Wonkette
It’s that time of year again, with the clicking, and then more of the clicking! The nomination period for this year’s Weblog Awards ends this Friday, and maybe if… you know… [looks down, kicks dirt]… you want to nominate us for something? You could do that? KISSES.
Our preference would be to battle the PUMAs again in the Best Liberal Blog category. But other categories would be fun, too!
And please support (click the green “+” sign) our warrior colleagues at Rumproast in Best Very Large Blog (or whatever else they want).
Another “good blawg” would be psychotic Wonkette commenter Shortsshortsshorts’ ShortsandPants blog in the Best New Political Blog category. It’s WACKY.
And then there are other categories where you can do whatever. Nominate BlueGal for something; she’s a peach.
Best Truck Nutz Blog, hands down.
Hey, keep these Sunday posts coming, and you’ll have my vote for life.
I’m still kind of disoriented because you took away the raw meat we were having so much fun eating. Awards?
How about ‘best religious blog’?
I don’t understand one syllable of the instructions, fuck it.
Death to whom?
naveed: Death to THE LIVING!
The Mudflats is a great blog who has done a good job of shining light on Palin’s shenanigans long before it was cool to do so. They deserve a nomination too
Jim, I hope you get the award this year so you can put it next to the baseball “everyone is a winner” award you got when you were 10.
Cool I’ll put a link on my website.
Someone went there in 2007 while searching for septic-tank treatments and/or de-lousing, so it should help.
I already put ShortsandPants down as ‘Best Time-Waster’.
Shorts ought to put “psychotic Wonkette commenter” on his resume.
Heym Wonkette! Thanks for recommending the FINEST BLOG EVER AND ALSO.
BUT PEOPLE PLEASE HELP OR THE PUMAS WILL WIN.
How’s about Wonkette for “best tea bagging?” Please note that I left out the word “blog” as that has nothing to do with my nomination, whatsoever.
shortsshortsshorts: You made yourself a blog thing and I wasn’t informed? Thanks a lot. I will never vote for you ever again and I will send all the pumas to you forever and ever!
Nigerian Business Executive: He used to whore his site here but that’s against Ken’s rules. BTW, has anyone SEEN Ken? Will he be forced to eat Thanksgiving dinner in a Salvation Army along the coast? Or has he already gone feral and is already wrestling with raccoons over dumpster scraps?
Another “good blawg” would be psychotic Wonkette commenter Shortsshortsshorts’….
Psycho blogger, quest-ce que c’est. Sh-Short-Sh-Short-Shorts Pants Pants Pants Pants.
chascates: I wonder how I missed that. It must have been when I was trying to finish up my dissertation and only had time to scan Wonkette headlines and chuckle nostalgically. Or maybe I just skipped over the whoring because I, like Ken, have no respect for blog whores. You hear that, shorts? No respect.
Thank you ma hunnies! Like you, I have my target picked out, and hope to have the help of Wonkette readers to crush Pammy Atlas’s blog like a bug in the Best Individual Blogger category. There are very few of us lone wolves left. Driftglass won last year; and defeating Pammy is more important than a win for me, but I do so appreciate your sweet mention. xoxo
Should Jim Newell and I ever sit down over a cup of coffee, I know that we will fundamentally disagree about the PUMAs, who were RIGHT ABOUT *EVERYTHING*, including the now inevitable Clinton/Palin 2012 ticket. But my hat is off to his hard work during the 2008 Weblog Awards wars. A lot of his supporters think he proved what Don Van Vliet proclaimed, “There are only forty people in the world and five of them are hamburgers.”
Jim Newell is not a hamburger. Thanks, Jim.
Does anybody know if some blog(s) told the HC lawyers to go fuck themselves and kept up the pages from Palin’s book? Because those blogs should get nominated just for that.
Shouldn’t we set our sights a little higher this year and maybe take on the crowd in “Best Conservative Blog”? After all this is a war blog right? Inexplicably “What Up/Change the Game/Steele Blog” is not yet nominated in the category, although I’m sure that will change. Why is there a “Best Online Community” category but not a “Biggest Collection of Drunk Whiny Bitches” category? We would be competitive in only one of them I think.
