Newsbusters – because media bias is the biggest problem conservatives MUST address before we can truly reach the American people with our message.

NBC, ABC, CBS & CNN – because its nice to see what the Obama Administration’s talking points on a subject are going to be, before his position is even announced.

Aside from the people that maintain separate blogs in addition to their stuff they put here at RedState (like Moe, etc), these are my essentials:

Ace of Spades HQ
Ann Althouse’s blog
American Issues Project
American Power
Cafe Hayek
Cato@Liberty
The Club for Growth
Daily Uprising
The New Atlantis’s Diagnosis blog
Flopping Aces
Gateway Pundit
Greg Mankiw’s blog
IMAO – One of Fred Thompson’s favorites
Instapundit
Iowahawk
James Pethokoukis’ Political Risk
JammieWearingFool
John Goodman’s Health Policy Blog – he has some of the best free market healthcare policy experts (beside the two from Cato) blogging there

I’ve got a ton of other ones that I read, but these are the ones that are necessary. The secret to it all: Google Reader!

Some have already mentioned others I read , so I’ll just put down what hasn’t been said yet to prevent duplication.

I’d only add Gates of Vienna which I turn to for a daily dose of the Islamization of Europe. They are the canary in the coal mine regarding Islam and the effects of mass immigration.

Let Freedom Ring Blog (Great interviews of politicians)
Hot Air That’s a no-brainer.

Gateway Pundit The best coverage of the Middle East
SCSUScholars Great econ blog, Great education blog.

Many other good ones, as mentioned in comments above, but I consider these three my “gold standard”

Rush’s site has a transcript every evening of his daily show, which if you don’t have the time to listen or don’t want to make the time, is a nice way to take in his show in a short amount of time.

I know Rush is usually commenting on stuff that has already hit the blogosphere, but he still has great insight and analysis IMO, and the guy is just down-right inspirational at times. He carries a lot of the water that no one else will, and is a true blooded, unapologetic American patriot.

Richsrd Fernandez runs a superb, literate blog. He’s a ex- antiMarcos revolutionary who understands the left’s thuggery from up close and personal. Posters are knowledgeable (mostly).

that if you want to know what’s really going on in the world, you need to read Redstate, NRO, Drudge, Hotair, and Ace every day. Each provides its unique perspective and style.

I have many others beyond this in my RSS, but the majors are:

Instapundit
Ameripundit
American Thinker
CentreRight (provides a great look at UK politics)
Club for Growth Blog
Newsalert
Riehl World View
Southern Appeal
Weekly Standard

Perhaps the most practical feed I’ve used lately is Daily Oil Price. It usually updates once per day after the markets close and lets you know what the price per barrel is. http://www.prices-oil.org/

So many I didn’t know about. I’m going to have to bookmark this page and visit these sites.

Here’s one that’s our only local alternative to the liberal rag that’s messed up Tulsa. They’re always good for conservative articles, and news that doesn’t just depress.

http://www.tulsabeacon.com/

http://austrianeconomists.typepad.com/weblog/
www.smallwarsjournal.com
http://www.reason.com/blog/

So many great sites being listed here, you could just bookmark this one page in your blog folder and be done with it.

Of course, that could have been the basis of the idea anyway .

Cocoon is the on-line slang for ideological echo chambers. People tend to isolate themselves and read people who only think like them.

I learn so much knowing and understanding the real enemies and how they think and what they care about. KNOW YOUR ENEMY:

I’m not joking:

Best centrist Site: Real Clear Politics
Mainstream Dem Site: Politico
Favorite Dem: Kaus Files (highly insightful)
During elections: Kos (Its like reading the enemy’s game plan)
Fading fast: (Sully boy, used to read him, but he’s off his rocker now)
Rising fast: The Nation (Left, but principled Left. Will attack Dems)
Hate To, but Have To: HuffPo (Quickly becoming the #1 Left site and you can see how they sensationalize and spin there very quickly)

I guess living in Boston, being educated by liberals, working with liberals, having liberal friends and family members and being completely being surrounded by liberals has honestly left me disappointed by some members of the conservatives conversations on-line.

