Left I on the News

Well, not exactly. But if you were thinking of applying for a job with the Obama Administration, and I just know many of you had that in mind, be aware that you need to answer this question:

(10) Writings: Please list and, if readily available, provide a copy of each book, article, column or publication (including but not limited to any posts or comments on blogs or other websites) you have authored, individually or with others.

You have been saving copies of all your blog comments, haven't you?

There are some other interesting questions as well. Consider this one, especially in light of the recent campaign and the "Bill Ayers" attack against Obama:

(61) Have you had any association with any person, group, or business venture that could be used – even unfairly – to impugn or attack your character or qualifications for government service?

Even unfairly? Are you kidding me? Why not just ask "have you ever 'palled around' with a 'domestic terrorist', or has anyone ever claimed you have?

And you have been recording your entire life, haven't you?

(12) Speeches: Please identify all speeches you have given. If available please provide the text or recordings of each such speech or identify any recordings of speeches of which you are aware.

Curiously, no "are you now or have you ever been a member of the Communist Party?" although some might say that falls under question 61 above.
