Punk of the Week
Yes!
It's time for the accolade of Loud and Egregious Punkery, the Golden Buttock! And this week the pristine Golden Buttock, modeled after the fundament of a cocktail waitress in Piscataway, New Jersey, is proudly awarded to ......
The New York Times.
Yes, the Gray Lady itself, which proudly touts itself as "all the news that's fit to print," is the best and most obvious recipient for this week's award. You see, reporters for the Times found out that, three years ago, the President of the United States broke Federal law and violated his oath to "support, protect and defend" the Constitution of our nation.
So, what did these members of the Fourth Estate do? Did they announce to all the world and the citizens of the United States that this Administration had betrayed them?
No.
They sat on the story.
For a year.
At the request - of the White House.
This criminal gang in the White House must be stopped, since the President has stated that he has authorized spying on Americans and will do it again. This is the Imperial Presidency with a vengeance, and Richard Nixon himself would stand aghast at this vast overreach of Presidential authority.
And for NOT doing its duty, the New York Times gets the Punk of the Week Award.
