At last! A “face” to put with the name and public recognition for one of the greatest blogger pundits I’ve ever had the pleasure to read, time and time again.

I began to suspect that “Digby” is a woman recently (love it!) but could never verify it until now. Why does that fact that she is make me so happy? It just does.

What a wonderful insightful, articulate voice you bring to the discourse. The power of your writing has brought me to tears often and inspired me to do more than weep. I keep going back to the well for more. I am so grateful to you, Digby.

I feel so sorry for people in this country who don’t even know the netroots exist. Especially when I know that they have an internet connection. It is really sad to me.

I TOTALLY AGREE

I’m feeling very Forrest Whittaker in Crying Game right now.

I hang my head in shame that it never even remotely occurred to me Digby might be a woman. I feel like someone’s just rearranged the furniture in my brain.

Anyway, great job Digby!

I too am embarrassed that it never crossed my mind that Digby was a woman - I’ve been a reader and financial supporter for years and am SO happy that she’s come forward! Congratulations!

I think Ricki Lee Jones would call that speech the “El Supremo”!

Hey - not sure if anyone else beat me to it, but I went ahead and transcribed Digby’s speech for anyone interested.

I swear I never had a clue. Great cover, Digby, and thanks for all you do.

Congratulations Digby, Jane, Marcy and all the other bloggers! I can just see the Richard Cohens, Broders and Joe Kleins becoming increasingly irrelevant.
Wonderful, wonderful speech.

We’re so used to listening to Jane and watching what she’s doing that we overlook how stunningly beautiful she is.

What an amazing video of Digby, Jane, Marcy, and so many other wise folks.

There’s an inner glow that comes with a clean conscience. That twinkle in the eye is the most beautiful of attributes.
