Promenade your partners...

I may just give up drug war blogging some day and concentrate on flora and fauna and microwave cooking. When I started this blog it was pretty much Pete and me. Now there's a dozen really good blogs doing consistent policy reform news. We're getting louder folks. That can only be a good thing.

Over at Kos, one of our favorite bloggers thehim from ReLoad, has his regular Drugwar roundup diary posted and he covers all the drugs right down to alcohol and tobacco.

When I started LOS, there weren't that may sources much less outlets for drug related news. Now there's more than a dozen blogs can even cover but more importantly it's crossing over into the general political dialogue. Every day you see more and more mainstream political pundits, making the connections between the war on some drugs and the general assault on civil liberities.

Don't tell anybody, but I think we're turning a corner towards reform.
