Ok, you got me to subscribe. Following in my family tradition, I guess, as my dad had a subsription when I was in HS and College;>

Hey Kevin -- you claim to be a nonprofit organization. I have two questions for you:

1. Does the IRS know you all practice politics? You may not, if you want to keep your tax exempt status.

2. Why do you have a .com domain?

But what exactly has Washington Monthly done to serve the goals of an independent, liberal media holding the administration and conservatives accountable? I mentioned giving this issue over to the latter and the bizarre slant of its college ratings. But when I try to think of other inspiration, I come up with things like Amy Sullivan's lambasting liberals as godless and intolerant. (Well, sometimes I wish she were even close to right, . . . .) Even TNR sometimes does more.

Look, if it were a fund to keep Kevin in business, we might consider it, but running a blog is a lot cheaper. Web hosting, after all, can be $100/year.

I'll donate if you bring back Friday Cat Blogging.

I agree with Apot - I miss Friday Cat Blogging - but artcrit and Norman are just plain selfish, enjoying all this good stuff for free and acting insulted when asked for a contribution. What does your mortgage banker say when treat her that way? BTW, Subscriber for more than 20 years, financing two gift subscriptions for five years, and just made a donation. My conscience is clear.

Web hosting, after all, can be $100/year.

Senator Lieberman, you were asked not to post here.

Norman, an entity can be a non-profit and not be tax-exempt. And I want to know if all the churches that host "Justice Sunday" events or that offer up their members as GOP recruting targets are also prepared to give up their tax exempt status.

I just made a small donation.

Why?

No other site offers commentary and analysis that is both provocative and well-reasoned -- besides being clearly written, balanced, and nicely presented. Also, no other site offers a comparable forum for posting one's own opinions and reading the insights of others -- which themselves are often funny and informative.

Thanks, Mr. Drum, for expanding the bounds of "the best that is known and thought" in the virtual world.

P.S. And, question me this: what site is so gracious that it offers a forum for those who like to bitch and blog but still not donate!

Doug, the whole point of being a non-profit is to soak up government largesse. In addition to the IRS benefits (donors can claim tax exemptions), the organization itself is exempt from local property taxes and sales tax.

But such organizations usually choose a .org domain.

I'm curious -- just what is the business and tax status of the Washington Monthly? Does anyone know? Is Kevin claiming that donations are tax preferenced?

Kevin, can you also set up one of those Amazon donation buttons? I really like donating with those amazon buttons, and avoiding paypal.

I just want to reitterate how much I like the Amazon donation button.

Please put one up.

There are a lot of people who do shopping on Amazon. Many of us use the 1-click shopping. And that's how easy it is to donate using Amazon's donate button. You can click and donate. It's that simple and that's why I love it.

I've been asking: How much would it cost me to get one enttry of cat blogging with new photos? I miss catblogging, and I'm willing to pay for it. How much? It's like you don't want my money...

I agree with joe - i have an amazon account already and that'd be much easier. I hate putting my CC info in anywhere I don't have to.

The one click thing is awesome.

I did just subscribe though, first time sub. can't wait for the first issue. But I clicked the "bill me" box...

I think American Hawk may be onto something.

Why doesn't Political Animal break new fundraising and catblogging ground by hosting readers' cat pictures on Fridays? I see no harm in that. It's not exactly renting the Lincoln bedroom, is it? Say something like $100 per picture or per cat image or something like that. $50 to mention the animal's name. $100 more for a one-sentence adoring description of the moment depicted. $1,000 for subliminal political messages in the picture (if Kevin catches them). All in a good all-American business spirit.

Norman, you're an idiot. Not-for-profit status is simply another way to organize a business. Non-profit does not mean tax exempt. It means profits of the business are not distrubeted to shareholders. That's really about it.

WHO WILL WIN?!?!?

JS, that is brilliant.

"P.S. And, question me this: what site is so gracious that it offers a forum for those who like to bitch and blog but still not donate!" I hate to tell you guys, but the request for money was the first time I have used this space in months and months, and I don't need it. Look, I dropped my subscription to the Atlantic Monthly when I saw no interest any longer in Robert Kaplan's apologies for raw power, James Fallows's odd predictions like his praise for Bush's debating skills and Murdoch's being above politics, and other not exactly liberal but bizarre things not worth reading. How many obligations to support magazines do you guys think I have? Shall I send cash to the National Review every time a liberal blogger links to it?

Now, there's a case to be made that Kevin's blog deserves funding. Not a huge case. I'm not kidding when I say it's not that expensive. Lots of people blog and you're not paying them. But regardless, it is NOT the case that Kevin made. Did you actually read him? He said that we're to fund the magazine as a necessary, critical voice in the war against Bush. So what's wrong with my believing it's not and taking my readership and money elsewhere? I thought it was liberal wackos who the DLC types think can't tolerate disagreement. So is it really the center right? No skin off my back if I don't ever read or post again.

I told myself that when I graduated and moved somewhere semi-permanent, I'd get myself a subscription to a magazine. It was either you guys or the economist. Kevin, you put me over the line, you're getting my money...

I'm curious: how many people give/subscribe based on donation week?
