The conventions are here and e-mailers are clamoring to comment, so now’s your chance. Sign into the thread below and follow the WordPress registration steps — after reading our terms of use, of course. If your comments don’t appear immediately, please be patient. It takes time to process them at first. They’ll be there eventually.
Michelle will be in and around Denver this week, Ed will be live on the scene in Minneapolis starting next Monday, and I’ll be posting only the choicest robot-related viral videos, so there should be plenty to comment on. Enjoy, and welcome!
Update: No need to sign in below, actually. You can register by clicking here.

LOL – whatsamatter Ak, somebody pee in your Wheaties today?
fossten on August 25, 2008 at 8:46 AM
haha!
JetBoy on August 25, 2008 at 8:48 AM
Thanks, guys. I’m so excited I don’t know what to say. Don’t worry, that won’t last long.
TexasBeau on August 25, 2008 at 8:48 AM
long-time lurker finally registered – thanks, HA
greydude on August 25, 2008 at 8:51 AM
Finally, an outlet for my inner-conservative! And just in time for Obama’s Sermon on the Mount. Let the games begin.

I missed MM’s last open reg. by a couple of hours.
I spend so much time on HA that I neglect her.
Story of my life.
Any idea as to the next one she might consider?
(nudge, nudge, wink, wink.)
Say no more.

Hi Everyone
CrackrJak on August 25, 2008 at 8:52 AM
Welcome from Sussex County.
davidk on August 25, 2008 at 8:53 AM
Many thanks for holding the door open a bit…
Capitalist Tool on August 25, 2008 at 8:53 AM
I had to re-register because I couldn’t remember my password and my previous email address had been deleted because of a move. Glad you had open registration again.
Kim Priestap on August 25, 2008 at 8:53 AM
Im still waiting on my password from MM to be sent.
Joeyyy on August 25, 2008 at 8:54 AM
Thank you!
This is the most interesting site I’ve found – I don’t have to just talk back to my screen anymore.
tru2tx on August 25, 2008 at 8:54 AM
Ditto that. I miss it every time. We need a “heads up” over here ;-)
JetBoy on August 25, 2008 at 8:56 AM
Oh, great! Now I really am an oldie! :)
OldEnglish on August 25, 2008 at 8:57 AM
Dude! Where the heck have you been? Haven’t heard from you since Thompson was still in the running.
Weight of Glory on August 25, 2008 at 8:57 AM
Well, there goes the neighborhood. Oh, wait, that would be me.
Shep on August 25, 2008 at 8:59 AM
Someone tell JayHaw(k)Phrenzie he can get his “k” now…
JetBoy on August 25, 2008 at 9:02 AM
I have lurked in the dark too long. Yes!
John D on August 25, 2008 at 9:03 AM
Glad to be at the party! Go McCain – defeat Obama lin Biden!
MochaLite on August 25, 2008 at 9:05 AM
Well, how about that?
And the same name that I use on Michelle’s site to boot!
Jim M. on August 25, 2008 at 9:06 AM
Hee, hee. Great use of synecdoche.
davidk on August 25, 2008 at 9:07 AM
Yes! Hello all! Glad to say hi finally. Ya’ll are a favorite part of my day. Fun! Can’t wait to see Michelle.

Yahooooo!!!!
Finally I feel whole!
Thank you for letting some new blood in here!

