This Week's Punks

There's a lot of Punks out there, folks, both Punks and Punkettes. It's time to recognize them for their outstanding Punkery this past week:

Rep. Tancredo (R-CO): For being an unapologetic racist asshole.

Republican members of the House of Representatives and Senate: For consistently voting down every budget amendment that would provide better security at our nation's ports and improving the communications capabilities of first responders.

Democratic Senators: For not immediately standing up when Senator Feingold called for the President to be censured.

Senator Santorum (R-PA): For being unable to wean himself off the lobbyist money tit.

The Bush Cabinet: For not committing suicide en masse out of shame for having led the country to this sorry pass.

The Entire Congress of the United States: For not immediately castrating and skinning alive the assholes who thought it would be a good idea and "all for the good of the country" to rip the Fourth Amendment out of the Constitution.

Any other Punks you want to name? Well, in the words of the Lord High Executioner in Gilbert & Sullivan's Mikado:

"There's tut-tut-tut, and Whatshisname, and also You-Know-Who;
But the task of filling up the blanks I'd rather leave to you
'Cause it really doesn't matter who you put upon the list
'Cause they'd none of them be missed, they'd none of them be missed."

I think it was John Cleese who said once that comedy was a means of fighting against inflexible behavior. And it's fun!

you forgot Pat Robertson, my hero: for never failing to instill hatred of those who don't follow his brand of religion into his flock. Amen

Put Fred Barnes on there and nail his name in place. Also add Ted Stevens because he should be on any list of anything bad and repulsive.
