1. Greg of California Hammonds is sponsoring a comment fundraiser TODAY with funds raised going toward the National Breast Cancer Foundation’s programs for education and low-cost or free mammograms for low-income women.
For every comment received, he or one of the sponsors will donate $1. So, can you please make the time to stop by and comment, or even better, post a link for his cause?
Done.
2. Jeff, If you get a chance today, go see my post to ‘SouthparkRepublicans.’You inspired it.
Sure. And for balance, how about this:
3. First of all, I apologize for the linkwhore, but all of you either linked to my Kid Rock stuff or I found you in trackbacks. The point is you all agred that the GOP was wrong here…
Well it ain’t over. We might have a chance to get heard. I’m not saying Kid Rock is worth a big battle, but the message that the “wrong kind of people” nonsense should not be tolerated can get through if we act fast. THAT is worth a couple minutes to phone, fax or email a message to the Inauguration committee and the RNC.
Check it out here.
Sure thing. Then there’s this:
I’ve been flying from Seattle to Chicago most of today. Posted my take on the John Fund article here.
Consider it linked. And finally,
Jeff,
Linked—though I notice I was not given the same courtesy, despite having posted a Mary Mapes piece myself yesterday. Oh well. He was shooting for bigger fish, it looks like.
But it is better to give than to receive. And as a CITIZEN JOURNALIST, GIVING IS MY CALLING!

update: But wait, there’s more!
If you who are covering and quoting the Thornburgh/Boccardi report on the CBS memo scandal you might be interested in this web version of the PDF.
The web version of the report I’ve created allows you to specify the page of the report to open in the URL string. For example, if you want to link to page 121 of the PDF, you can use the following syntax: http://wizbangblog.com/docs/cbs_report/index.php?page=121
The page number is the PDF page number, not the page number printed in the text of the report.
Note: I’ll be putting the report appendixes up in the same format, and placing the links to the paginated version in this Wizbang post.
Enjoy!
The word is now spread. And spreading. CHARGE!
****
update 2: More!
Little Dan Rather visits the principal’s office.
I’m not on this person’s “recommended sites”—nor does s/he bother to leave a name. But no matter. I link anyway. See? Watch me GIVE!
****
update 3: More on Kid Rock and Christian values from Dan Riehl. Question: does anyone GIVE more than me?
I sent an email to Mr. Jenkins on the Kid Rock issue but I copied the email address off the site instead of submitting through their site, which I’m sure would quickly place me on 1000 evil mailing lists.
You might want to consider that if you were thinking about joining in…
What, no link to my post about as a citizen, I want a jelly sandwich post from yesterday?
Certainly you’re one of the three people who has read it, since you alluded to it in your I AM A CITIZEN JOURNALIST post.
Yes. Yes! By all means, link to your own posts in the comments section, if I’ve forgotten to link you above. BECAUSE I AM HERE TO GIVE!
COME ONE, COME ALL! CITIZEN JOURNALISTS UNITE.
I’d like to link to the fact that I’ve said nothing about anything today on my blog.
But I don’t have an URL for that…
Of course, with “food”, the Turing test below reminds me that my lunch is getting cold.
Thank you for posting a link, Jeff, like the gentleman you are.
OKAY – FIRST THINGS FIRST.
1. That California Hammonds guy gets a gold star in my book. What a creative way to give to a cause and spread awareness.
2. Rightwingsparkle…is hot. I had no idea it was even possible, good looking republicans. Good luck with that. Or something.
3. What’s with all the caps Jeff? You keep shouting stuff about your MASTER and being a CITIZEN JOURNALIST. Lay off the Beam.
Shouting is the best way to assert your PLACE IN THE UNIVERSE. I am seeing, “universe? I am here. NOTICE MY CONTRIBUTIONS TO YOUR BETTERMENT.”
It’s invigorating.
All this time I thought I was better off without a master. But now I realize I’m just a miserable stray blog.
I WANT A MASTER!
(And he better pay me large amounts of money for the privilege.)
Many thank, oh wise one, and pardon the fauz pas. I’ve now reciprocated with the appropriate link to your Mary Mapes post, and, of course, I’ve linked to Protein Wisdom as well
And BTW, you don’t need to remind me to add Protein Wisdom to my blogroll every time I leave a comment. I did that a long time ago, so lay off already.
