And then I found your post, Jon, and those two sentences, and I wonder if there's something in the photo. Why do I feel the overwhelming sense of loss when I didn't know him at all?

That's high praise indeed, coming from one of America's foremost conservative pundits. <BR/><BR/>I was thinking of assembling later this week in my weekly blog whoring post a list of the blogs with the best tributes to Mr. Gilliard but it seems that my work has been done for me. Good job, sir, good job.<BR/><BR/>We'll all be poorer with Steve's passing and at a time when we need all the loud, elquent, impassioned voices that we can get.jurassicporkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01673461210301442978noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19959879.post-6335469772753775612007-06-03T14:00:00.000-07:002007-06-03T14:00:00.000-07:00I think this is a great tribute.

Here's the thing about Gilliard,<BR/>I read him. <BR/>He wasn't afraid, probably didn't give a darn if you read him or not, but we did.<BR/>I didn't always agree with what he said, but by God, he had the right to say it and he did.<BR/>And I like that, that lack of fear or refusing to falling into line with perceived conventions. He did what he wanted to.And I found that to be pretty groovy.<BR/>I didn't know him, but I read his words because many times they resonated with me.<BR/>And, for me at least, that's important.Newscomahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06314104886871823355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19959879.post-61140894566968844872007-06-03T13:40:00.000-07:002007-06-03T13:40:00.000-07:00A beautiful tribute, Mr. Swift, written with class...A beautiful tribute, Mr. Swift, written with class and style.
