2009 Thrown Shoe Awards

You probably remember the Iraqi newsman who threw his shoe at President Bush last year during a new conference. Apparently that is a sign of great disrespect in primitive cultures, so I thought I would metaphorically borrow it. The Thrown Shoe award goes to those individuals that I believe are the 1o most rotten scoundrels of 2009. Here are my picks:

10) Billy Mays - His face always reminds me how he would yell at me.

9) Senator Charles Schumer - The most outrageous liberal in congress. Thank you for sharing, New York.

8) Michael Jackson - I really don't care what he looked like, or what his father did to him - in the end he goes down in my book as an unconvicted pedophile

7) Tiger Woods - The greatest golfer ever to walk the earth, but not so good as a father and husband.

6) Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid - His belief that any health care bill is better than no health care bill has brought us the current pile of rubbish.

5) House Speaker Nancy Pelosi - She and Harry, two rubes cut from the same cloth.

4) Senator Barbara Boxer - She was able to fly under the radar for much of 2009, however her comment equating Viagra with abortion has vaulted her to the top.

3) Bernie Maddoff - After his conviction for bilking investors out of $65 billion, had the nerve to ask for bail because of the help he has provided prosecutors.

2) President Barrack Obama - His reckless spending designed only to create a European socialist government will cause American suffering for years.

1) Al Gore - For perpetuating the largest fraud on the citizens of the world in history.

Who did I miss?

  1. NE Senator Ben Nelson for selling his vote so the rest of the country can forever pay for his state's increase in Medicare under ReidCare.

    MSM for ignoring the inconvenient truths revealed in ClimateGate.

    HSS Janet Napolitano for claiming "the system worked" when pure luck prevented another terrorist attack on American soil.

    The Democrat's own clown in the Senate, Al Franken. His mere existence is worthy of several shoe throws.

    Mark Sanford's hike along the Appalachian Trail that turned out to be a(nother) visit to his mistress in Argentina.

    The EPA's endangerment finding declaring CO2 is a hazard to human health.

  2. I agree that I missed Franken. Maybe a few hundred thousand thrown shoes to the voters of Minnesota. What were they thinking?

    I blame Dirty Harry more that I blame Nelson. Harry could have been a little closer to the top.
