The Huffington Post is arguably one of the blogosphere’s most influential websites. In the nearly two years that the site has been active it has become a bellwether for freedom of speech and progressive political thought. The website is gearing up to post a daily feed from volunteer contributors regarding the 2008 United States presidential campaign.
Your favorite blogger, DALLAS PENN, respectfully submitted a letter of intent to join the fray of writers and since I am a registered Republican I volunteered to document the campaign efforts of RUDOLPH GIULIANI. Unfortunately for me the Huffington Post doesn’t deem my writing skills worthy of their bandwidth. So instead I will continue with my own posts describing the people and the politricks that will lead up to Election ’08 right here at DP Dot Com.
Even though my drops about politricks usually appear to fall on deaf ears(no Foxy Brown’s stolen hearing aid) I will be persistent in my quest to remind the Huffington Post, ne, the world wide web, that the voices of Hip-Hop whether they be urban or suburban speak as one clamorous boom bap against poverty and injustice.
Your loss, Huff Post. You bitches!
