Good news for Mickey Kaus: I'm taking a vacation for two weeks starting tonight. Better news for you guys: my guest-bloggers will be three in number. They're Ana-Marie Cox, the former star of Wonkette and now the Washington editor of Time.com; Michael Totten, who'll be blogging directly from the Middle East; and David Weigel, one of the sharpest young bloggers in the libertarian universe. This trio will be a blogging ensemble until Labor Day, when I hope to return all rested up. Give them a warm welcome.
