You tell 'em, sister. And mad props to Bratmobile.
Briefly: does anyone know of a nice, low-cost (i.e. no-cost) polling device that I can use to put up my finalists from the Bush-Cheney 2004 slogan contest?
By the way, the semi-finals were a disaster. Of the 20 or so comments, only one voted for one of the choices listed. The rest submitted or re-submitted their own slogans, a vast majority of which will not be included in the finals because they're so hella-lame.
In summary, you are all willful, disobedient children and, as a result, there will be no special X-treme Green Chili Chee-tos Casserole with Ranch Dipping Sauce for supper tonight. Only lentil soup. Without the lentils. Plus, you get the Gasface.
I think that is your own fault - you explicitly told us that we were allowed to "suggest your own for wild-card inclusion into the finals."
And we did and a lot of them sucked - but you have no one to blame but yourself.
Anyway, if I have to vote for one of your inane pre-selected slogans instead of my own inane ones, I vote for "$54.40 a Barrel or Fight!"

And the one you picked is definitely going to be a finalist, come hell or high water.
