Really? I had no idea that the FOI goes back that far. See to me that is what you call a veteran.

CP, helping me waste time at work for more than 10 years.

Just trying to help. If you're going to run a successful campaign I thought it would make perfect sense to be associated with a winning product whilst showing a sense of unity.

Anyone have photoshop on hand right now?

Nay, yee of little faith. As per the first link:

Recently there has been some debate as to who the President of the Internet is and how they came to power. The concerned parties mutually agreed that because Google is unbiased and somewhat democratic it would be used to determine the current President of the Internet. Whoever holds the top search result for “President of the Internet” will in fact be the President of the Internet. This is an ongoing election. It can, and will change from day to day.

Therefore, all we have to do to get Locke elected President is get his name to come up as the top hit for a google search on "President of the Internet". Not only are we not too late, our path to validation is even spelled out for us. Now, who is really good at manipulating search engine results?

Edit: Locke ... clearly a Minister of Search Engines is the key to your glorious success. Get your name on top of a google search and you're gold. Official even.

Alright, I'll see what I can do.

Thats a given. An absolute certainty. I am unquestionably anti-Oiler, I will go all McCarthyism on even the slightest of Oiler-favourable leanings!

I'm tell him what position to play in softball and made up a nickname, so I feel I can bitch slap as well

Once you pick one, the first person to post with it in their sig gets it. There can be no repeats, unless otherwise stated by Mr. President!!!!

Shall we take this as your official application to join the party? As stated before, we have beer, and we bitchslap oilfans. It's pretty tight.

[Phaneuf3]

Why hasn't Locke released his birth certificate?

Got something to hide? A secret Muslim past perhaps?

Locke ... i have used my network of connections and strings to solicit an affirmative response from ResAlien regarding your need for someone to fulfill the role of Minister of n00b control. He (I assume he's a he) is unable to respond personally at the moment, but he has relayed his official response by proxy:

ResAlien: "While I cannot in good faith support any type of government, I am willing to accept this position as an independent contractor, much like Blackwater. I expect to be fully autonomous, with no accountability to anyone. As a tyrranical police force I will be morally bankrupt, ethically questionable and wholly corrupt in every sense of the word. No quarter shall be given to those who are reported to me by a far reaching and shadowy network of equally corrupt agents."

Clearly a person with impeccable qualifications and the right attitude for the job.

You know Locke, it seems to me I'm doing more work on this than you are. First I got the ball rolling by being your first official supporter and being the first to plug your campaign in my signature. That's no small sacrifice you know ... I could be running SA quotes by Douglas Adams or Steven Wright instead you know.

Then I find a mechanism to validate your presidency (google search).

And know I've used my influence to fill your Minister of n00bs vacancy.

I'm afraid I'm going to have to ask for more graft if I'm going to continue to support your glorious and righteous (pending your response) campaign. So, in addition to being Minister if Jugs, I also want the Minister of Towels portfolio. Surely that is but a small price to pay for such a hardworking, diligent and tentatively loyal supporter.

You're doing good work and you will be handsomely rewarded...

[jammies]

Guess I better come up with new slogans!

A BITCH SLAP FOR EVERY BITCH - VOTE LOCKE 09

LOCKE - LIKE A JETFIGHTER WITH TANKS ON THE WINGS SHOOTING A-BOMBS STEERED BY FANATICAL KITTENS

ARE YOU WORTHLESS AND WEAK? MAN UP: VOTE LOCKE.

LOCKE 2009: MASOCHISM FOR THE MASSES

Good. I intend to turn that Ministry of Towels gig into a pan-galactic monopoly on the towel trade, which I will use to make obscene profits from on the backs of inter-galactic hitchhiking hippies.
