Pieter at Peaktalk has posted a brief overview of the political career of Pim Fortuyn, the Dutch conservative-libertarian politician who was gunned down by an animal rights extremist in 2002. No excerpts; go Read The Whole Thing™.

Posting will be light through Sunday evening, for the following reasons:

1. I need to finish my Midwest paper.

2. The Red-Blue Game is this afternoon.

3. I still need to finish up the promised LSblog work behind-the-scenes (mainly on the admin interface). If you read the RSS feed, you may have already noted the Open Directory categories that are now associated with each entry; that’s one of the new under-the-hood features (particularly interesting if you're interested in aggregating this content—I'll post some thoughts on that soon).

More blogagge soon…
