The check's in the mail.

Ace,

Since John Kerry will be lowering my taxes next year, I pledge 22 million!

Ace,

Funny, this.

I too, saw the plea for more money, set next to his slow and reluctant essay as to what John Forbes Kerry needs to say to win over the undecided (conservative) voters.

No thanks, I think I'll pass on this pledge drive.

Better yet, I will hit the PayPal button for Ace.

(NB: I am strangely uncomfortable that when it is all said and done, Ace may have been correct about the "shill" thing. Damn you, Ace!)

Maybe it's for his headband-width? Because that item definitely needs more room for Sully's inflated sense of himself.

Why shouldn't Sullivan (and Ace, for that matter) make money off of his blog? He should stop pretending he needs money for expenses and inform people to pony up during pledge week.

Cal,

Of course. It's not the request for donations I object to. Since I'm sitting here begging for cash myself, I obviously forgive that.

For a long, long time -- since the beginning -- Sullivan has been claiming that the donations go into "redesigning his site" or "paying for bandwidth" or the like.

Look, the money is going into his pocket. That's not such a terrible thing, since he is providing some sort of service. And of course it's voluntary. The money is going to pay his rent, or into his bank account, or for trips to P-town, or whatever.

I don't see the need to lie about this.

By the way, I really am going to kil Johnny Coldcuts unless someone buys me a fuckin' motorcycle.

Dammit, Ace, I was pissin' and moanin' about this "gimme money" shit last week and I'm STILL waiting for someone to cough up a new string bass for yours truly. If someone actually PayPals your account to keep you from chowin' down on fucking foul-mouthed Johnny Coldcuts I'm gonna be ROYALLY pissed.

And then I'll ask for the contributor's name so I can get a slice of the pie. We're all family, right?

Remember... give your money to Anyone But Sullivan.

Or to quote the Kos... "Screw 'Em"

CCWBass, I keep telling Ace to go into affiliate marketing. You should do the same. It's so much more....Republican than pledge drives.

Marketing, eh?

Hmmmmmm.

I've got it! I'll go into the black market t-shirt biz! I can do a "rasta" Johnny Coldcuts ("Me got a natty dread, asshole!", an Allah t-shirt rip-off (Hey, Comrade! Fuck you, motherfucker!), and, for the Fark.com crowd, something disgusting involving Johnny Coldcuts and a nekkid lady.

Even after I give Ace his skim off the top, I'll still make . . . uh . . . a particular sum of money!

I'm on it!

Next he's going to say that God os going to take his life if he doesn't raise enough money. To quote the ketchup lady, "He can just Stuff It."

Just marry a ketchup heiress.
