“Be careful what you wish for.\u00a0 You may get it”.<\/p>\n
That old adage has been proven truer than ever today, as Nih[i]list in Golf Pants not only loses in its nakedly transparent bid for\u00a0a repeat win in the coveted (by leftybloggers and Nihilist) City Pages “Best Blogger (Right Wing)” award.<\/p>\n

Almost.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sorry for the “loss”, NIGP crew.\u00a0 But it’s good that you’ve shown your true, “blue” colors.<\/p>\n
