Matthew Yglesias is a fellow at the Center for American Progress. His first book, with the working title Heads in the Sand: Iraq and the Strange Death of Liberal Internationalism, scheduled to be published next spring by John Wiley and co., deals with the Democratic Party's struggle to find a post-9/11 foreign policy, focusing primarily on the rise and (hopefully) fall of the liberal hawk movement.

Previously, he was a staff writer at The American Prospect and an Associate Editor at TPM Media, where he contributed to the group blogs Tapped and TPMCafe. His main blog, now at The Atlantic, has existed in various forms since the dark ages of the blogosphere in January 2002.

His writing has appeared in The Guardian, Slate, The New Republic, and The Washington Monthly, and he is a regular on BloggingHeads.tv and makes the occasional radio or television appearance.

Desperately out of touch with the American mainstream, Yglesias was born and raised in Manhattan and studied philosophy at Harvard where he was editor in chief of The Harvard Independent, a campus alternative weekly.

His latest writings can be found on the Matthew Yglesias blog.

Activisting While Pink

By Matthew Yglesias

Jun 28 2007, 3:36 PM ET Comment



Excellent. I thought I might never get a chance to re-use my painstakingly assembled (I used Seashore, a neat little open source ap) "pink" image (pictured above) but apparently the Concerned Women of America thinks its hypocritical of Code Pink to associate itself with this girliest of colors while they "advocate policies that are very aggressive and more often associated with men."

Hilarious. It's not the first time I've felt that if CWA didn't exist, the feminist blogosphere would have to invent it.
