I've been a reader of the Dish for 15 years. I've always been astounded at both the quality and quantity of writing Andrew produces. I wouldn't be surprised if wrote more than any other blogger (among those who are actually read).

One thing I've admired him for was he was one of the few high profile supporters of the Iraq war who changed his mind and publicly announced it.

I can't say I'm surprised, his announcement is perfectly understandable!
