I'm wondering what other news junkies use for their US political information.

I like to get information from both sides of the spectrum, so I scan both left- leaning and right-leaning blogs.

The ones I avoid like the plague are the ones that are so biased on way to be blind to the truth... a good example on the right would be Rush Limbaugh, or some of the Fox News sites.

My main right-leaning blog is Drudge, who is quite right leaning but also fair most of the time. For my left-leaning blog I have been using the Huffington Post, but I need an alternative because its getting to be like Limbaugh for the left, an unacceptable ignorance to opposing views.

Any suggestions?
