Slog - Comments on Be Dave's Intern http://slog.thestranger.com/2007/12/psssthey_stranger_readers_put_the posted by news intern Brian Slodysko Pssst…hey Slog readers. Put the bong down and log off the Daily Kos for a second. Here's your chance to pay those evil Republicans back for suckling the bourgeois teat of big business and stealing healthcare from crippled children. Congressman Dave Reichert is looking for an intern. Now you can do to the Republican party what Karl Rove has been doing to democracy since he was president of the College Republicans.

My advice? Save every phone call and tape every meeting. Then you either have a way to tank yet another republican, or a sweet way to make extra holiday cash.

I'll always be the expert. I just have this problem with "goals".

Not cool at all.
Go fight Reichert the fair way.

Being sneakl will only rebound and hurt the Democrats.

It'll come out then it will come out that the sneaky intern is gave $25 to the Democrats a year ago or used to be a volunteer for Darcy Burner or some shit like that.

Then the grown ups will have to condemn this & it will hurt Darcy Burner. Also get all over O'Reilly and Fox (A newspaper in liberal Seattle is actually telling readers to lie and infiltrate a blah blah").

Just go work for Darcy.
Duh.

Heaven borbid someone actually wants to better themselves politcally or help their local member of Congress.

Not to mention the entire premise of "faking an internship" never works - not even Rove pulled it off without being caught. But I'm sure the bong readers on this thread already figured that out via a Google search.

Pathetic.
