Are You Sexy Enough For Marc Ambinder’s Obama Club?

We are sitting on our hands, in a cold sweat, staring at the floor, WAITING for Marc Ambinder to decide on our request to join the sexiest fanciest Facebook club ever that we found today. Must be worthy… must be worthy. You can try and join too! Are you “working on” the presidential transition? HONOR CODE, PEOPLE. Ambinder will sniff you out if you’re lying! Apparently the Ambinder Transition Sex Club is also looking for a social chair. We nominate Intern Juli. IF WE EVEN GET IN! [Facebook]

    Did you remember to tell him we’re being cataloged in the Library of Congress? That should win us some sexy points.

  2. I second that nomination!

  3. It’s fun to f*ck with Marc Ambinder by sending him emails that pretend to be from an “insider” who knows what “people” in “certain circles” are “mentioning”. My personal project is to convince that John McCain will be our next Secretary of State.

  4. It is not fair your intertube traditions discriminate against the more experienced and therefore better senior members of our society who aren’t even sure how to surf their way to an email. If you had only voted for Walnuts, these socialist e-meeting grounds would be banished and replaced by punch card thingies and the infinate brilliance of hanging chads.

    A thousand whore diamonds to the reader who creates ‘Uncovering the 44 Transition’ — A Facebook for losers who want to see Thunder and Lightning porn. We’ll use this space to exchange drawings and stories, and organize naked events with members of the transition team.

    The Atlantic Monthly, gonzo journalism.

    Last months issue had more lists of crap than Esquire.

    44,000 POINTS OF LIGHT

    NICE TRANSITION THEME!

  8. CivicHoliday: Yes, the Library of Congress demands only the upmost respect and therefore should equate to automatic admission for all Wonkette editors and interns.

    So was was Larry Craig involved in the Library of Congress. I heard he was very successful in heading up the male congress department. Or was that some other Republican?

    I hope I hope I hope your sole purpose in posting this information is so that Marc Ambinder has to go through and look at each and every one of our ugly faces when we, of course, try to get in.

    I have none of the sexie. Mambinder the Awesome thinks I’m fat. Sigh.

    PS. “the news nets”?? WTF are news nets? Are they things with spikes that are flung from horseback to capture bloodied and fleeing news stories as they scuttle for the underbrush? How old IS this dude?

    CivicHoliday: “… cataloged in the Library of Congress” oh cripes. they are. i forgot. can they track me down?

  12. InKnockYouUs says at 8:44 pm, November 10th, 2008

    Marc Ambinder is a friend of someone I am friends with. And I am a big nobody. Must be the 6 degrees of separation thing. Anyway, I can contact my friend if it would help.

  13. OffTheRecord says at 8:49 pm, November 10th, 2008

    Most important thing I learned from this: Chuck Todd has Facebook! I must make Chuck Todd be my Facebook boyfriend. New life goal.

    ** we need to recruit members
    ** we need to exchange stories
    ** we need to appoint a social chair to schedule events
    ** we’ll build a resource database consisting of press credential applications…what’s needed, etc… and can even share friendly gossip

    I wanna be social chair!!! and share gossip….fuck “friendly”

  15. Who needs Marc Ambinder? Doesn’t those silly journalists know the lyrics to “Chocolate City” - you don’t need to pullit when you got the ballot ….. “And when they come to march on you, tell em to make sure they got their James Brown pass …. Reverend Ike secretary of the treasury / Richard Prior, minister of education / Stevie Wonder, secretary of fine arts / and Ms. Aretha Franklin, the First Lady / Are ya out there CC!?”

  16. OffTheRecord: More importantly, does Nate Silver have Facebook? And how many simultaneous sex relationships is he in, right now?

  17. tunamelt says at 8:59 pm, November 10th, 2008

    jagorev: Back off the Silver, ladies. Back. Off.

  18. travellabyrinth says at 9:00 pm, November 10th, 2008

    Also he calls his facebook group “a Facebook”. How many Facebooks are there in a typical internet?

  19. Viva la Cynthia says at 9:00 pm, November 10th, 2008

    CivicHoliday: This is the best argument for smaller government I have ever seen.

  20. InKnockYouUs says at 9:02 pm, November 10th, 2008

    That was a joke, by the way.

  21. rocktonsammy says at 9:28 pm, November 10th, 2008

    Whats Facebook?

    Some kind of facebook?

  22. shortsshortsshorts says at 9:28 pm, November 10th, 2008

    Hahahaha Jim is still on Facebook. I AM CHECKING YOUR STATUS AS WE SPEAK.

  23. gorteknthemicrochips says at 9:28 pm, November 10th, 2008

    JIM NEWELL’S constant CAPITALIZATION FOR HUMOROUS EMPHASIS is WEARING THIN as he POSTS ARTICLE AFTER ARTICLE using the SAME GIMMICK. I wonder if he might TONE IT DOWN a TAD BIT!

  24. StrangelyBrown says at 9:28 pm, November 10th, 2008

    Is this that “tank” I keep hearing about?

  25. DustBowlBlues says at 9:31 pm, November 10th, 2008

    qwerty42: You’re kidding. This crap is in the Library of Congress? Surely you jest. If that’s the case, I have to quit using fuck and shit, etc.

    Where else can I use my profane language, if not here? At Methodist Bible Study? They would fucking faint, their faces drowned in plates of gelatin salad which, here in real America, is still consumed in copious amounts.

  26. Vartan84 says at 9:39 pm, November 10th, 2008

    I have no idea who Marc Ambinder (Harvard) is but we have FOUR FACEBOOK FRIENDS IN COMMON, FOUR! That makes us like practically married in the world of social networking! This means he’ll have to accept me, right? Stay tuned..

  27. CivicHoliday says at 9:43 pm, November 10th, 2008

    Viva la Cynthia: not sure I follow…

  28. So where’s this Nate Silver Facebook stalker’s club I’ve heard about?

  29. tinybubbles says at 10:13 pm, November 10th, 2008

    DustBowlBlues: I love that gelatin salad! With marshmallows?

  30. jagorev: I love it. I’ll back you up some how. I can find some fake letter heads or a pictures of dead strippers. I got a ton of those.

  31. Lascauxcaveman says at 1:31 am, November 11th, 2008

    gorteknthemicrochips: Hey, Sara does the all caps thingees too. (Of course, she can get away with it, cuase she’s hawt.)

  32. Oh, sure, use sweet, innocent Juli as the front to your EBIL MACHINATIONS! Go on. I dare ya.

    Besides, Armbinder prolly reads Wonkette or has an intern do it for him. :p

  33. Dawn Keipuntsh says at 8:28 am, November 11th, 2008

    With an e-mail like “Mambinder”, I thought I might add the fact that I have ropes, duct tape, clamps and other “binding” materials that might help the group out. Couldn’t hurt.
