who has left a comment that is way out of line."

Thanks! And it is my pleasure to take those lefties to task.... (I love that)

This is truly the final straw for me. In the past two years, how many times has the Conservative government done something truly great only to have it ignored by an MSM bent on being the mouthpiece for the latest liberal pseudo scandal.

The only good thing - there have been soooo many "scandals" that have blown up in the Liberals and the MSM's faces, that Canadians are actually starting to ignore them.

Think of all the polls that get put out hoping against hope that they will swing against the Tories and then they quickly disappear when they go horribly wrong.

It is time to keep notes, save comments, headlines, video and such for use whenever the Liberals and their MSM cohorts try to use a "found" document or video, or paper, or dead MP, or jailed woman, or former prime minister or.....

I know that I will be not only noting the bias, but I will be saving it on my computer.

This is a perfect example of people having the power to make changes. It's not the newspapers anymore, it's the everyday Canadian, finding their voice on blogs, on comments, on Facebook. Often, the comments become a blog, within the blog.

The commenter's gain a voice, their point of view gains power. THANK YOU, to all the unsung commenter's, who make the difference on a blog. Sometimes life intrudes and I can't comment, but it doesn't mean I don't appreciate your contributions and opinions. (That does not include my lefty stalker or people who insist on swearing).
