Just in case anyone was confused, this isn't really Sinbad. Sinbad wanted us to make that clear to you. Seriously.
Update: I should also let you know that this isn't really Rambo.

I still think it really is Sinbad, and that Sinbad simply misspoke when he talked to you. The poor guy has gotta be sleep-deprived these days, what with all the decisions he faces. . . .

Me too. If that wasn't the real Sinbad, then answer this question: how did he manage to not make me laugh so consistently?

So there are apparently those who still don't understand that they should believe very little of what they encounter in discussion boards, particularly when it comes to posters' identities.

How do you know it's the real Sinbad that wanted us to know that?
I still believe you're real, Andrew.

Also, you know what's terrible... the rela Nature Boy is a Huckabee supporter!
How can the jet flyin' limo ridin' wheelin' dealin' kiss stealin' son of a gun like Huckabee?

My guess: Huckabee supports the FairTax and all that jet flyin' limo ridin' wheelin' dealin' & kiss stealin' doesn't come cheap. But I'll grant that it seems a lot less likely than Chuck Norris.

Wait, Golis, dude, you actually got to talk to Sinbad? How awesome was that? Is he going to demand an apology from Hillary Clinton for disparaging him? Can we have him on as a guest blogger? Seriously! Table for One: Sinbad. Please, please, please. Do it. Do it, or I'll never stop asking.

It was only email sadly. A lower level of awesome, but still awesome!

So, how about it? Can we get a Sinbad guest post? I'm not saying you have to give him a whole week, but give him a post on the front page at least. They'd do it over at HuffPo. You want to be better than huffpo, don't you? Don't you?

Hah!! I love the last graph from that article:
"Still, defending Clinton against Sinbad the refuter, Singer said, "The sad reality of what was going on in Bosnia at the time Senator Clinton traveled there as first lady has been well documented..."
Damn straight it has been documented. All over YouTube baby. :)

Did Sinbad phone you from Bosnia? Did he mention if he's stuck under an armored vehicle to avoid sniper fire? If not, it can't be the real Sinbad.

Sinbad should stop going through TPM Management, and post a damn blog already.
In any case, I am going to keep on believing that Fake Sinbad is the real Sinbad, and I don't give a shit what Sinbad says about it.

Thanks. But your post isn't as funny as Sinbad's so unfortunately I don't think anyone should believe you.

It is Time to Shut Down Hillary Clinton
With Democratic race getting nastier by the day and Republican nominee wandering the world looking Presidential, it is time that Democrats brought an end to the nomination race.
Hillary Clinton is stretching her experience claims each day. She and her camp are trying to dig up dirt on the front runner so much so that it could damage the Democrats in fall. Hillary's trip to Bosnia under hail of fire has been discussed much in the media. Last night on Larry King Live, the renown journalist Maureen Dowd who accompanied Hillary put paid to Hillary's peace claims in Ireland. She said that apart from having tea with old ladies, Hillary had no contribution towards the Irish peace on that trip.
There is no mathematical possibility of Hillary Clinton winning the nomination. She is likely to win Pennsylvania, but she is 21 points behind Obama in North Carolina according to latest opinion polls.
It is time that a large number of Democratic Senators, Congressmen/women and party officials step forward and endorse Barack Obama in order to shut down Hillary Clinton before she does more damage to the party. Perhaps this is what Harry Reid was talking about yesterday.

Um, what does this have to do with Sinbad?
And, um, did you actually say "renown" and "journalist" in the same sentence as "Maureen Dowd"???
OH -- I get it. Satire!
Funny!!!
Good stuff.

Whoa! Sinbad, eh? Now that you have his email address ask him to tell you the story of Pee Pee Johnson at the Class Reunion. Good stuff.

O wait - I get it! Is this like how T.I. isn't really T.I. anymore, but T.I.P. now?

I thought Sinbad was the guy with the Genie, the lamp, and the monkey.
Now you say he's a comedian and a TPM blogger?
So much for that lying so-and-so Scheherazade, and her 1001 first dates.

You know, I think this qualifies as the most awesome thing I've heard all week. Was his concern that he felt he was being impersonated and that this would be taken seriously?
