Ladies and Gentlemen, we are here because of the American Dream. Barack Obama, that is--isn't he dreamy, folks? And he cares about hardworking American families, because that's the kind of guy he is: a hardworking American. With a family. An American family. That's why he's going to make all of your dreams come true. Vote for Barack Obama and you'll be taller, smarter, and possessed of a fuller, more luxuriant head of hair. That's right, your whites will be whiter and your brings brighter if you'll just pull the lever for Obama/Biden. Also, every one of you will get a free trip to Disneyland!
The suspense is killing me.
Snide and unworthy of you. Cheap snark is the Ana Marie Cox beat.
I'm going to live blog Megan's live blogging.
But first, a few predictions: 1) Megan makes fun of some "moronic" cable TV anchor because he said something "stupid." 2) Megan makes fun of how "stupid" the conventiongoers look and how "silly" their enthusiasm is for heir candidate. 3) Barack Obama says something "truly, truly stupid," e.g., that the free market sometimes doesn't work very well. 4) Michelle Obama's clothes don't fit. 5) Everyone at my blogging bar loves me. 6) Even though I don't agree with any of Obama's policy proposals, I'm going to vote for him anyway. Why? Because I'm a contrarian.
What Megan will not talk about. 1) Anything to do with substantive policy issues that Obama brings up (except anti-free market issues).
I don't know if Megan has anyone that actually cares for her - it's not apparent from her posts. But it seems like the drinking has gotten to the point where an intervention might be called for.
Megan's blog is a monumental waste of bandwidth. Her level of narcissism is beyond unbearable. She should do the blogosphere a huge favor and retire her tedious, content-free blog ASAP.
The comments above certainly exemplify the dehumanizing qualities of discourse on the internet.
It certainly inclines one to think that Andrew Sullivan has had the right idea all along by having no comments.