HoosierCon on August 25, 2008 at 9:10 AM
It is great to be amongst others that are witnessing the dramatic decline of thought and reason. To paraphrase Chesterton – we are in a world where vices and detached virtues (truth without pity and pity without truth for ex) are causing great damage. Hot air is actually fresh air.
Thanks for allowing me to participate.
Fuquay Steve on August 25, 2008 at 9:13 AM
Thanks, Hot Air.
keebs on August 25, 2008 at 9:14 AM
Yay, finally I can comment. It’s hard to stomach the You Tube comment boards. And I almost left this morning without checkin in to HA…… Thx for the opening!
Ozprey on August 25, 2008 at 9:16 AM
Finally I get to register; how marvellous is that? I’ve been reading for a long time and would like to say thank you, to all those who have previously participated, for many lively and entertaining debates. I hope that, in due course, I will be able to reciprocate in kind.
YiZhangZhe on August 25, 2008 at 9:17 AM
Cool, I’m in.
esnap on August 25, 2008 at 9:17 AM
Yoooo-Hooooo! I am finally in! Just in time for all the DNC convention fun. I have really been looking forward to this week. HOT AIR and MM’s site have been at the top of my favorites for a long time. I am really happy to get a chance to finally post here. Thanks!
2Nightmares on August 25, 2008 at 9:18 AM
At last! A chance to exercise my first ammendment right on my favorite new site!
Unfurtunately right now I have nothing to say.
loudmouth883 on August 25, 2008 at 9:18 AM
Glad to finally be able to join the discussion. Thanks
Willie on August 25, 2008 at 9:20 AM
Ciao a tutti!
Love this site, thanks HA
Micina on August 25, 2008 at 9:23 AM
Glad to be on board. Sorry to see Robert Spencer given the boot, though.
Disturb the Universe on August 25, 2008 at 9:24 AM
HOO AAHH
Christmas in August. Thanks for opening registration.
BitterClinger on August 25, 2008 at 9:24 AM
Welcome newbies.
Here’s the official HotAir welcome club: Link.
Too late; you signed up and can’t turn back now.
On second thought, that might be Hillary supporters welcoming her to Denver.
I’m not sure.
SteveMG on August 25, 2008 at 9:24 AM
Yo Hoooo
Dr. Dog on August 25, 2008 at 9:25 AM
Finally! I have had so many witty and insightful comments just bottled up with no outlet to spew them forth. Let me begin by saying that you know who benefits from this latest HotAir comment registration? Mitt Romney.
DWSC on August 25, 2008 at 9:25 AM
Aren’t we so blessed to have the masses of those who will show us how to save the planet and just how they are going to do it in Denver this week.
I sure feel sorry for Denver though….
Mo on August 25, 2008 at 9:27 AM
There goes the neighborhood.
RayinVA on August 25, 2008 at 9:29 AM
welcome new people :)
trailortrash on August 25, 2008 at 9:29 AM
Yay!
I can finally comment! This is a great start to the week!
Rogue on August 25, 2008 at 9:29 AM
Like many others, I’ve been reading HA since its inception, but just now got around to registering. Thanks HA!
JAM on August 25, 2008 at 9:30 AM
Great to finally be on! Boomer Sooner!
superdave on August 25, 2008 at 9:31 AM
Steve.
Let not your heart be troubled, for there are many more of us out there.We aren’t just witnessing, but are going to combat that decline.
gzelmiami on August 25, 2008 at 9:31 AM
It’s about freakin’ time my voice was heard!!
So….. how’s it goin’?
Calm Before the Storm on August 25, 2008 at 9:35 AM
Finally! The Dude is on Hot Air.
thedudesblog on August 25, 2008 at 9:35 AM
Damn! I’ve been waiting a long time since Allahpundit days.
I realize now that one must be out of work and constantly scanning the feeds for an opportunity to comment on the best blog around. Because while I was working, there was no hope of ever, ever being one of the cool kidz.
I’m still not cool, but I’m IN!
That’ll do for now.
Joan of Argghh on August 25, 2008 at 9:35 AM
Finally!
bitsy on August 25, 2008 at 9:36 AM
I waited and waited and waited.
Alas.
Okay .. now I need a democrat to do something stupid to make fun of ..
Kinda’ like waiting for the sun to come up .. you know it’s always just hours away.
cgoode777 on August 25, 2008 at 9:36 AM
That’s a keeper,
I would trademark that!
gzelmiami on August 25, 2008 at 9:37 AM
Thanks for letting us in Capt. Ed! Was an earlier CaptainsQuarters guy but missed signup the last time.
Just in time for the Demo Convention! Let the games begin!

CanadianGuy on August 25, 2008 at 10:04 AM
Why so serious?
TheJoker on August 25, 2008 at 10:04 AM
Closed comment registrations promote inbreeding amongst the commneters and things get a bit strange after a while.
Think of all us newbies as chlorine in this here gene pool.
:o)

Joan of Argghh on August 25, 2008 at 10:05 AM
Welcome newbies!!! No trolling allowed! (hee hee hee) Seriously, good clean conversation is great! Flame wars not so great!
Welcome to the second best blog site on the web! Hey! Let’s be honest. MM’s site is the best! :)
Vntnrse on August 25, 2008 at 10:05 AM
That’s because MM is a cutie ;)
