From a piece by Linda Hirshman<\/a> in Sunday’s Washington Post<\/em>:<\/p>\n

The reaction started within a day or two of my article appearing on the American Prospect Web site. “Everyone’s Talking about Linda Hirshman’s ‘Homeward Bound,’ ” said “Alas, a blog.” “I was thinking of writing something” about it, the blogger continued, “but first I thought I’d see what other bloggers were saying . . . and that turned out to take up all my available blogging time.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Geez, I get quoted in the WaPo<\/em>, and it’s such a lame quote. Oh, well.<\/p>\n
