John McCain’s Lexington Project will address the rising costs of energy that are hurting small businesses.!1!1111!!1!!
You see, I was just reading the Washington Post:
Spread John McCain’s official talking points around the Web — and you could win valuable prizes!
That, in essence, is the McCain campaign’s pitch to supporters to join its new online effort, one that combines the features of “AstroTurf” campaigning with the sort of customer-loyalty programs offered by airlines, hotel chains, restaurants and the occasional daily newspaper.
On McCain’s Web site, visitors are invited to “Spread the Word” about the presumptive Republican nominee by sending campaign-supplied comments to blogs and Web sites under the visitor’s screen name. The site offers sample comments (“John McCain has a comprehensive economic plan . . .”) and a list of dozens of suggested destinations, conveniently broken down into “conservative,” “liberal,” “moderate” and “other” categories. Just cut and paste.
I went to the site (and I will now bathe in turpentine and kerosene!), and the current featured blogs to spam are Red State, Jeff Emanuel, and Daily Kos. It’s been a while since I’ve posted at Daily Kos, but this might be the motivation I need!
People who sign up for McCain’s program receive reward points each time they place a favorable comment on one of the listed Web sites (subject to verification by McCain’s webmasters). The points can be traded for prizes, such as books autographed by McCain, preferred seating at campaign events, even a ride with the candidate on his bus, known as the Straight Talk Express, according to campaign spokesman Brian Rogers.
A ride on the bus! What could be cooler than that? As my eighteen-month old son might sing:
The wheels on the bus go round and round
Round and round
Round and round
The wheels on the bus go round and round
All through the town!
Woo hoo!!!1!11!1!

‘Comprehensive economic plan’ and McCain stick out like a sore thumb and the right wing idiots at even dkos stand out in stark relief as plants. They should hire some professionals. However Obama isn’t really coming out with any meaningful solutions either unless you consider pumping up your tires and off shore drilling good energy policy. Sorry to be so bitter bad days in the politics for me.
John McCain has a comprehensive economic plan that will create millions of good American jobs, ensure our nation’s energy security, get the government’s budget and spending practices in order, and bring relief to American consumers.
Where my mfing prize?
You actually went to the site? Is your computer still working alright? Are you contagious?? 😉
… is the utter cynicism of McCain’s campaign. He is clearly counting on the Republican political machine to gain him the Presidency.
Other than eternal war and love of power, I don’t see any real plan to govern — it’s as though the face of the Repub party is stripped of all masks, all semblance of any desire to govern — it’s all about the power now and nothing else.
Good to see you, Turk … welcome back. I’ve missed you.
My plan is Paris Hilton’s. As she points out, she is concededly hotter and speaks the local patois better. McSame has never had a sex film released on the Intertubes, has he?
McCain is an idiot. Who does he think he is, “Spam King McCain” – the Edward Davidson of politics? This stunt could get him featured on Fox News.
I want to get off!
howdy Turkana! good to see you!
from what i’ve seen, dk is awaiting the bus seekers!
for very long, and went to check out dKos.
This made me chuckle

for two reasons: because it’s dumb snark but (I think) very funny; and because a bunch of Kossacks couldn’t seem to figure out that it was snark until somebody added the tags “snark” and “humor.” Check it out.
