Dingbat, Dunce, Dummy and Dodo Brain awards show

And the Dingbat Award goes to...Nancy Pelosi

 

The Obama administration promised transparency in government, and has been lauded as the first administration of its kind, they have not failed to deliver. If they say they will be transparent, they will, and they are. So transparent that they are wrapping sensitive, top secret enhanced interrogation techniques, with a big red bow and handing them directly to this countrys' enemies. Putting our troops and American Ambassadors in danger, as well as any American traveling abroad, not to mention opening a can of worms to international tribunals. Any country that is against the United States will now be able to use these pictures as propaganda against us. Sending waves of anger throughout the terrorist world, fueling their hatred toward the US and anyone with ties to this country.

 

House Speaker Pelosi is pushing hard for the release of pictures of water boarding and enhanced interrogation techniques. Believing that she is without reproach in the decision to water board prisoners (with a doctor present, and giving ˜break times"). Ms. Pelosi is putting herself at the top of the list for criminal prosecution of those that approved this technique after 9/11, even asking if this technique was harsh enough to get the information that was needed to protect American lives.

 

How soon we forget our fellow Americans flinging themselves from burning buildings, and our own countrymen being beheaded. Was there a doctor present at their beheading? Since House Speaker Pelosi puts herself square in the middle of the fray, the GOP will stop at nothing to prosecute her for her own role in the decision to water board prisoners. And knowing all this information, she still pushes ahead with this hare brained idea, garnering her the prestigious Dingbat award.

The next award is the Dunce Award, it is given for supreme stupidity, and though we had many nominees, only one could take the award home.

 

The Dunce Award goes to...Louis Caldera, head of the White House Military Office.

 

In an amazingly stupid stunt, Mr. Calderas' office decided they NEEDED a picture of Air Force One flying near the Statue of Liberty. As the plane, followed by two fighter jets, flew a mere 1500 feet above Manhattan and Ground Zero, New Yorkers ran from their office buildings by the thousands. Scared and screaming, these shell shocked people (who still remember 9/11) thought their city was once again under attack from terrorists. Not withstanding the fact that it cost the tax payers $328,000, in an economy that is bleeding to death, but all for a PHOTO OP.  As if this economy could spare $328,000 for a picture.  Has Mr. Caldera not heard of Photo Shop?  Second graders could Photo Shop that picture in a matter of minutes.

Our much coveted Dummy Award, is bestowed upon those individuals possessing exemplary skills in moronic behavior.

 

And the winner of the Dummy Award is...Robert Gibbs, White House Press Secretary

 

"I don't know," is his most popular response when asked about anything concerning the White House. Pretty sad when your only job is to know what is going on in the White House, and report to the media and public. What do you know Mr. Gibbs? Do you know you won this award? Do you know where you work? If you know where you work, you should know a few things about your work place. Do you actually know anything about where you work, or what is going on, or do you sleep all day?

And our most prestigious honor, the Dodo Brain Award, this is reserved for those individuals who are a cut above the rest!

 

The Dodo Brain Award goes to....

 

President Barack Obama. (Points have been given for backing away from this ridiculous proposal, but sorry the damage is done.)

President Obama's plan to require private insurance carriers to reimburse the Department of Veterans Affairs for the treatment of troops injured in service has infuriated veterans groups who say the government is morally obligated to pay for service-related medical care. Even the thought of such is offensive. What would we say? "Hey, thanks a bunch for losing your leg and arm while protecting your country...see ya, that will be all, soldier... We said thanks what more do you want? You want your injuries paid for by the government? Oh no, we said thank you, that should be enough, after all you did volunteer to serve your country."

 

We hope you have enjoyed our awards ceremony, and be sure to come back for the next show. Luckily, we will have no trouble finding nominees as there are so many deserving individuals out there, which will require at least one ceremony per week. Thank you and Good Day!
