I have this friend I have made. To not out him and make a spectacle of him in public, let us just say he works for a very big motor sports team, in an area of the motor sports world that is known for a lot of very right-wing, bigoted O'Reilly-quoting boneheads.
In an email to him, today, I self-effacingly outed myself as a Big Ol' Liberal. You know: knows the words to "The Internationale", plots the end of civilization, facist, "we've come for your daughters...that sort of thing.
I had no idea of his political stance, so I was interested in seeing what the response would be. His response was that his daily bookmarks, right at the top, include The Great Orange Satan, Crooks n' Liars, MyDD, The TPM Sites, AmericaBlog, Minnesota Publius(He's from South Great White North) and other hotbeds of liberal, progressive sedition. Sounds like a rock-ribbed DFL'er to me.
Of course, I hipped him to this joint, so if we ever get a new member named "Racing Slick", give him a big howdy. He's one of us and has a heart as big as the state he hails from. He is a man of good works and great compassion. And he loves poodies. I think all liberals must love poodies.
And if you are reading this, you Mac-running smug bastidge, you ain;t got a hair on your ugly ass if you don't grab a mitt and get into this game. If you don't, I will stuff some of my homegrown habaneros down your pants. ;-)
Man, I do love finding me some heretofore unknown ones of us. And he's one of the best bloggers out there. No telling how much he could tear it up if he blogged politics. He's that good.
