A Call to Arms!By Nick, Section News
Consider this video the official introduction...
We're now eight days away from Michigan's primary elections and just over three months out from the big day in November. Every day that passes we're being bombarded by liberal messaging through the mainstream media, the newspapers, the evening news and a regressisphere (patent pending) that the Midwest based Sam Adams Alliance estimates is funded to the tune of millions of dollars by George Soros and Jon Stryker. The liberals own the broadcast media. They own the print media. And until recently they've gone entirely unchallenged on the web. Those days are over. PLEASE read on...
RightMichigan launched back at the beginning of 2007. At the time folks like the Lunchbucket Conservative, Republican Michigander, the American Princess and Akindele Akinyemi were fighting a lonely battle for common sense here in-state. This site represented the first foray into conservative community blogging anywhere on the peninsula. Either of them, in fact. Bloggers like Amanda Zaluckyj, Andrew Shirvell, vlogger Juli on the Web and others jumped right on board with what we were doing and things really started to take off. Look at the community now.
A glance at our in-the-sphere columns every morning or the blogroll over on the right (à) and it's pretty apparent things have changed. Slowly but surely conservatives are staking their own claim to the old w w w and we're pushing back against the lefty propaganda machine. But there's more we can do. Frankly, there's more we MUST do. With only three months to go before the most important election in our lifetimes we need all hands on deck. And, bonus, recognizing that there's a Galtian Capitalist in all of us, always pursuing that enlightened self interest, we've got prizes. So without further ado, I'd like to introduce the RightMichigan Bloggers Challenge. The Goal: Expand the Right Roots through increased blogging, community building and online activism. The Means: What follows are a series of blog-centric activities you can do in your spare time today and every day. Most of them won't take five minutes of your time but when we add them up, across the Sphere, they'll make a world of difference.
The Challenge: Starting Monday, August 4, 2008 and running until Friday, August 15 (that's two weeks) grab and perform as many of the specific challenges listed above as you'd like each day (the more the better). ANY CONSERVATIVE in MICHIGAN can participate... whether you have a blog already or start one soon. There are twelve calendar days during the Challenge. Perform at least one of the activities each day on eight or more of those days for a chance to win... That Enlightened Self Interest: A) RightMichigan.com t-shirts... fire up! (I've been saving my nickels and dimes so everyone who participates will receive a t-shirt.) B) The opportunity to conduct one-on-one, exclusive interviews with some of the biggest names in Michigan politics. C) An autographed copy of "Leave Us Alone" by Grover Norquist. (One total) D) An autographed copy of "Real Change" by Newt Gingrich. (One total) E) A $50 gas card (One total, courtesy of MRP Chairman Saul Anuzis) and... F) A ONE DAY GUEST PASS to the Republican National Convention the weekend of September 1-4 at the Xcel Energy Center in downtown St. Paul, Minnesota the weekend! (One total) G) And of course, a better, more active blogosphere as we fire back against the hate speech and vitriol being spewed by the left. G is my favorite prize. Seriously. It's time to take this thing to the next level. With your help we can get it done. Shoot me an email at RightMichigan@gmail.com to let me know you're in and I'll send along some bare-bones reporting guidelines, so I can keep track of who's doing what each day. Three months to go. All hands on deck!
