Knucklehead Recognition Award: Hugo Chavez

“Our revolution seeks to help all people… Socialism, the other ghost that is probably wandering around this room, that’s the way to save the planet, Capitalism is the road to hell....let’s fight against Capitalism and make it obey us.” ~ Hugo Chavez

Hugo Chavez, in recognition of showing yourself for what you are, that being a Socialist, idiotic, dehumanizing, tyrannical, politically challenged quasi-statesman, I now pronounce you "Knucklehead".

Knucklehead Recognition Award: Michael Bloomberg

"The Revolutionary War buff charges the Bloomberg administration with tyranny for trying to seize his handmade flintlock rifle - a dead ringer for the weapon once used against the redcoats.

'This is the last legal gun that you can have without registration in New York," Littlejohn said. 'And yet Mayor Bloomberg is driven crazy by my flintlock gun - the one that won the American Revolution.'" ~Daily News | Brooklyn

I guess nobody has explained the whole "Constitution fad" to Bloomberg, nor have they explained the concept of personal freedom and the right to keep and bear arms.

Michael Bloomberg, in recognition of showing yourself for what you are, that being a gun-grabbing, Socialistic, namby-pamby, tyrannical despot, I pronounce you "Knucklehead".

Knucklehead Recognition Award: John McCain

"WASHINGTON – Sen. John McCain says he is still on the fence when it comes to voting for Supreme Court nominee Sonia Sotomayor." ~AP

My sincere apologies are extended to all of the other senators, Republican and Democrat, who voted for Sotomayor, but McCain stood out in the news for this event.

John McCain has a very important decision to make, vote for a racist woman who claims to be a "Puerto Rican Latina", regardless of the fact that she was born in New Jersey, or cling to his oath of office and the Constitution, and say "no" to Socialism. What a choice.

Sotomayor admitted that she didn't do as well at school as some of the other students at her college, but got ahead anyway because of affirmative action. She claims the Second Amendment isn't an individual right. She also ruled in favor of racism, denying non-minority firefighters their hard won promotions.

This award isn't going to her, though, because the only thing you can expect from a racist is more racism; this goes to McCain because he is going above and beyond what he pretends to believe in (equal justice, the Constitution, etc.).

Because he sees past ideology, and reaches for compromise; because he looks beyond the Constitution, and grabs for political correctness; because he shuns his oath of office, and seeks his next election, I bestow this Knucklehead Recognition Award upon him.

John McCain, in recognition of showing of showing yourself for what you are, that being a politically correct leftist, I pronounce you "knucklehead".

UPDATE: McCain has, at last, voted against Sotomayor, even though he said she was "...immensely qualified."

Knucklehead Recognition Award: Pope Benny XVI

I am now awarding the first of many Knucklehead Recognition Awards, given only to those certain, well-publicized individuals that have shown themselves to be a knucklehead enough to be recognized as such.

Today, I award Josef Ratszinger, alias "Pope Benedict XVI".


"Pope Benedict on Tuesday called for a 'world political authority' to manage the global economy and for more government regulation of national economies to pull the world out of the current crisis and avoid a repeat." ~Reuters

Pope Benedict XVI, in recognition of showing yourself for what you are, that being an ecumenical globalist, I pronounce you "knucklehead".
