Rising Hegemon (www.rising-hegemon.blogspot.com) is an American political blog of progressive orientation comprised of four bloggers, all using pseudonyms: Attaturk, DeDurkheim, Champollion, and Res Ipsa Loquitur. Attaturk, also known as Atta J. Turk, is the most prolific of the quartet. The blog began in March 2004, apparently as soon as Attaturk was placed in work-release.

Attaturk's style varies between sarcasm and angry rants with very little in between. He originally did a great deal of picture captioning but does less of such blogging now and does more comedy sketches, often historically based, or song parodies. The other three do varying forms of "snark" with DeDurkheim being more popular culture based, Champollion more legal pieces and Res Ipsa Loquitur political.

Rising Hegemon's motto is: Angst filled missives on the fate of American Democracy -- half-hearted or completely botched attempts at humor and constant, unadulterated whining!

Attaturk also has another more sexually suggestive or offensive blog called Rising Hegemon:After Dark that he co-blogs with another Watertiger who runs the progressive snark blog Dependable Renegade.
