Obama - re him, his backround, character, temperament...

punditry - re infighting, positioning - of political bloggers - 24 hour news cycle ...

10.16. 08 go thr dlcs-main to add Obama or punditry tag where appropr, only take main tag off if not timely, not part of larger narrative might want to read thr all main tags for... narrative of the campaigns, but also (of course) of my reading about it...

pro-life ~ specifically for the (just a few) posts re prolife shld also mean against torture, against war where can avoid it. like hpotter or sopranos-end, this is a limited use tag for a specific topic of int to me. rather than: a tag naming a broad kind of intention, a relation to the pgmk.
~ eh it's only two posts, easily turned up by search. so just ..pro-life.. in title line. no tag.


ggl rdr
cannot replace tag.
have to scrolllllll to get to post in context of feed, where can edit tags. cannot do this from search, nor from the original post (as can in dlcs) bcs that is separate: in ggl rdr I am tagging my instance of the post in my feed. not the orig page. and if "share" a post (in order to add a note), that is yet another instance of it. the note does not appear on the post in my feed. and the tags do not appear on shared post (unless tagged there, additionally).

so, you have:
search: yields orig posts, on wh cannot operate, cannot go to that post in feed to tag.
feed, in wh tagged posts: can tag, does not show notes added in share
shared posts: does not show tags added in feed, does not allow you to edit the note you add.

and when you view all posts fr feed with a certain tag, order is messed up. I think. ordered by when tagged, not where were in feed.
and for shared items, these post when you share, not keeping order of feed. bcs its just like sending content to a blog, I guess, only it's a very limited blog platform, where you cannot edit your note later. you can only choose 'share' again, sending a new instance with a new note of that

just not well integrated.
I guess works well only as a reader, not as a marking context, a place to collect & organize.
so, just use to read, and ok to tag casually, but do not get bogged down, eg trying to organize all asllvn posts, at 50+ a day at lst some days that is not worthwhile.
just skim there, then get out, get back to dlcs as homebase.

also unsure: when asllvn deletes a post, does it remain in my feed, my infinitely scrollling feed (well, back as far as feed goes, I assume depending on when subscribed - but avail feeds hold posts from some distance in past, so eg my feed does not start w 10.14 but in September or perhaps even further?)


party politics - pleased w this tag. for anyth characterizing the Republicans, or the Democrats, or wrt who is liberal who conservative. or (also) re the 2-party system.

punditry - pleased with this also. as above. re political blogging, 24 hour news cycle, shillers for their party.

campaign tactics: 'joe' the 'plumber' is a tactic ~maybe repr a strategy~ so posts about him go here. and any posts re ads. re how campaign run.

prejudice

gay equality: incl current 'No on prop 8' posts along with whatever other posts on topic...

christianism ~ or, could be: religion. but I think the category I want is mostly re fundamentalist christian religion (as, per asllvn, perverting Republican party away fr conservatism)

z for other ~ a stand in for 'untagged' so that could look at posts without any of above tags
x for of not m int to me

Palin, McCain, Obama calm
