Morning Awesome

You know, she doesn’t even have to SAY anything. Mikah’s sourfaced-crazy-eyes and tense posture and “Yeah, me too!” head nods make it evident that she’s even dumber than Scarborough.Hey; I had an idea. Remember how, as an act of creative activism and kind of guerrilla-political-theater, bloggers organized a mailing of rubber stamps to congress, during the bad Bush times, and it actually worked to both frame the argument and give the Dems a spine (and a through-line) to stand up?I was thinking, your line about ” make them strap on the diapers and read the phonebook” for the filibuster threats is far too good to exist in print only.If a consortium of bloggers, Huffington-post and otherwise, got behind the idea of encouraging their readers to send their democratic representatives packages containing Depends and old phonebooks, with letters to the effect of “call their bluff and MAKE them actually filibuster. Here is a kit for you to hand them, if they want to try to stop the progress and change we voted for. Tell them if they want to threaten filibusters, they better be prepared to strap on the diapers and break out the phonebooks.”It could a)get media play and shape the narrative and b)put the idea into the news-cycle and the general “conventional wisdom” that Democrats had better stand strong.

New condensed version. Mika Oh-shit look at 1:00-ish.

The only thing Zbig didn’t drop was “how’s your intern, Joe?”Why the hell wasn’t this guy made SoS?

Josh,I love your idea… but maybe we can include some of those really big adult bibs as well as we watch them drool all over themselves.Travis,Why in the hell wasn’t he… or better.. will anyone actually listen to what he had to say.
