WASHINGTON - Tom Daschle is coming soon to a blog near you.

The Senate minority leader and South Dakota Democrat will post a daily diary on his official Web site as he drives around the state next month during Congress' annual August recess, he said Wednesday. The diary is modeled on the growing phenomenon of the online journals known as Weblogs, or blogs for short.

"At the end of the day, wherever I am, I can just type up some thoughts and tell stories about things that happened," Daschle said. "I'm always up for trying something new."

Well tommy boy, we knew you liked to tell stories, every time your lips move.

Wonder how many times "I was deeply saddened" and "I was deeply disappointed" will come up?

[gov_bean_ counter]

A series of "short" stories?

Yikes! I guess I might have to come out of my unofficial semi-retirement.

This will be too good to pass up.

Have you seen this website, dedicated to SD politics? It's pretty good.

Woke up feeling pretty good this morning. My mood did deteriorate when I discovered that I had only dreamed I was 5'6" tall. Those two extra inches would have made me invincible.

"Dear Diary...I never thought this would ever happen to me, but I was working late in my office when Barbara Mikulski walked in, looking as alluring as always. We started drinking some wine and before you know it..."

I like your tag line. You may want to add, Bob Hope was also a Republican by choice & he never made any bones about it.

A series of "short" stories?"

LOL! (Very short.)

August 1 - Viagra not working. Must call Barney Frank to see if he has any tips.

August 2 - Visited Custer State Park for '04 Victory Strategy Session with Walter Mondale and Michael Dukakis. These guys sure know alot about winning.

August 3 - Spent day on phone with Rev. Al discussing his proposal for renaming the Black Hills as the "Hills of Alternative Color."

August 4 - Even though Viagra not working, heard Rush Limbaugh call me a Big D*ck today on the radio. If only he knew.

August 5 - Visited Mt. Rushmore. Bill Clinton wants his likeness added. May appropriate money to name restrooms at the park after him instead.

August 6 - Phone call with Nancy Pelosi did what Viagra couldn't, particularly when she described the thong she was wearing.

August 11 - Got lost for five days on the Mickelson Trail...there is a metaphor here somewhere.

August 12 - Got wasted at the Crazy Horse Casino with Teddy Kennedy. Had to stop him from performing unnatural acts with the slot machine. Then again, maybe Sandra Day O'Connor would have found it to be constitutional.

August 13-20 - Spent week handing out coats and firewater in exchange for votes next year. Isn't it great to watch Native Americans participate in the Democratic process?

August 21-24 - Held town hall meetings for the geezers at the Hiawatha Room of the Rapid City Motel 6. Just call me Pander Bear.

August 25 - Told Terry McAuliffe to STFU. Refused to go bail out Gray Davis in California with the Clintons.

August 26 - Bought new lift shoes. Hope no one notices the 4" heals.

August 27 - Practiced being smarmy.

August 28-31 Press conferences to denounce Bush for taking a vacation. Two shakedown meetings/fundraisers with wife's lobbying clients. They want votes, they better pony up the wampum.
