Between planning nuclear wars, burning embassies, plain old blaspheming, and accusing each other of being stupid, dishonest, or deranged, the quality of discourse has been strained somewhat.<\/p>\n

I’d rather we laughed at ourselves and each other – it’s a good way to get over ourselves. Frequent commenter Daniel Markham is doing something about it.<\/p>\n

\nTired of having the same old argument every day with your left\/right war\/antiwar conservative\/liberal friends? Able to make a joke? How about writing some political humor?<\/p>\n

\nI’ve started a new blog www.news2lose.com<\/a> which is going to be political satire. I don’t care what side of the political fence you are on, if you are able to laugh at yourself and others we’d like to hear it! A spirit of self-deprecation is required — if you want to bash Michael Moore or Dick Cheney have fun with it, but have some class too.<\/p>\n

\nEmail me at DanielBMarkham AT hotmail.com for a tryout. If you can write some funny stuff, or at least something different, maybe folks will like hearing about it. This is NOT a commercial venture, just a place to play and have fun. If we can write a few stories a week that make fun of the political climate we are in, maybe we all can loosen up a bit.<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
