Yes, it’s time once more to exercise your franchise. And since we’re no longer permitted to vote for President of the United States — or at least, we’re politely rescued from such impudent acts of lese-majeste by having our ballots spirited away from polling stations and respectfully interred in a composting toilet in the basement of a condemned ice house owned by the Republican National Committee – your franchise needs all the exercise it can get, if it’s not going to develop a pair of Hugh Hewittian man tits.
And after all, there are still some areas of urgent public policy in which our voices can and must be heard! To wit: we can stand up and be counted in the do-or-die race to select Jonah Goldberg’s ghost writer. So please review the entries submitted in this thread and vote here for your favorite Fake Page From Jonah’s Imaginery Book. And remember, Jonah’s reputation as a groundbreaking political thinker and exhaustive researcher are at stake, so think about it for a couple of seconds before you cast your ballot.
We had some wonderfully funny (and eerily prescient) entries, and they deserve to be recognized, if only because the people who posted them spent far more time and effort on Jonah’s book than he has. As previously threatened announced, the winner will receive their choice of either Better Living Through Bad Movies, or a World O’ Crap mug. (Initially, because some of our contestants are in early middle age, I had planned to award either a copy of Liberal Fascism, or a coupon good for 10% off the Early Bird Special at Denny’s, but unfortunately, the odds of their surviving until the actual publication date seem a bit grim.)
I’m voting against my own interest here, but I cast my ballot with ortho_bob. If only because I want him to come up with page 38…
