Little Green Footballs goes down for several hours every day, without exception, and has been doing this for weeks. This apparently has something to do with the unending series of updates about which LGF owner Charles Johnson posts every day. That is all well and good but, frankly, LGF's endless technical failures and outages are making it look ridiculous. They are the subject of much mirth and derision at Kos, DU, and Huffpo, none of which ever seem to be down or even slow.

Elsewhere, the Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler is so screwed up it cannot accept the same password twice. It is necessary to re-register and get a new password each and every time you want to sign on, a minor inconvenience once but a major and pointless irritation as a routine procedure.

Rantburg itself is down during the late night hours more often than not.

Only Free Republic, the often embarrassing paleocon peanut gallery of creationists, gay-bashers, "Arkancide" conspira-loons, UFOols, and the Hate Hillary cult, seems to be able to match lefty tech prowess. It is not really a blog in any case.

I used to make fun of lefty sites for being "powered by 12 volt organic solar cells hung from the roof of the Unabomber's outhouse." Apparently the lefties got the message and our side did not.
