And No Eye Rolling or Sighing.  You look straight into the camera and speak ernerstly and clearly.  No words of more than two syllables (you can say one syllable words like they have two or three syllables).  Most people with more than 3 brain cells find this difficult.  Even those that are skilled at it sometimes fail (see Colbert).  Good luck and can I write the book blurb?</p></div></div></div> Tue, 24 Feb 2009 00:08:32 +0000 Bluesplashy comment 3941 at http://dagblog.com It's a time-honored method of http://dagblog.com/comment/3936#comment-3936 <a id="comment-3936"></a> <p><em>In reply to <a href="http://dagblog.com/comment/3934#comment-3934">I want to know how Alan Keyes</a></em></p> <div class="field field-name-comment-body field-type-text-long field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><p>It's a time-honored method of self-promotion.</p></div></div></div> Mon, 23 Feb 2009 20:51:43 +0000 DF comment 3936 at http://dagblog.com I want to know how Alan Keyes http://dagblog.com/comment/3934#comment-3934 <a id="comment-3934"></a> <p><em>In reply to <a href="http://dagblog.com/politics/its-hard-out-here-moderate-politician-511">It&#039;s Hard Out Here For A Moderate Politician</a></em></p> <div class="field field-name-comment-body field-type-text-long field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><p>I want to know how Alan Keyes got a book deal. Because if wearing a suit and acting ridiculous is what it takes, I'm going shopping and thinking up a list of the most outrageous things I could say out loud. Then, I'm calling CNN.</p> <p>Next stop: New York Times Bestseller list. Woooooooo.</p></div></div></div> Mon, 23 Feb 2009 20:46:35 +0000 Orlando comment 3934 at http://dagblog.com
