You need a good BS detector when reading political blogs. Just in the article above, for example, I count four factual errors after skimming it once. And that's aside from the blatant conservative bias that could only find a home on Fox News.
Look for verification, citation, evidence; look for proof of what's said. Once that's established, take the article for what it's worth. Some blogs are absolutely astounding, and some are astoundingly stupid. Like any other media, really.
