I have your $2.3K hostage. Here are my demands:

by Bob Sackamento, Tue Jul 15, 2008 at 05:54:23 AM EST

crossposted at daily kos

You will find that my demands are not unreasonable and are consistent with the progressive platform that you have advocated since you entered the political stage.

1.    Pull all troops out of Iraq, Afghanistan, South Korea, Japan and Germany; immediately redeploy them into the Peace Corps
2.    Open all borders
3.    Redistribute wealth in America such that everyone enjoys an equal net worth; include reparations
4.    Commandeer all SUV's and convert them into passenger cars for steam-driven locomotives
5.    Expand the bill of rights to cover all mammals
6.    Elevate Earth Day to National Holiday status with all the associated benefits (e.g. schools and workplaces close); then make it Earth Month
7.    Grant Dennis Kucinich the ceremonial but prestigious title of King of America
8.    Revise the National Anthem to be more inclusive--replace "one nation, under G-d" with "YAAAAAAAARGH!!!" (i.e. a Dean scream)
9.    Legalize it, but don't tax it
10.    Administer the People's Elbow to Joe Lieberman (click for professional demonstration); then promote him to ambassador of Belarus
11.    Remove the smog from the hills of Chester County, PA
12.    Nationalize the cable news networks; keep Olberman on as President of MSNBC, put Rachel Maddow in charge of CNN and give Bill Maher reign over FOXNews
13.    Add the Late Christopher Wallace's (RIP) portrait to Mt. Rushmore
14.    Eliminate all isms and schisms; begin with racism, sexism and homophobia-ism
15.    Pass legislation declaring the Florida Gator the official National Mascot, and send the University of Georgia's mascot, Uga, into exile

Upon meeting these demands, I will release your $2300 (less the several hundred I've already donated) via online* donations in increments of $25 per week until November. Any of the $2300 that remains unpaid in November will be remitted to your second term's reelection campaign at a rate of $25 a week. Any money left over after that will be paid in full to your third term's reelection campaign.

*Release your hostaged money here

Wait, I almost forgot:
16.    You have 30 days to reach an agreement between the Israelis and Palestinians that includes a viable, two-state solution; better yet, a one-state solution that includes a big peace, love and happiness orgy between both parties

Update [2008-7-15 10:12:23 by Bob Sackamento]: Please note: the preceding diary is unadulterated snark.

At this point, given the divisions in the democratic party, I do not believe that any cognizant individual would believe this would be a fun-loving expression that would be shared in wide-circles of the democratic party.

Do you think before you blog? I think so, for to say otherwise would be to denigrate your intelligence. Your behavior is down-right trollish!

Re: Water this Diary!!! (2.00 / 1)

Bob, I stand corrected your diary was not that Offensive--if at all- to Hillary. I believe I meant to send that to someone else's diary. The Rankle's individual could have be a republican posing a disgruntled Hillary supporter, which I most definitely am. Now, there's is nothing you can do about it--but please accept this apology. I dare not read any of your past diaries from fear that my UPRATING YOU this time may be done in regret. So there! You get a recommend and an uprate! I've tried to make this a rarity in the case of me uprating an Obama supporter words--but there's a first time for everything.

**I almost wished you would have responded in a derisive manner, so I wouldn't have do this.**

I can't say that I will not continue to Rankle (no pun intended) other people responses, but I'll admit I acted in haste on this one.

Now, let me find the person who I was targeting from the start!

Thank you; I am flattered (2.00 / 1)

To clarify, the original premise of the Diary was a response to Markos Moulitsas, who is holding his $2300 contribution hostage (which is probably why this diary was much less popular on dailykos). I can assure you this diary has nothing to do with Hillary, whom I currently hold in enormous esteem. If I ever did disparage her in the past (please keep your word and don't check!), it was because I was a knee-jerk, ungrateful prick who, like many of us, was caught up in the heat of the primary battle.

I am okay with most of your demands but :

15.    Pass legislation declaring the Florida Gator the official National Mascot, and send the University of Georgia's mascot, Uga, into exile.

It will be a cold day in July before I stand by and let that happen. That stupid Gator should be exiled along with the bulldog.

I have to admit it... (2.00 / 3)

I moved to the Northeast last year after being a life-long FL resident, and I really miss the SEC--even you two bitter foes. I'm tired of seeing Pennstate everywhere, ACC this, Big Ten that. Booooring! I hate to say it, but when I see a car featuring any other SEC team, I cheer.

Re: I have to admit it... (2.00 / 2)

Yeah, I'm actually more of a Gamecock fan these days, but I grew up pulling for Georgia. I actually grew up about 15 miles from Clemson, so naturally I was surrounded by all that Clemson Tiger mania. I rebelled by rooting for Clemson's adversaries--UGA and USC (not the one in California), although UGA was the bigger rival back then (early 80s) because UGA was actually good and closer geographically.  

Anyway, with respect to football, I too am an SEC guy; but in basketball, I'm still an ACC loyalist (even though the ACC ain't what it used to be).

My daughter is a Gators fan for life, after successfully picking them to win the office NCAA pool at the tender age of 9 months.  Well, I might have helped her with the picks a little bit, but still.  I bought her a little stuffed gator to commemorate the win.

Re: I have your $2.3K hostage. Here are my demands (2.00 / 2)

I have divided loyalties.  While I'm no great fan of the Gator, and would rather see Buzz as the national mascot, any enemy of the University[sic] of Georgia is an ally of mine.

Ironic that I lived in Florida for about ten years, surrounded mostly by Gators fans.

Ironic, also, that I'm living in Knoxville now.  But I don't yet have any Vols merchandise.

And ironic most, that I'm working alongside a Seminole.

Oh what a tangled web we weave, when first we practice college sports...

Excellent (2.00 / 1)

Rec'd.  But if you get Bigge Small on Mt. Rushmore, I want Jam Master Jay there too.  East Coast West Coast and all that.

Absolutely, consider his likeness sculpted (none / 0)

And thank you for not suggesting Tupac (east coast-west coast and all that)!

Re: Excellent (2.00 / 2)

Both Biggie and Jam Master Jay are from Brooklyn, so that doesn't seem to promote geographical diversity very much. The natural west-coast adversary to Biggie is Tupac, so he should probably get the Rushmore nomination, since his and Biggie's death have come to symbolize the rivalry.

On the other hand, maybe Dre or Snoop should be nominated, since they really got the rivalry rolling in "Fuck wit Dre Day," responding to an attack on Compton by Tim Dog.

Okay, in the interest of unity (none / 0)

We will add "Snoop and Tupac on Mt. Rushmore" to our list of demands, and we will also add Jam Master Jay to achieve an East coast/West coast balance.

Strictly speaking, it's $4,600 until the convention, at which point the ceiling is $2,300.
