[Major Hogwash]

1. Keith refused my request to allow me to appear on his program

I told him that I could come on his show and talk like I knew what I was talking about just as well as some of the guests he has had on his program lately.

But the top 10 excuses he gave to refuse my request were :

10. I couldn't explain to him how "split screens" worked, in layman's terms
9. I wasn't sure there was a city bus running to where his studio is located
8. I had no new tattoos to show off that would require me to remove clothing
7. I couldn't provide a copy of my birth certificate, in English
6. I wasn't able to recite the entire Constitution from memory
5. I had never eaten at 1 of Herman Cain's pizza restaurants
4. I wouldn't agree to drop my pants and fire a rocket on the air
3. I blew the Kim Kardashian trick question about why she's famous
2. I was just a friggin' blogger, and he has had it with friggin' bloggers
1. The cameras aren't capable of displaying more than one ginormous head at a time

I gotta get my own show before they cancel MSNBC altogether.