There is a lot of echo-chamber redundancy; a lot of naivety about the Dem Party, liberals and Marxists; a lot jingoism; a lot of idealism. I’ve always been better at logic and argument than my liberal friends when discussing politics because they too “cocoon”. They live in a liberal echo chamber and they suffer for it. KNOW YOUR ENEMY.

It’s pretty much got it all (blogs, video), wrapped around a common theme of maintaining core conservative values and reclaiming the party. I was invited to post there a while back, so you know it’s pretty special )

I know you’ve had quite a few suggestions, and that most of the linked blogs cover politics from a national perspective. I’d suggest that you also include blogs that cover education from a national perspective. I know that Obama’s move to nationalize the public schools, and the disaster that is our public schools, isn’t everyone’s cup of tea, and many people simply don;t consider the public schools to be government entities, but at both the state and local level, the public schools take almost 50% of state and local tax revenue.

Here are two blogs I go to frequently for the latest news on the education front. The other education blogs I look at tend to be local and are probably relevant to people in those areas but not nationally.

http://ednews.org/

http://www.edexcellence.net/template/index.cfm

you can get an add-on called speed dial which allows you to see the front pages on one screen, and even have them update at the same or different intervals. Easy to setup. That way you can give a quick look to see if the front page on each has changed without going there.

You can even put them into different groups based on categories.

http://www.therealrevo.com

Someone mentioned Neal Boortz above, but gave the front page of his site; personally I just go directly to his ‘Nealz Nuze’ page:

http://boortz.com/nealz_nuze/index.html

Every weekday he has commentary on a few different subjects in the news, and a Reading Assignments set of links that cover a lot of territory. Boortz is more libertarian than conservative/Republican, but on nearly every issue but abortion he fits in well here.

Yeah, I know, people around here seem to have a beef with the woman, but I rather enjoy her cunning, whit and sarcasm. She is a female version of Dennis Miller, yeah that was a stretch, but she sure is easy on the eyes, plus the wife loves her so win-win for me.

here are a few web pathways less traveled (apologies if there are any Hunters):

I don’t believe that anyone listed Blackfive, the best of the milblogs with a host of excellent contributers.

Also, Bloodletting.blog, an excellent commentary from a ER doc.

Say, about once a month. More if you have the time…

Drop by
www.lordsofthebattlefield.com
and go through the Knee Jerk Saloon.

We don’t really discuss all that much, and we’re slow about getting to new stuff, but we can get pretty indepth and any thread can go off in any direction.
Besides, if you ever need something to brighten your day, the Off Topic forum is right next to it. You’d probably love the picture-based “Beat This” thread…

Apologies if these have already been mentioned:

http://dirtyrottenscoundrels.wordpress.com/

http://newine.wordpress.com/

The ones I have that are even vaguely apropos (I have at least a couple dozen more otherwise) are:

Blog DeVore (although it seems they broke the feed it had once when I wasn’t watching, so I haven’t read anything in ages)
Courtoons
Greg Mankiw
Green Eyeshades, Congressman John Campbell’s blog
RedState front page (duh)
RedState California feed
Shadow Government
The Legal Workshop
The Volokh Conspiracy

Of these Mankiw, Shadow Government, and Volokh are probably the most worth reading: Mankiw because an economist’s thoughts reveal the flaws in plausible public policy (moreso for the left than for the right, I believe, but still enough to keep me on my toes); Shadow Government for thoughts on foreign policy from non-armchair generals; and Volokh for a libertarian perspective on politics – one certainly worth keeping in mind if we are to attempt to draw them back into the fold, which I think is unquestionably worth doing even if we have to adjust policies to accommodate them.

I read The Volokh Conspiracy…SCOTUSblog…Flopping Aces…Jawa Report…you wouldn’t be interested in the others…

http://onenewsnow.com/

and at the risk of getting yelled at by any number of people, there is always (for an opposite perspective):

http://www.fivethirtyeight.com/

I find myself in the same boat as Erick, so I’m glad to see all these great suggestions. I look forward to checking them out. Can’t offer any new ones (except for my own blog, of course ) as you all have severely beaten me to the punch.
