More than two years have passed since we started this blog (and even longer since I became involved with the Patriot as the "token libertarian" in a band of merry conservatives), and it is finally time for me to say good-bye to all of our loyal and not-so-loyal readers, colleagues, and friends.
It has been a bothersome, bizarre, controversial ride, but it has also been fun, funny, exciting, groundbreaking, and delicious. Now and then, it has even been enlightening. I will miss the Patriot dearly, and I wouldn't trade the experience for the world.
I've gotten to know a lot of great people while writing and blogging here. You know who you are. I can't name you all. I thank you heartily for tolerating my oddness, and I wish you all the best of luck in the future. Do keep in touch.
May the road rise up to meet you, all of you, always.

you'll be missed
A vastly superior writer, opinionater, and watchdog than I could ever hope to be. Your contributions and insight will be sorely missed, Bill.
One hopes that the 3 or 4 people necessary to fill your shoes will step up.
You're leaving? That's too bad. You did an awesome job here.
Goodbye Bill. GL in all your future endeavors.
Dearly beloved, we gather here to pay our respects to Bill Flanigen. He was a great man and a true Patriot. He will be greatly missed.
I will miss you Bill and your SA commentary
When should we expect "gwpatriotwriteremeritus.blogspot.com to start up?
ebk beats off to the west wing...

The Patriot accepts anonymous comments [unlike the draconian editors at the Hatchet]. However, we strongly prefer that you USE A NAME. Mostly it's because we don't take anonymous comments seriously, but it's also because we hate bullshit. Have a nice day.
