I'm wondering how many bigwigs - elected officials/candidates/media members/etc. read blogs. If you're one, feel free to take the poll, and, even better, let us know who you are.

I was checking out the Weekly Standard's letters to the edtior, and I found an interesting one from one Carol Cox, of BlondFromBirth.org She was writing to object to Paris Hilton being called a blonde, as she apparentally dyes her hair.

A blonde myself, I was curious to see what this site says:

The purpose of Blond From Birth is to spread awareness of blond haired people and increase their rights in todays society. We have goals of promoting awareness and of ending the racist stereotypes of blondes that the Media propagates with the assistance of hair dye companies.
Up to now the fakes get the press while we are muted. The Dye-jobs worked in packs while we were isolated. BFB is here to change that. Right now, fat people and sex freaks have more civil rights than blonds. BFB and all blond people must fight that...Yet we Blonds are supposed to accept the dye-jobs because we are both 'white'. There is no such thing as a 'white race'. History shows Europeans have always hated each other and fought each other. They never held hands and sang songs of their white family.

Just...wow. Rather than posting letters from GLADD or the NAACP, we get blonde rights. I, for one, am glad to see that the Standard has is focusing on the real problems of discrimination in this country. Take the Poll.

Conservatives are trying to googlebomb the phrase "John Kerry's principled positions" to a "French Military Victories"-esque page, seen here.

Here's the new site:

We also have a copy of an op ed in the Cleveland Plain Dealer, by Dean, explaining the new org:

My run for the White House ended last month. But for me, and for my supporters around the country, our work to take this country back has just begun.

In part inspired by the recent Obama Diary, I'm curious what issue(s) Kossites think are grounds to withold funds/time/votes for a candidate who is generally in line with your beliefs. In other words, how pure does (s)he have to be?

This Thursday, our beloved President is coming to my to hometown to dedicate a 9/11 memorial. Although college prevents me from being there, my friends back home are trying to come up with good slogans for protest sings. Anybody got ideas?
