If you know me, you know that I like to joke around a lot but this diary is no joke
See there's this guy named Newton....
not this one...
nope not her...
i know i have his picture in here somewhere...nope not this Newton...
ahhhh here it is...his name isn't Newton it's Newt
anyway... a few weeks ago Newt Gingrich's campaign put out a press release so incredibly insane...even Colbert had to have someone else read it (I suspect because he couldn't keep a straight face as he read it)- here take a look at how John Lithgow interpreted it...
And that inspired my new boss at
ProgressiveCongress.org, the incomparable
contest website, grab a video camera and make a video of you or someone you know performing this press release. When you're done, upload it to YouTube, tag it "bignewton" so we can find it then go
back to the Darcy Burner, Will Urquhart, and of course Facebook page and vote on which one is your favorite...the winner will get an apple
oops wrong pic again.... how about this...
an Apple ipad2!
And, if the winner is attending Netroots Nation, they will get to spend sometime with Rep. Raul Grijalva- co chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus! (If they aren't going to NN, then the highest placing finisher who IS going will get that luxury!)
Oh and don't bother using pooties...I already did that
