Special Blog Post:
Featured Bumper Sticker
This attractive bumpersticker will look nice on any post-1970s vehicle of reasonable quality and workmanship, and proceeds of sales go to keeping The Dark Wraith Forums online. Yes, you too can have the bumper sticker designed to amuse and annoy former Bush supporters finally noticing the five years of phone messages from Clueville.
That's right, and if you order before midnight, you will also receive the gratitude of the Dark Wraith, a $19.95 value not available in stores.
You get all this for only $3.99.
And while you're visiting the e-store, be sure to check out all the other Dark Wraith merchandise, including the attractive courier bag and the ultimate in tasteful coffee mugs seen on the left. Carry the bag to work or school, and people will know right where you stand on the issues of the day. Drink coffee from the mug, and you just might start channeling the Dark Wraith, himself, as you cruise the Blogosphere. Now, wouldn't that scare the Hell out of friends, families, and concerned pets? Each and every item says, "I know the Dark Wraith, so back off, or I'll get him to write another obtuse post about economics that'll make everyone fall asleep until after the November elections."So order today!
UPDATE:
The bumper sticker above will be offered until 12:01 a.m. EST on Sunday, April 2, 2006, at which time it will be replaced in The Dark Wraith Forums e-Store catalogue with the bumper sticker below.
The Dark Wraith thanks you for your support.

I want one of these bumper stickers for all my friends.
Great web site, by the way. I discovered you on account of your Koufax Award nomination, and plan to keep checking in!
Good afternoon, Ilex Opaca, and welcome to The Dark Wraith Forums.
Well, even though I got slaughtered in the Finals of the Koufax Awards voting (I'm pretty sure I can in last), I certainly did get some cool new people to come to The Dark Wraith Forums.
By the way, I try to do these blunt promotions only rarely. It always makes me feel a little creepy to get this close once again to my old days in business. However, the comment by Newt Gingrich about what the Democrats should have for their slogan just drove me bananas. I couldn't let something that good go.
Now, if this variation I've done on the bumper sticker catches on, Newt's going to be even less popular with the Republicans than he already is these days. Imagine it: one of their own inspiring their enemies with a battle cry.
The Dark Wraith finds more than a touch of irony in that possibility.
I love that it came from Newt Gingrich -- I looked at that article and laughed. Now I just have to decide how many to order.
Good evening, Dark Wraith.
I like that new bumper sticker. I will be ordering a couple. Like Ilex Opaca, I have to decide how many. I already have 2 mugs, but the courier bag looks like it's pretty sturdy. With all the important stuff (bills to pay and camera, lunch, soda, etc.) I have to carry to work, I wonder if it's large enough? I did get one of your mouse pads. When I ordered it, I didn't realize it came with it's own live mice. My cats were thrilled!
(Very curious to know if Ilex Opaca does anything special to celebrate Christmas....
(The holly and the ivy,
When they are both full grown,
Of all the trees that are in the wood
The holly bears the crown.......)

Good morning, Dark One.
I did a little early birthday shopping for my-own-self yesterday. Who me, narcissistic?
Anyway, I'm placing your sticker right next to my "Good girls go to Heaven but bad girls go everywhere" sticker.
That should keep the farmers here in East Jesus scratching their head and winding their butts for a while.
Good morning Mr. Wraith,
I won't buy one for myself, as I will not subscribe to blanket support of voting Democrat. My Impeach Bush stickers on my vehicle probably brand me enough for what I am not.
I do however, subscribe to blanket support of pissing off the GOP whenever possible - both as a distraction and divisionary tactic, as well as a bit of personal satisfaction. To that end I have a proposal for you.
Establish a method to accept donations (like Paypal) on your site, and I will donate $100 to you as seed money. The purpose of this donation is to create a short-term fund repository that others can contribute towards. These funds would be earmarked for use by you for the specific purpose of purchasing your bumperstickers at wholesale prices. These gifts would then be mailed by you to key members of Congress, RNC, Newt.org, etc. A reasonable portion of the funds could be used for web support, and the occasional can of Spam (of course).
Should you chose to accept this offer, I might suggest that the citation to Newt be enlarged a bit and more specifically cited.
As an independent I would hate to openly say to vote for one party. I guess preferring to vote for a change is better than voting democrat.
I never had you pegged for a Dem, but I'm not a very observant person.
Good afternoon, DonViti.
No, I'm not a Democrat; I am, however, an entrpreneur. I sometimes hate to admit it, but it's in my blood, and when I see a market—provided the product is legitimate and there is a social good (or at least a minimum of social harm) to be had in its production, sale, and use—I shall have an interest in probing the market for an opening.
The Republicans have opened a gate. The densest market to satisfy with the hole of outrage is Democrats. That's the first psychographic profile I shall then explore.
If this is a decent market, I shall subsequently open into other offerings. My goal is to use what the Republicans like to tout: good, old-fashioned, free market economics. It's their theme, and on a silver platter they're handing a good entrepreneur the chance to take profitable advantage of their weakness.
As I say in economics classes, free markets are great for the winners, but they're a bitch for the losers.
This year, I think it's going to be a bitch to be a Republican.
The Dark Wraith has to head to class, now.
Heya Dark Wraith.
When I mentioned getting one of your mouse pads and that the cats were thrilled with the mice that came with it, I was trying to make a joke because "pad" used to be the term for an apartment, and a mouse pad would be an apartment for mice... Ha ha - I know... not funny. Okay. So, anyway, I am quite appreciative of the mouse pad. It works much better than the previous two I had.
Many of us are not Democrats as such, we vote for the best person running. I admit, I did vote for Ross Perot. I liked his message.
I do like your new bumper sticker, too. I find the "inspired by" line to be quite entertaining.
