Blogabout

Thought we'd start doing some blog-abouts, things you may have missed and might want to blog about. We're going to try and find articles and news that are brand new or not getting a lot of attention. We'll be doing them on the Read My Lipstick Network blog and the Completely Conservative Network blog. We won't double post, so there will be different topics on Completely Conservative. Let us know if you find our blogabouts helpful. Send us a blog post where you've used one of our blogabout topics and we'll highlight your blog on here with credit, links, etc., etc.

Here are today's:

AP Newsbreak: Obama looks at climate engineering
The president's new science adviser said Wednesday that global warming is so dire, the Obama administration is discussing radical technologies to cool Earth's air. John Holdren told The Associated Press in his first interview since being confirmed last month that the idea of geoengineering the climate is being discussed. One such extreme option includes shooting pollution particles into the upper atmosphere to reflect the sun's rays. Holdren said such an experimental measure would only be used as a last resort.

New Conservative Network: Completely Conservative

We receive a lot of requests from conservatives wanting to join the Read My Lipstick Network who don't write about politics. They write about health, faith, being a mom, home schooling, daily life and other subjects, all from a conservative viewpoint.

To be a member of the Read My Lipstick Network blog content must be at least 90% political. We have to turn away some great conservatives simply because they may keep up with politics, they may vote the right way and live the conservative life, but they have blogs that only contain a smattering of political talk, if any.

So, after batting it around for a while, we've decided to start up another, an additional, as separate, conservative network called "Completely Conservative".

We are NOT doing away with the Read My Lipstick Network and it will remain our main focus.

Completely Conservative will include political blogs, but it will also include blogs about various aspects of life written BY conservatives. Life from a conservative point of view if you will.

We're setting up the blogroll and have a logo already, plus we have a blog (completely empty at the moment, http://completelyconservative.blogspot.com ;-)

If you are a member of the Read My Lipstick Network and would like to join Completely Conservative, please send an email to readmylipstick at live dot com. We'll zap you the info on the blogroll and / or logo location so you can add it to your blogs. We know you're all conservatives, so you're automatically approved.
