Back in August, 2008, I travelled to Denver to cover the Democratic National Convention (at which Barack Obama was nominated). I produced and published many well-received and newsworthy reports of the convention…but for various reasons, none of those reports ever appeared at zombietime. In fact, they’ve never even been mentioned or linked on the main zombietime page.
Until now.
Although it’s about four and a half years after the fact, I’ve finally gotten around to compiling in one place a thorough list of all the reports I made in Denver in 2008. I’m posting links to them all here in one place for the first time, and I’ll link to this post from the main zombietime page, finally filling in the last missing section of what is supposed to be the “complete list” of zombie reports.
I hereby present:

It is disheartening to see (four years after the fact) just how much Code Pink truly has in common with “Moochelle, Nance & Hil.”
Equally discouraging that these repugnant public behaviors you document so well have no effect on thousands of eyewitnesses. America truly is stupid - and now, blind.

Secret Agent Z
(to the tune of Secret Agent Man,
with apologies to Johnny Rivers)
Z’s a spook that leads a life of danger.
To everyone it meets, it stays a stranger.
With every move it makes,
A hundred pics it takes,
And they’ll be up on zombietime, forever.
Secret Agent Z!
Secret Agent Z!
They’re sending you to Denver;
We salute your bravery!
Sailing into Denver airport, Sunday;
Surrounded by the riot squad on Monday.
Beware the pepper spray,
And flee the noxious fray,
For there’ll be fresh freaks on display, on Tuesday.
Secret Agent Z!
Secret Agent Z!
Your mission: Fly to Denver,
Infiltrate the DNC.
Blogging from the Kos Tent with Dan Rather;
Z, don’t waste your time on moonbat blather!
Proceed with covert ops,
Steer clear of mounted cops,
And transmit all the intel you can gather.
Secret Agent Z!
Secret Agent Z!
You case the streets of Denver,
Under cloak of secrecy.
Anarchists and communists, uniting,
Form a photo subject quite inviting.
Subversion fills the air –
Insurgents everywhere –
But Z finds photo-subterfuge exciting!
Secret Agent Z!
Secret Agent Z!
An operative undaunted,
Masked in anonymity.
Agent Z, you dutifully render
Photos of the mosque at Civic Center.
A brazen da’wa ploy:
Islamists being coy,
Enticing passing infidels to enter.
Secret Agent Z!
Secret Agent Z!
You show us all the news that
MSM won’t let us see.
Schmoozing with celebrities and Biden;
They don’t see the camera Z is hidin’!
Though glitterati shine,
Their judgment’s asinine:
Observe the one whose coattails they are ridin’.
Secret Agent Z!
Secret Agent Z!
You walk alone among them,
Photographing all you see.
Moonbats on parade in Mile High City;
Agent Z knows this will not be pretty!
Huge puppets rule the day;
All hail Papier-Mache!
The moonbat march inspires only pity.
Secret Agent Z!
Secret Agent Z!
You shoot a poignant portrait
Of the fall of Liberty.
Thousands throng the Field of Invesco,
Worshiping the Chosen One, al fresco.
O Z, your mission’s done;
Now from this madness, run;
Return to Z-HQ in San Francisco.
Secret Agent Z!
Secret Agent Z!
A spy of unknown gender,
And unknown identity.

Bard and RayJ:
Just taking a well-deserved hiatus to deal with non-blogging “real” life.
In the Olden Dayes there would often be months between zombietime posts, and nobody thought twice of it — that was just my standard slow pace. Now that I had been (for a while) in the blog-a-minute frenzy, suddenly when I return to my normal pace, it seems like I’ve gone AWOL! Not really. Just reverting to a somewhat slower schedule. Hopefully, at least.
Meanwhile, there’s now a new post up — return to the main zomblog page to see it!

It’s going to take me quite a while to digest that one! Soon you’ll have an entire zombie tribute album’s worth of masterpieces!

Arise, arise, O Ghastly One, and spread thy fetid wings;
For thee, the poets rhapsodize; for thee, the minstrel sings.
O Muse! Muse! Muse!
O festering fountainhead!
Upon the web, my zombie walks –
Not living, yet undead.
