1. Isn't he a sweetie? We are lucky to have him posting on DU.
TayTay got to meet him at the Faneuil Hall event. I'm so jealous! :D

2. curious - as to what he looks like?
Not that it really matters. It's the stuff inside that makes one beautiful on the outside.

but....just curious nonetheless

3. You know, I didn't even think to ask her that. I did ask how old she
thought he was. Now that you mention it: I am kinda curious.

5. He's young! Talented and bright too. Maybe he has a future as a pol.
He has my vote if he does. :)

11. I'll second that. (and I got to meet him, too).
:P

But I was too busy trying to get our wireless connection working so I hardly got to talk to him at all.

17. He was very nice.
Whome and I chit-chatted with him for awhile. He said some stuff 'bout Sen. Kerry and the mountains that he will have to climb if he decides to run again.

Will is great. He didn't even walk away after my lame Three Stooges joke. And he really wanted the 'Press' pass. (Silly amatuers. Those are the real press passes. You were expecting what, maybe gold-plated ones or something?)

20. Why does he ONLY post primarly on GD here lately?
Edited on Mon May-08-06 10:07 AM by zann725
I know he's busy with is own "Truthout" blog, but this last year he's posted almost entirely here on "GD." What's up?

"GD" is such a "general" (and "safe") site. No offense intended. But Will IS a well-known as a SERIOUS "political" blogger/journalist. Why just post primarly on GD here and now? (Or have I missed some of Will's posts elsewhere lately?)

8. He's my favorite blogger/journalist
You can go to www.truthout.org and see all of his articles in the archives. Start by clicking on a recent piece of his, then you'll see a link to "read more by Will Pitt". He's got some really good pro-Kerry ones. And he's great at slicing the Bushies to ribbons.

9. This is great! Thanks Will!
I just listened to Kerry's "Dissent" speech again. Damn he's good! I would really love to hear yesterday's speech.

12. Well, he's a much better writer than KOS. Is he working on any more
books, I wonder? Book tours drum up public interest and new books usually get air time.

He would make a great television pundit or progressive radio show host. I don't know what we can do though, other than buy his books and support his posts.

As for KOS, his site is better than he is as a blogger. The blog has become KOS and he personally is not as important as the creature he created.

18. Talk him up. Let on that he is the real thing.
He is a journalist and reporter who doesn't make them up as he goes along to suite his point of view. Trust the truth not the Kos rot. Antway, this is just a suggestion.

19. You know, sometimes? I want to make out with him, too.
Well, I do! Event though I understand that he is now off the market again, and good for Will, I say.
