But Do You Love Me for My Mind?

Posted by Bill

Moonbat post ain't quite finished and I'm damn busy today (you know, the soul-sucking job that pays?), so light-no posting. In the meantime, a couple of things ...

1. Dorkafork is just freaking me right the Hell out with this John Kerry hamster meme.

2. The Japanese are just plain nuts.

3. I was one of the 50 bloggers that applied for press credentials to the Democratic National Convention. Supposedly, "an undetermined number will be selected based on originality, readership level and professionalism, said convention spokeswoman Lina Garcia." The only response that I got back was an e-mail that says:

We would be happy to accept any additional information that will aid us in
our decision-making process
.

I think this is a rejection, don't you? I wonder why ... maybe I should send them some examples of my John Kerry coverage. What do you think?

UPDATE: More wacky interculinary violence from the Japanese.

Send them information from your site meter and your WW11 memorial post.

Fabricate a massive bit of "pro-Kerry" satire and see if they're clever enough to realize that it's satire.

"We would be happy to accept any additional information that will aid us in our decision-making process."

Bet a bunch of crisp $20's would aid 'em up real nice.

Yes, Bill. Love you for your mind. Especially when it thinks about Moonbats.

Working on it ... waiting on some celebrity guest commentators ...

Okay, you drew me out with the "celebrity guest commentators" reference.

Oh, you weren't talking about me? I'm a "commenter," not a "commentator?" As long as you don't deny my celebrity, we're cool.

I wouldn't regard their email response as a rejection. I view that as a realization on their part that they have no clue how to decide which bloggers to give credentials.

I agree that your WWII posts would be excellent examples. Maybe some other less partisan posts, too. I mean, there's no reason to rub their noses in it. At least, not before you get the creds. ;)
