Fred Barnes, in the upcoming Weekly Standard, writes in “The Day the Emails Died” that Peter Wehner, through his many White House years,

emailed ideas and information to several hundred journalists and writers and intellectuals and policy entrepreneurs. His missives became known as ‘Wehnergrams,’ but there will be no more of them. Friday, August 3, was his last day at the White House. . . . The president will miss Wehner enormously. I suspect he will be missed at least as much by the readers of his emails. Even if they didn’t agree with him or Bush, they knew they were hearing from a remarkable and intellectually honest man.

I agree, of course, with Barnes, but would like to point out that Wehner’s communications need not be missed at all: as of Monday he is a contributor to this blog.