RWS may be a hot mom, but all of that THINK OF THE CHILDREN!(tm) stuff turns me off like a cold shower.
And the linked post is a train wreck. You can’t open an argument with “we’re a big-tent!” and then close with “but you people are the friends of my enemies.” Sheesh!
I didn’t even read the words on the page, Uncle Squid. I’m totally a picture person. That’s why I come to PW, there aren’t that many words to read most of the time.
Uhhh, Mr. Shank, there are plenty of very good-looking Republican women around.
There is nothing wrong with this sentence
Shank must not have been around the other day when Darleen showed her boobies.
There is something wrong with the Turing test. The one for my last post was either when it should have been both.
On the subject of the Wisbang posting of the CBS documents, does anyone know which appendix or appendices have the scans of the original bogus Killian letters?
I saw someone say that the PDF scans of the documents were MUCH better than the scan from the faxes which started all this.
Please let me know.
Also, If CBS had these high quality “original” photocopies, the fact that they didn’t release better scans in early September says alot about how bad CBS botched this whole deal.
Thanks
Uncle Squid!!! Stop putting words in my mouth! I DID NOT say enemies. I do not think of those who differ from me as enemies. If you ever read my blog you would know that.
Shank, have you been to the South?? Good God! Goodlooking Republican women are EVERYWHERE!
But.. thanks…*blush*
I’ll keep trying to have “luck” with that…
And Rae, your hot too….
And I mean that in a totaly non lesbian way…
Awwww, thanks RWS :D I accept in a totally non-lesbian way, too ;p And return compliment in the same manner in which it was extended.
RWS’ post led me to a thought: Judge not, lest ye be judged.
Some folks have forgotten that in their myopic zeal to label certian “types” of people as beneath them.
JimK, and who do you see judging?
Yeah, well if they weren’t married, I’d be proud to have either RWS or Rae beneath me any time.
And I say that in a totally heterosexual way…
OR above me. I’m no missionary.
Just in case my wife is reading this to check up on me, I want to reiterate that I am totally without any opinions of “hotness” of any of the female commenters here.
Totally.
The male ones too.
“JimK, and who do you see judging?”
You. Your entire post is one large judgement, and your closing comment bears that out. Your follow-up about wishing no one would buy porn only solidified it for me. Please see my response to you on your site for a more pointed question in this regard.
I just realized your from Rightthoughts and doing the letter writing campaign to make sure Kid Rock performs.
Sorry, but just wishing men would not buy porn is not judging.
Now if I had called those who buy porn “scummy ignorant sexual wierdos in need of therapy” Then THAT would be judging.
But I didn’t.
Just saying. Sorry if that touches a nerve.
Nice. You just tried to denigrate and marginalize me by inferring that my reason for responding the way I did is because I buy porn. You did it on your site too.
But you’re not judging, right?
For the record, I have purchased porn, and I have a subscription to Playboy. It ain’t for the pictures, honey. Four second on Google gets me a thousand times more porn than I would ever know what to do with. That is not the issue. The issue is looking down your nose at “those types.”
Your entire rant is one big “Who let the dirty man into my clubhouse” rant.
Ever see Caddyshack II? The crappy one with Jackie Mason? Kid Rock is Jack Hartounian. You’re Chandler Young.
<i>”For the record, I have purchased porn, and I have a subscription to Playboy”</i>
Then I wasn’t judging, I was just right.
And think about JimK, if I looked my nose down on “dirty men” why would I love Jeff so much?
Maybe it’s because he may be naughty, but he is funny..oh….and he isn’t a jerk either.
I just love that about him too.
Yeah, now I’m a jerk who hates you because I buy porn.
It’s easier to marginalize me than to think about what I said, isn’t it?
“Hate” is such a strong word.
Even worse than “judging,” don’t you think?
Love to ridicule Canadians?
Join my club. Today’s entry:
Canadian Disaster relief team shows up two weeks late and not needed.
Anything to pin the tail on someone else’s donkey, eh RWS?
RWS – This seems an appropriate time for me to say that I think you are blogolicious – with all the same caveats as to my sincere platonism in that regard – as expressed throughout this thread.
And I received what you wrote in your post – like a “present” – ‘cause that’s what my spambuster word is …
Cheers!
