Hello, I’m Priscilla Spencer. Recently, I’ve been troubled to hear comments by presumptive Republican presidential nominee John McCain, who said, “Now we’ve got the cables. We’ve got talk radio. We’ve got the bloggers. I hate the bloggers. We’ve got all kinds of sources of information.”

As a blogger and a human being, I was shocked and saddened. But I want you to know, John, on behalf of bloggers everywhere, that despite your ugly words, we don’t hate you. As a matter of fact, we like you.

We like you very much.

We particularly like your feckless tax plan, which promises four more years of Bush economic policy, and your repeated admissions that you don’t know much about economics, not to mention how you can’t even pay people to manage your own taxes properly.

Your well-documented anger issues and creepy superstitions.

The fact you’re breaking campaign finance laws you yourself wrote.

Your foreign policy incompetence, which includes the lack of awareness of the differences between Sunnis and Shi’ites and the humorous flub that Vladmir Putin is the President of Germany, glazed in man-sweat.

I’ll keep my eyes on you. And let it be known, one day, when you least expect it, your policies will help elect Barack Obama. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

I love sweaty basketball players!

  • 11:28 Mmm, Monday. It’s nice to have weekends again. It’s nice to have the days of the week actually *mean* something. #
  • 16:02 @hodgman It’s the harsh, Anglo-Saxon, trochaic foot that makes the latter so appealing. Spondee is for lamers. #
  • 21:06 ACTUAL LINE from a TV ad that just aired: "ABC Family salutes America with Harry Potter Weekend!" Um. #

Got to have dinner with Raoul and a bunch of the Vampire Cowboys (Robert, Paco, Qui, Theresa, and Abby) after the show. They’re such a great crowd!
