Både EU-kommissionär Margot Wallström och fp:s gruppledare Johan Pehrson skriver kommentarer till poster här på bloggen denna vecka. Och tidigare har vi haft så väl statsråd som klimatforskare i kommentarsfältet.
Antingen börjar bloggarna bli en etablerad mediekanal, eller också närmar sig EU-valet...
Josh: What's going on?
SvaraRaderaGinger: Hi, sugarlips.
Josh: I'm sorry?
Margaret: Donna struck gold.
Josh: What is it?
Bonnie: LemonLyman.com
Josh: What is it?
Donna: It's your fansite.
Josh: What are you talking about?
Donna: There's a website devoted to all things Josh.
Josh: You're kidding me.
Donna: No.
Bonnie: LemonLyman.com?
Donna: You have fans, Josh. Not many of them from the looks of it, but what they lack in numbers they more than make up for in fervor.
Josh: What do they talk about?
Donna: You. You on Capitol Beat, you on Meet the Press, you in US News and World Report -
Bonnie: Well, there's also the section called "Sightings Around Town".
Donna: This is reserved for actual Josh encounters of the third kind, most of which seem to have taken place in restaurants and haberdasheries to which you've never been, unless you're leading a double life, and I think we both know you're not that clever.
Josh: LemonLyman.com.
Donna: Right now we're viewing the section devoted to the Josh Fantasy Date. This, it should be painfully self-explanatory, is where the women - and more than a few men, I must say - discuss what they would do with you for...(they all giggle, except for Josh).
Josh: Can everybody who doesn't work here please go work where they work?
Margaret: I want to work here now.
Josh: You can get this at your own desk.
Margaret: You'd better believe it.
Josh: Donna!
Donna: Yeah?
Josh: Sit down. We're going to post a response on this site.
Donna: What site?
Josh: LemonLyman.com
Donna: No.
Josh: Yeah, we've got to post a response to someone.
Donna: It's a bad idea.
Josh: Why?
Donna: You don't know these people.
Josh: Neither do you!
Donna: Oh, yes I do.
Josh: What's wrong with them?
Donna: Nobody knows.
Josh: These people are taking a healthy interest in government. They should be applauded.
Donna: THen applaud them, but stay off the site.
Josh: These are the people talking. I'm not an elitist!
Donna: You are an elitist!
Josh: I'm a elitist, but I have respect for people who don't measure up.
Donna: People on these sites tend to be a little hysterical.
Josh: We've got to correct something.
Donna: What?
Josh: Irmatrude writes: "Three nights ago on Nightline, Josh said 'We'll be asking for a GAO study of medicare drug pricing'. Apparently, no one's told Josh that only Congress can ask the GAO to do anything". first of all, how cool is it that they know what the GAO can and can't do?
Donna: Oh, it's cool as all giddy-up.
Josh: Sit down!
Donna: Please don't do this.
Josh: Sit down. Type this: "Irmatrude, thanks for watching me on Nightline. Yes, I do know that only Congress can instruct the GAO. When I said 'we'll be asking', I meant Democrats, and not the White House. Thank you for your concern, Josh LemonLyman.
Donna: You really want to sign off like that?
Josh: It's playful.
Donna: Okay.
Josh: You could get more in the spirit of this, you know.
Donna: The people.
Josh: Yes.
Donna: What Josh doesn't know is that some of these people haven't taken their medication. Let's see what happens now!
Josh: Donna! The internet people have gone crazy!
Donna: You're kidding!
Josh: They're calling the GAO General Josh's Standing Army and saying I don't understand its mandate and purpose. They're saying if I can get a review of anything I want, I should start by reviewing the job of Deputy COS. One guy compares me to a poor man's Clark Clifford in a page and a half of posts debating whether or not I was mocking Egyptians with the Sanskirt reference!
Donna: I told you they were hysterical!
Josh: I thought you meant they were funny.
Donna: They're not!
Josh: I know that! It's Lord of the Flies in there!
Donna: Well, who invited you in the first place?
Josh: It's got my name on it! Look, I don''t want to hear about it anymore. I've got an energy plan in 10 minutes.
CJ: Oh, Josh?
Josh: Yeah?
CJ: The Federal Page of the Washington Post just called Carol to confirm that you;re the Josh Lyman who stated on an internet website that the White House could order a GAO review of whatever it wanted.
Josh: Without threatening the separation of powers, is what I was saying.
CJ: You posted on a website?
Josh: I was communicating with the people!
CJ: Really?
Josh: CJ, it's a crazy place. It's got this dictatorial leader who, I'm sure, wears muumuus and chain-smokes Parliaments.
CJ: Why did you go there in the first place?
Josh: It's called LemonLyman.com!
CJ: Let me wxplain something to you - this is sort of my field. The people on these sites? They're the cast of One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest! The muumuu wearing Parliament smoker? That's Nurse Ratched. When Nurse Ratched is unhappy, the patients are unhappy. You? You're McMurphy. You swoop in with your card games and your fishing trips -
Josh: I didn't swoop in! I came in exactly the same way everybody else did!
CJ: Well, now I'm telling you to open the wardroom window and clim on out before they give you a prefrontal lobotomy and I have to smother you with a pillow!
Josh: You're Chief Bromden?
CJ: I'm Chief Bromden, yes, at this particular moment. I'm assigning an intern from the Press Office to that website. They're going to check it everynight before they go home. If they discover that you've been there, I'm going to shove a motherboard so far up your ass - (Josh smirks) What?
Josh: Well, technically, I outrank you.
CJ: So far up your ass!
Josh: Okay.
CJ: Okay!

SvaraRaderaTill vilka inlägg? Jag läser det mesta du skriver och det skulle vara intressant hur två personer med inflytande bemöter dina utspel
SvaraRaderaDe har väl en sån där "bloggstrategi". :)