I am also in awe that Jeff has achieved GIVING nirvana. What a guy!
And I mean that with all sincere platonism as well.
I have not seen it in all my “days” – yep.
Jeff, since you’re in a giving mood, any chance of Six Meat Buffet squeezing into your blogroll? I’ve had you on my daily reads for quite some time, and that’s where you’ll stay. I’m not too proud to beg.
Sincerely,
Mary Mapes’ Vibrator Collection
Sure, why not? Even though I’m but a clown to you – a glorified, hyperverbal monkey – whereas Beautiful Atrocities is art, I’m happy to add you to my blogroll, Preston.
Because as a CITIZEN JOURNALIST, IT’S ALL ABOUT THE GIVING!
Well, thank you MC….*smooch* (I hate using that smiley smooch thing, because it just looks scary)
JimK, well..if the ass fits….
sorry, just couldn’t resist.
How about a truce?
I’m just a mere reader. I have no blog of my own. But if you could link me back to myself, that would make me feel more part of this whole whoring/pimping link thing. Since you’re in the giving mood and all.
RWS – Mmmmmm … I shall not wash that spot until the lipstick fades.
“How about a truce?”
An ‘agree to disagree?’ Sure enough. We both have a belief, and we argue passionately for it.
Geez, Jeff, sorry but this isn’t “giving.” Giving would be if you could get Rae and RWS all juiced up on half a case of malt liquor and picked up the phone and said, “Hey Dan, I kinda got this problem you can help me out with, Buddy. Any chance you can come right over?” Now, for that, I would be forever in your debt, as well as an admirer of your artistry, shall we say?
Of course, as that is not going to ever happen – and I’d be a dead man here in my home in NJ if it did, I guess I’ll just have to keep reading and enjoying your witty and interesting verbal and pictorial benevolence. Now, if only I could just get you to use that stike out command more for the naughty bits, I’d feel so much better.
Actually, Jeff, you’re both 21st-century digital ART, but since he does so much Days of our Lives stuff, I figure his really must be some type of performance art, otherwise it would have to be called something less flattering.
But keep in mind, all this analysis comes from a two-bit hack southern redneck slack-jawed gawker-type. In other words it ain’t worth much.
Thanks for the link, citizen journalist.
I found this thread by searching “armadillo donkey republican porn” and I am mildly disappointed. Post the pics!
Judging this and that, hot Republicans like RWS (memo to doubters…have you seen Fox news? All the good looking women are Republicans), we need more on giving, like the time Jeff gave me a nice 7000 visit link. Now that was giving. WHAT A CITIZEN JOURNALIST!
Dan, correct: Ain’t gonna happen.
And, correct again: “Deadman in Jersey”– hey, that would make an excellent screenplay name!
Robin Roberts: good man.
Mr. Webb: although I know you are being compliemntary and I thank you for your intended compliment, see the above directed toward Dan.
I like this thread, I really do.
I haven’t gotten this many compliments since I wore my daughters water bra and lowcut dress to the Wildcatters ball a few years ago.
Dan, Malt liquor? Umm…we really need to refine your drinking habits.
OH MY GOD I SPELLED “FAUX PAS” WRONG! By now it’s probably been cached by those nazis at Google and captured for purputooity.
Freaking internet.
And I was just going to jump on the “asking Jeff to blogroll me” bandwagon. Now I’ve got to start a whole new blog from scratch.
1. Malt liquor is best reserved for exorcisms. Use only to seduce women who are possessed by demons. (Alternatively, you can use Gadarene wine.)
2. What is a water bra? Fill me in.
3. Lemuel Gulliver had a MASTER named “Bates.”
Rae – I’d be dead long before anyone else got here, believe me. ; )
RWS – Actually, I don’t drink alcohol at all. So, my taste in beverage isn’t the issue. You just look so much like a Colt 45 kind of gal, I went with it! :p
Jeff, are you now doing humor through spam check’s cuz my magic word is “coming”??? lol
Dan, sorry, I am more of a Monsanto Chianti Classico (Reserve 1994) or Cakebread Merlot (yes that is a wine, a VERY good wine.)
Gail, a water bra is a bra with a place filled with water (waterproof of course) to make one look much bigger without the surgery…
Dan, you mean you say all the things you say sober??…OMG!
