Yesterday I announced my second annual HA Pledge Week with an ambitious goal of $6000 from 150 readers… and in the first 24 hours we raised $945 from 16 contributors. That’s a great start. A big thanks to everybody who has contributed thus far.
This pledge drive is crucial for a number of reasons, not the least of which being that maintaining HA has become a full time job, and for the moment, my only source of regular income. The ads you see and the contributions you make are what permit me to pay my bills and keep on blogging. But I also have ambitious plans to expand HA over the coming months, and your demonstrated commitment will make it all the more possible for me to raise the kind of money necessary to make my vision a reality.
If HA has become a regular part of your daily routine, please show your appreciation by contributing today. And if you believe we need more progressive media, not less, then your contribution is all the more important.
All Facts = $40
Pony up jerks!!!
I help donate billions to right wing talk radio by listening to the commercials. Sorry, I am tapped out. roof roof.
Hey you fucking loser… I’ve made the offer before and I’ll make the offer again. I’ll send $100 to your daughter’s school so she can eat the lunch that her loser father can’t afford to buy for her. Does she still go to school in the ghetto where almost ALL students gets a “free” lunch?
I’ll send $100 cash with a note that it goes to your daughter’s lunch account. No return address.
Loser…
If you decline, I suggest you try something along the lines of “marketable skills”.
AND a growing economy. The recession started in March 2001 and ended in November 2001 The entire recession was on Bush’s watch.
BULLSHIT
The very definition of a recession is two straight quarters of negative job growth. I know you donks are not good at math so I will do it for you.
Recession March 2001 = (October + November + December = Negative jobs) + (January + February + March = Negative jobs). Who was president the majority of that time??? Proof positive that donks leave the economy in shambles. roof roof.
Great Job ABC News – what a travesty!
BULLSHIT
Too much shit in one’s diet eats away at the brains – not that there was much to start with.
The most commonly accepted definition of recession is two straight quarters of decline in real gross domestic product.
Apparently too much faux noise at the wingnut homeschool?
Hey you fucking loser…
Tsk.. tsk.. so hard on yourself.
The terms of the bet you challenged Goldy to and then lost was to send the $100 to the cause of the winner’s choice – and the winner’s choice was the committee to re-elect Maria Cantwell.
Please pay your fucking gambling debt – it’s well overdue.
@3 MTRP, the best part of those free lunch
kids is 89% of them have a cellphone. I think
we may be doomed. I’m watching Hillary and
Obamanation promise me free healthcare. Screw
that I want free lunch too! You can’t buy
this kind of entertainment.
@3 Gotta go, sniper fire….
Goldy holds a pledge drive?
There’s always the free lunch program Goldstreaks……..my advice for your radio career? wait for your sac to fall and get a masculine radio voice. If little Davie Ross can do it, so can you.
re 4: Wages are not just stagnant, they’re regressing. What goes into someone elses pocket comes out of mine. Zero-sum game, smartass.
You are losing, too. But you seem to take a perverse satisfaction that the rich are getting richer.
Bitter? I think you are.
Once again … to anyone seeking donations … you will get a lot more donations if you also list a P.O. box. I, and I’m sure a great many others, will NEVER donate online if we have to use our credit or debit card. Not looking for a debate here. Just saying the facts.
We will go through our budget this weekend and see how much we can cough up.
HA has given our group throughout the year many hours of great discussions.
We Click the Ads regularly, of course that’s just pennies.
“If HA has become a regular part of your daily routine, please show your appreciation by contributing today. And if you believe we need more progressive media, not less, then your contribution is all the more important.”
Specially trolls and haters ought to donate BIG
(imagine how much money they are saving on shrinking, just by venting here !)
“your demonstrated commitment will make it all the more possible for me to raise the kind of money necessary to make my vision a reality.
mazel tov !
belated birthday wishes, may all your plans come through!
podcasts much more entertaining then radio shows, thx
This is one of the most blatant blog beggar campaigns I have seen. This goes way beyond a tip jar. It reminds me of the Jerry Lewis Telethons. Real bloggers either make enough money off of their sites to exist, or they have other gainful employment.
Get a P.O. Box and I’ll donate.
#13 ct spews:
Ask Goldy what is so hard about getting a po box or an a snail-mail address we can send a donation to.

as they say: “Don’t Feed the Troll” another, more graphic saying, goes something like
“arguing with internet trolls is like rolling around with a pig in its sty. You eventually realize the pig likes it, and now you’re just covered in shit.”
Sorry Sir, I don’t have Mr. Goldstein’s patience.