Nigerian Business Executive:
It’s a veritable carnival ride through the mind of ShortsShortsShorts….
So you know it’s always lucid and reasonable.
shadowMark: You are not very understanding.
I promise to nominate Wonket if you promise to facilitate the immediate mistrial and release of KSM.
Jim Newell: I’m sorry. I’m an idiot. I’ll shut up and give myself a time out.
Do PUMAs still exist?
I LOVE YOU, WONKETTE!
Just showing my support.
I voted. Where’s my sticker.
OK, done.
But I feel so cheap… and tawdry. Leave a couple bucks on the bureau, though, and it’ll go away.
Can’t we just clap harder?
Or even if you don’t win, tell everyone you did. And anyway, the other guys cheated. Have you learned NOTHING from all the righwing crap you shovel through every day?
Ok, http://www.gop.com nominated for Best Humor Blog. Let’s see them deny that!
trondant: While Michael S. still hasn’t purchased http://www.partyofthestreets.com/, the GOP.com site will remain viable for a Weblog award thingie.
shortsshortsshorts: Has urbansuburbanhiphopgop.com been registered yet? If not, somebody needs to get to it. Also, I’m nominating you for best vegan blog.
I don’t know…Wonkett is going to have some pretty stiff competition from Little Green Footballs this year, if the nominations comments I read are correct…
Do your best!
hoosiermama: Little Green Footballs voted for Reagan, and he killed Jesus.
trondant: Also, I’m nominating you for best vegan blog.
I don’t know about that. I have it on good authority that Shorts feasts on the marrow of little children, using one of those scooper spoons otherwise useful for eating watermelon. Mmm…
shortsshortsshorts: You have many votes for the best new political blog and the others mentioned don’t share your panache & wit!
Also i want you to nominate for something…….http://bit.ly/3Wdgbu
And in the spirit of things I nominated Orly Taitz Esquire for Best Humor Blog.
I haven’t checked on the Pumas for a few days, but the last time I did, their heads were exploding over the Stupak Amendment. Hopefully that’s enough inspiration for Daragh and her minions to challenge the mighty Wonketteers in a rematch. Then again, Sarah’s book does come out this week, so they’ll probably be busy.
shortsshortsshorts: Every time LGF gets a nomination Baby Jesus cries. And I nominated you, also.
If you guys want to waste even more time on stupid shit, you should go vote in this Pelosi-hatin’, Palin-lovin’ PUMA poll! It is much fun! Honk honk! Excellent! Yes!

I think we should do our best to keep Watt’s Up from beating Pharyngula in the Best Science Blog category.
PsycGirl: Seconded. I also think we should try to get an atheism blog (I see someone’s nominated Friendly Atheist) to win Best Religious Blog.
i’ll nominate you for something if you nominate me for something. (and it has to be something nice!)
deal?
JMP: YES
Huh, some of those guys are really pissed about the mere mention of LGF. I just can’t get too upset by a conservative blog author who realizes he doesn’t have to be an complete asshole. STILL, THAT FUCKER IS GOING DOWN IN THE SEMIS, ME AN’ LIAM, WE’RE GONNA FUCK HIM UP.
I don’t think LGF is going to be a finalist for Best Liberal Blog because the guy who runs the awards realizes that most of the votes are coming from ex-LGF readers who are mad at Charles Johnson because he makes fun of silly person Glenn Beck and doesn’t want to curb stomp every Muslim in the world anymore:

Kudos to whoever left this comment about the Confluence nomination:
wrong category clown,
let’s see,
1. you hate obama
2. you are against the health care plan
3. you are birthers
4. you advocated for McCain/Palin
5. you are puma
yep, wrong category.
Weblogs need awards like a fish needs a bicycle rammed up its ass.
Maybe if I see some damn good forelock-tugging, I’ll think about it. Doff your cap, too.
The neocons are astro-tufing:
