Doonesbury- Total Wanton Link-Whoring

Doonesbury takes a swipe at bloggers. Now we all know that right-wing bloggers are all-knowing and all-powerful so I'm left to assume that the reasoning behind this taking a swipe at bloggers is clever in design and for the purpose of ....you guessed it....linkage! Assuming that Doonesbury's Garry Trudeau is not a simpleton, that is.

Garry Trudeau is a total wanton link-whore. Yep, you read that right, that's what I said, wanton link-whore. He may be a liberal foo but he's obviously not as stupid as most. I smell Capitalism in its most basic form. Mmmmm.

Ahem. Moving on.

Mr. Trudeau hopes we'll all go and check out the "swipe", link up to him through our "silly little blogs", (between railing about real jobs while nibbling Purina Cat Chow that is) and word of his insult to the entire blogosphere will hopefully spread like wildfire resulting in a link-fest that will be a spectacular sight to behold because he will be getting linked by real bloggers instead of mere drones - the usual suspects who line up, slobbering all over themselves with glee, to link to him routinely.

Perhaps Mr. Trudeau does make some smart moves in the execution of his maniacal scheme of using that which he most fears to elevate his own status but in his insatiable lust for linkage he's made the mistake of overstepping his boundaries and gone too far. Doesn't he know that other liberal weiners like himself are blogging as well?

Then again, maybe he realizes their utter and complete insignificance.

Just for the record most bloggers are not semi-employed but schmoozing and blogging from work. And personally, I've 7 cats. There's not been a spare piece of kitty chow in my home since 1995. Furthermore, I've never purposely eaten kitty chow in my life!
