OP-IP: Top Ten OP-IP Blog Posts of 2013

As 2013 comes to a close, the mainstream media, partially in an effort to reflect on the past year and partially to fill a news void in the period between Christmas and New Year's, compile a year in review. We are once again inundated with stories of Edward Snowden, the healthcare.gov website roll-out debacle, etc. Here at OP-IP, we too, look back on the memorable blog posts of 2013.
