Ho Ho Ho

Instacracker has had a series of hard-hitting posts on the Bush economy this past week (link and internal links omitted):

LOTS OF big electronics markdowns.

...

A BUNCH OF jewelry on sale, at Amazon.

...

CHRISTMAS DISCOUNTS on gourmet food.

...

A BUNCH OF bargain toys for Christmas and Hanukah. Lots more toy deals here.

...

TOP KIDS-AND-FAMILY DVDs OF 2008.

...

AMAZON PRIME IS on sale for Christmas, letting you get a year of free two-day shipping for $59. I've been an Amazon Prime user since it first started and I've loved it....

Whether "Professor" Reynolds is spreading for amazon.com for free or he's making money on the deal matters not to me. Product placement is as American as Hostess Fruit Pies, and if the 'Cracker's drooling groupies don't mind wasting their time (or are too stupid to find amazon on their own), far be it from me to complain. The triumphs of the blogsphere are that you don't have to label advertising as such, and any content-free whore can get rich or die trying. And its not like anyone takes the 'Cracker seriously anyway.
