You know what? Tips are over rated. They are over-rated because if you have any sense, you are gonna use it to buy beer anyway. Let me cut out the middle man and give a beer to some fine kossacks. Maybe you made the Rec List or maybe you didn't. Maybe your diary caused a flurry of comments or maybe it got overlooked. But in my eyes, you are totally worth a pitcher and I'll even pay for it.
- Here is beer for every poster who wrote of illegal torture and the FISA vote. Too bad that we chose candidate fevor over this problem that affects us all no matter who we support.
- Here is a beer for every Kossack who rose above partisanship and defended the candidate they didn't support if it crossed the boundaries of fair play. An extra beer if you are the sort who has never displayed bad will, or shown the tendency to demonize another candidate because it was not your own.
- Here is a beer for every Kossack who congratulated a candidate on their wins even if they were not their own candidates. Extra beer if you congratulated another candidate's supporters on their fundraising efforts as well.
- Here is a beer for each candidate that won a primary- be it a caucus, be it a primary, whether it had a majority of black voters, latino voters, female voters, male voters, straight voters, gay voters, asian voters, independent voters, democrat voters, working class voters or affluent voters, high school voters or college educated voters; and whether they won in the north, south, east, west, or in the middle, and whether they won delegate rich states or small states.
- Here is a beer for every Kossack that put their money, time and votes where their mouths are. If you campaigned, canvassed, phone banked, donated, voted, or are going to vote- no matter who that candidate is good for you.
- A big pitcher for all Gravel supporters. For no reason except that your posts are always the funniest.
- A big beer for all those who posted easy objective guides for understanding these primary processes- projections, analysis, polls and objective views of the different ways this race could go- enjoy an iced, cold brew from a foreigner and stranger to such workings.
- A beer to Kos of course for allowing this to happen in one place.
- A beer to anyone who retained their sense of humor and posted a funny blog to help us keep our cool and laughter in such heated times. Double beers if it featured Pooties or Wozzles.
- A beer for me. Because after spending all this money on beers, I am going to need one to recover from that blow to my pocketbook.
