Your 2009 Jackass of the Year Nominees…

Published by Press 7 for Celtic at 7:34 pm under Jackass of the Year

VOTING EXTENDED THROUGH CHRISTMAS!

I’ve sorted through your comments and your emails and now I’m pleased to present your nominees. I’m changing the rules a bit from last year, so as you look over this fine list of the best the Carolinas has to offer, keep this in mind:

-You may now vote for THREE people. THREE. Why? Because the outpouring of nominations for one particular jackass was so overwhelming, if I limited y’all to just one vote, he’d end up with about 95% and I wouldn’t be able to rank jackasses #2-5.  So vote for THREE people as your top jackasses.

-Vote by responding to this post or by emailing me at press7forceltic@carolinapoliticsonline.com.

-Voting ends on Christmas Day, and we’ll start counting down the Top 5 Jackassess on Christmas Day.

The nominees are…

Jackass of the Year Trophy

Mark Sanford- Now the odds on favorite to take home the gold. Last year’s winner, John Edwards, was also a philandering scumbag.

Tony Rand- N.C.’s ethically challenged out-going Senate Majority Leader.

John Spratt- Bane Windlow’s favorite congressman.

Hugh Holliman- the smartest man in the word. This N.C. House member was the driving force behind the liberty-killing smoking ban. Hugh is smarter than you are, so just shut up and do what he says, OK?

“Gosh” (aka. “Giggles”) and other Trolls- We know you’re brain-dead losers. Why must you remind us of it? Every day?

Kay Hagan- N.C.’s  freshman U.S. Senator voted for the porkulus bill that will indebt the grandkids you don’t even have yet.

Richard Burr- N.C.’s other U.S. Senator didn’t indebt your grandkids, but he’s not exactly the best steward of your tax dollars either. He’s a very weak incumbent up for re-election next year.

Lindsay Graham- Who needs Democrats when you’ve got Lindsay Graham-nesty?

McClatchy News- The Raleigh N&O and the Charlotte Observer. Once again showing us how to lose customers and not influence people.

Bev Perdue- N.C.s first-year governor has one of the lowest approval ratings in the country. But she’s still better than…

Mike Easley- Ex-Gov. Clownass is making more news out of office than he did while in it. Multiple state and federal investigations will do that.

Cal Cunningham- Will he be, as one of our commenters says, another John Edwards? Well, Edwards was Jackass of the Year, so Cal’s off to a good start.

UNC Head Basketball Coach Roy Williams- Because I think Logic Connection went to Dook or something.

and finally…

The Wake County School Status Quo Coalition- I received  a lot of individual nominations for people who all have two things in common: wanting to preserve a failed and harmful school system and showing us the definition of “sore loser” after getting their asses kicked last election. So I compiled them into this one big pile. Teacher’s Union? Clay Aiken? The Rev. Racist Piece-of-Shit (aka. William Barber)? All here. Oh yeah… and this lady and all her supporters. Watch this video and tell me that anyone who wanted her on the school board isn’t some sort of jackass.

    Logic:

    Without the ‘trolls’ (also known as ‘readers’) Carolina Politics Online would simply be another blog with no traffic. And leave you without any chance to display your moral indignation.

    Just sayin’.

    Logic:

    My apologies. My comment should have been directed at Celtic, the author of the article who used the word ‘trolls’ to identify those who make comments contrary to his point of view.
