So Do You Want a Medal or a Monument?
Posted by Frank J. at 12:35 PM | View blog reactions | Comments (22)

RightWingNews has its annual warblogger awards. I think it can best be summed up by, "Damn you, Scrappleface!"

I got second in humor, tied for fourth for best original content (which is nice), and didn't place anywhere on best blogs. You mean, out of all the bloggers polled, there weren't three who considered me a best blog?! I'll kill everyone! If you here in the news of a serial killer taking out bloggers, that's me!

Anyway, Misha lost his most annoying right-of-center blogger position decisively to Andrew Sullivan (who also placed for most annoying left of center blogger). Andrew Sullivan winning most overrated is ridiculous, though, since he has been bashed so much lately.

Anyway, congrats to sometimes guest blogger Ducky for placing on the best up and coming blogger.

As for Wizbang's 2004 Weblog Awards, I'm in the lead now (good job, crack smokers), but it's by less than a percentage point, so continue to vote each day (you can vote every 24 hours until voting closes Dec. 12th).

My endorsements for other categories are Harvey of Bad Example for Top 100-250 blogs, INDC Journal for Best New Blog, and The Flying Space Monkey for Best of the Top 500 - 1000 Blogs since I was properly bribed. I'll still accept bribes for more endorsements. I guess I'll throw my support for free behind Blackfive who is neck and neck with Citizen Smash for Best Military Blog (they both really deserve it, though).

More humor to come... but only if you vote!

Rating: 2.5/5 (1 vote cast)

Frank, you aren't going to make any sort of a comment on the Winter Blogger Investigation and the evil ballot-box stuffing of Daily Kos?

I figured that was right down your alley being a political humor expert and wit that you are...

#2 - Posted by: Confederate Yankee on December 6, 2004 01:06 PM

i did vote... honestly... and i told a bunch of others to vote.. and some did.. the others called you a right-wing nut... so they voted blame bush... haha after laughing at them.. i got more people to vote..

please.. more funny..

Up by .8%, and pulling away.

#4 - Posted by: McWert Deglieb on December 6, 2004 01:08 PM

I voted for you, Frank.

Want my funny!

Jack.

Jeff G. is pandering much more effectively than you are.

In the words of Janet Jackson:

What have you done for me lately?

#6 - Posted by: El Jefe on December 6, 2004 01:47 PM

I voted yesterday, and for some reason It will not let me vote today.

#7 - Posted by: Stephen on December 6, 2004 02:00 PM

I can't vote! Stupid firewall. I promise I will log on when I get home and vote every day!

#8 - Posted by: Megan on December 6, 2004 02:06 PM

Stephen,
Has it been 24 hours? If it has, they have trouble shooting for that.

#9 - Posted by: Frank J. on December 6, 2004 02:07 PM

Good for Ducky! Speaking of which, he has some great charities listed on his site that are worth checking out for your Christmas giving.

#10 - Posted by: jonag on December 6, 2004 02:14 PM

Frank, I got the goods on you this time, buddy. Since you are supporting INDCJournal over the Barking Moonbat Early Warnign System, I have disclosed the dirty secret about you to the BMEWS. So there!

Well, Frank - I was gonna vote for you, but after smoking all that crack, I might have got confused ....

#12 - Posted by: Carin on December 6, 2004 03:09 PM

i even added a link on my sig on the CU... most of the time i just has a know thy enemy quote.. but this is for a good cause :D

#13 - Posted by: urban on December 6, 2004 03:21 PM

i just have* i gotta proof read better :/

#14 - Posted by: urban on December 6, 2004 03:22 PM

what about the best Mid-East or African Blog? I couldn't find the 'How to Behead the Whiteys [and other ramblings], by Mahmoud'

stupid liberals!

#15 - Posted by: santa on December 6, 2004 03:25 PM

I voted for you, even though I've never commented before and you have no idea who I am.

#16 - Posted by: JWOswald on December 6, 2004 03:43 PM

This ain't your year, Frank. James Taranto over at OpinionJournal just endorsed ScrappleFace.

-DoD

#17 - Posted by: DUCKofDEATH on December 6, 2004 04:28 PM

I just tried to vote and it told me I did already today. I did, but not from my computer. Stupid site has my computer confused with another one. I was giving you two or three votes a day.

#18 - Posted by: karanadon on December 6, 2004 04:58 PM

Scrappleface is funny in an organized, boring way. FrankJ is funny in a stupid, goofy way. FrankJ is very likable and personal, Scrappleface only mocks the news.

#19 - Posted by: Santa on December 6, 2004 05:03 PM

You should change your endorsement from Bad Example to me.

I have a chance of winning. And I'll put Bad Example on my links page and tell everyone to read it.

Why, yes, I'm making campaign promises. But I will KEEP them.

#20 - Posted by: Meryl Yourish on December 6, 2004 05:11 PM

Scrappleface just shot back up to the top again. It's now at 25.8% while IMAO is at 22.1%.

#21 - Posted by: Justin C. on December 6, 2004 05:24 PM

The battle between IMAO and Scrappleface is like King Kong vs. Godzilla: each is so great, you almost don't care who wins so long as Tokyo gets destroyed. In the end, I compromised by buying Scott's book, but voting for you.

Oh--is this subtle enough?--my No Oil for Pacifists blog is a nominee in the Best of the Top 5000 - 6750 Blogs category. I sure would appreciate your readership, your vote--and your endorsement.
