Hands down winner of any wanker of the day contest, any golden winger awarding, and any upside down inverted coital grasp. Ladies and gentlemen I present to you….
<drumroll>
with a Jr. Wanker award to The News Hour. For enabling this mans oral launches of fecal matter or as I call them OLOFM (any potential radio station investors out there?).
Let’s get this straight. The first thing I read this week was about a President’s Ex-Aide Arrested article in the NYT… This instantly prompted me to read this first, even though Kornblut shared the byline. Before filling my head with the typical diet of leftist propaganda from the filthiest of propagandists and the slimiest of slanderers. You know who you are…
I realized why CNN even slightly mentioned it in passing. Had I not been on my third sip of coffee by the time I could actually comprehend sensory input, I would have missed it completely. But alas, the flying spaghetti monster had it be so…
Anyway, I digress, I read up on Pat Toomey’s Co-Member of Club-For-Growth. Mr. David Salsafraz. The next thing I read was something TPM pointed out an old Wapo story. El Presidente Pat Toomey’s fellow Club for Growther, Grover Norquist.
So who does one of the most serious name in Peabody award winning free TV news programs like The News Hour have on to discuss “How the Government Can Pay for Katrina?”
You guessed it Pat Toomey… The guy whose Clubmate has just been removed from the “Executive Office of The President.“
If having this pukeface Lobbyist on television to discuss government waste isn’t so gastly terrible for ya. When he opened what I confused to be a mouth for what was certainly an anus (judging by the contents), the sole output was a vitrolic vomit.
Simply put, he doesn’t think the richest folks should pay a cent. An arguement BTW that Dennis Kucinnich put in the most basic terms I have ever heard before.
Pat Toomey also thinks that Medicare or Medicaid are “entire[ly]… ill concieved” and “entirely on the table.” That’s newspeak for “the poor people (most of which are black) can kiss whatever piss poor medical care they were getting goodbye.” He basically went on to desribe his willingness to cut just about any and all government spending except for the war on terra. Other things on the chop block according to Toomey, Prescription Drug Benefit (well if it goes back to what it was before they passed the law that isn’t so bad but Toomey wasn’t thinking this). Also on the list, FEMA (due to incompetence). I thought I heard him mumble something like “Fuck Rita.”
Off the chop block is of course,
The News Hour had this gentleman on to discuss what the federal government should do about Katrina. This is the guy who has beers with the man whose greatest wish has just come true. “My goal is to cut government in half in twenty-five years, to
get it down to the size where we can drown it in the bathtub.”
Let’s inform the American public about the intricacies of, and the governmental involvement in, this most herculaen of economic situations, with a guy who would rather just do away with ANY and ALL economic function of the government.

Good thing they had Stan Collender on for balance. Though I didn’t agree with everything he said either.
