Although I certainly wouldn’t mind getting linked on Instapundit, I have never really given the whole idea too much thought either way. I did email him once, but never got a reply and didn’t give it much concern after that. So far I’ve gotten linked on a bunch of my favorite blogs, big and small, which has been wonderful. The only one really huge blog I crave to be linked on is Michelle Malkin’s, but I’m realistic enough not to hang my hopes on that.

In response to your Hugh Hewitt comment…as a regular listener to his show and frequent visitor to his blog, I would guess the reasons you don’t get much link love with him are:

1) You are far too critical of Bush. I love Hugh and agree with him more often than not, but I do think that he is far too much of a Bush apologist. To this day I can’t think of one thing Bush has done that Hugh has been critical of.

2) You don’t seem to write very often on political things. You focus much more on religious and cultural issues (and when you do delve into politics, it is to critique Bush). Hugh is a political commentator first and foremost, hence no reason to link to your blog.

Just a couple opinions from your average troll.

Reasons why a blogger may choose not to link to bloggers in the sidebar: blogrolls tend to get too long, some bloggers may be offended if you de-link them to make room for others, etc.

You should do like a weekly “link-love fest” or something to that effect. Phil Johnson on his blog does “blog spotting”, similar idea of spreading the link love.
