The Huffington Post is now auctioning off a two-month internship that they modestly call a chance to “jumpstart your career in the blogosphere.” The next bid must be at least $15,500.

We say it looks like a pretty clever way to pick up a few bucks. So in the grand tradition of capitalism that the Huffington Post would never understand, we hereby offer to undercut their price and offer internships at IHateTheMedia.com for a mere $14,500.

It’s all part of a charity auction being run at CharityBuzz.com. So far ten liberal lunatics have actually bid on the internship. Additional bids will be accepted through May 28, 2009. The winning bidder can serve their internship in HuffPo’s Washington, DC or New York office.

Fact is, we really don’t need any interns, but this looks like a pretty sweet money making scheme. We get a gaggle of interns paying us $14,500 every two or three months while we spend the day eating bonbons.

Please send your checks to IHateTheMedia.com, PO Box 13309, San Luis Obispo, CA 93406-3309.

Ahhh, life is good.

We might bid on the Streisand wax statue.

When Earth Hour rolls around next year, we’ll turn out the incandescents and light Barbra up like a big ol’ candle. It’ll be the first time she’s ever shed light on anything.
