"Abramoff fingerprints found on president's ass"Since you started it :evilgrin:, here's something my son sent me this morning:
50 Most Loathsome People in America, 2005Some of them are extremely satisfying, including a few I wouldn't dare post on DU. Here's a safe sample:
43. Rush Limbaugh Charges: Rather than engage in the admittedly difficult task of justifying GOP policies rationally, the key to Limbaugh's success is attracting an audience that actually yearns to be lied to. It doesn't matter how many righteous fact-checkers assail him in print and on the web, because dittoheads don't care that he's lying, as long as the lies justify their prejudices. Limbaugh's program is not just hypocritical; it is a celebration of hypocrisy for ignorant crackers, angry at smart people and strung out on the dwindling sensation that they are better than everyone else by virtue of their race, sex, nationality or level of bluster, because their character and accomplishments don't warrant such feelings. If political discussion were sex, the Limbaugh audience would be a horde of virgins beating off to deranged rape fantasies.
Exhibit A: Started out in sports radio; hasn't changed his approach one bit.
Sentence: Starved to death in full view of glazed ham; ACLU mistakenly bestowed entire estate due to barbecue sauce stain on last will and testament.
5. Tom Delay Charges: A politician so horrible, his prior career as an exterminator constitutes fratricide. Smiled for his mug shot like it was a campaign poster. Asked three young Katrina evacuees, "Now tell me the truth, boys, is this kind of fun?" One of an elite handful of white Americans still engaged in the time-honored tradition of screwing over Indians. Responding to a request he extinguish his cigar in a restaurant in accordance with federal regulations, Delay replied, "I AM the federal government." Claimed that there was "no fat left to cut" from the federal budget to offset New Orleans reconstruction costs. So arrogant in abuse of power that he doesn't even take time to construct plausible lies.
Exhibit A: Explaining his failure to enlist during Vietnam: "'So many minority youths had volunteered' that there was literally no room for patriotic folks like myself."
Sentence: Bashed to death with hammer.
