FMJRA Thursday, the Delusions of Grandeur Edition

The instructions said, "You can nominate yourself, don't be shy." So, I did. I threw my hat into the ring for the 2009 Weblog Awards - Best Conservative Blog. Hey, if all those other guys drop out, I've got a chance! I sorta wish they had a category for "Best blogger you've never heard of" 'cause I'd fit right in for sure.

But if an unknown, untested and unworthy neophyte can fool a majority of the public into thinking he's fit to be president maybe the Weblog Awards guys can be hoodwinked too. Then again, blog readers are generally a lot smarter than Democrats so who am I kidding, right?

On to the links!

Pat in Shreveport didn't have to nominate herself, she's got friends for that! She's also reading Harry Reid's Opus and mocking the estimably mockable Andrew Sullivan. Not bad for a day's work.

Fishersville Mike did nominate himself making moi just a tad less pathetic-looking. Thanks dude!

Bob Belvedere laments the useful idiots at Columbia who'll give a stage to Mahmoud Ahmadinejad but disinvite Nonie Darwish at the last minute because adherents of The Religion of Peace^™ threatened to once again prove the falacy of that moniker.

TrogloPundit wonders why he wasn't picked as the sexiest man of the year. Monique Stuart sets him straight.

Far and away the Best Christmas Decoration of the Century comes to us via Grandpa John. I am so stealing that idea for my house!

Appropos my delusions of Congressional grandeur, Pundette notes a great quote from the guy behind Recovery.gov — "'We're not certifying the accuracy of the information,' said Pound. ... Asked why recipients would pluck random numbers - 26, 45, 14 - to fill in for their congressional district, Pound replied, 'who knows, man, who really knows. There are 130,000 reports out there.'" Dude, where's my transparency?

Ah, whaddaya want for $18 million bucks?

Carolyn Tacket to Eric Holder — "don't piss down my back and tell me it's raining." Carol for Senate!

Meanwhile, Seane-Anna channels Bud Adams for the Attorney General's benefit.

Would you believe that Barack Obama has a direct link to the Taliban courtesy of Code Pink and Hanoi Jane Fonda? Donald Douglas has the sickening story. No wonder Barry hasn't produced an Afghanistan strategy yet; he's gotta run it past the Taliban first!

Audit the Federal Reserve. Yes folks, sometimes Ron Paul has good ideas.

Edisto Joe provides us with a useful comparison between the House and Senate versions of ObamaCare.

There are numerous new taxes in both bills, but none so silly as the Senate plan to tax breast implants. Fake boobs are de rigeur in Nevada, what was Harry Reid thinking, that the ladies who procure them don't vote?

How many bureaucrats does it take to change a lightbulb?

The most dangerous place in the world used to be between Chuck Schumer and a live microphone. Now it's apparently anywhere near a Joe Biden motorcade.

The Daley Gator welcomes us to post-racial America: "You can't vote against healthcare and call yourself a black man."

On the jobs front, Barbara Espinosa says, "a little less conversation, a little more action." Please.

Life is Good. Well, sure, if you've already gotten a million hits on your blog!
