The Declarer (Floyd McWilliams' Blog)

Friday, July 18, 2003


Not content with lying, politicking, and harassing golfers, the New York Times is now engaging in simple trolling. Todays's Times contains an article (prominently featured on the San Jose Mercury News website) which bemoans a change in the system for contacting the president. Reporter John Markoff tries to convince us that the Bush Administration is making life difficult for citizens. By the third sentence he's already insulted my intelligence worse than anything since The Matrix:


Do you want to send an e-mail message to the White House?

Good luck.

In the past, to tell President Bush — or at least those assigned to read his mail — what was on your mind it was necessary only to sit down at a personal computer connected to the Internet and dash off a note to president@whitehouse.gov.


Let's not forget that it is also possible to write to santaclause@northpole.org and god@heaven.org.
