SMART Award Winner: Senator Jim Bunning (R)


Back when I ran a magical website called Digital-DJs.com, I had a rant column called The SMART Awards…

  • Retarded and
  • Tragic

I hate bunnies, LOL Cats, and the unemployed

After hearing this story, I felt the need to bring back this dubious honor.  How do you prevent emergency spending for unemployment benefits in a down economy? How do you stand on the floor of the Senate and lecture about what your rights are, when you show utter disregard for the rights (or at the very least – the needs) of the unemployed?  Newsflash, people depend on this money to eat!   Writing this post disgusts me.  I am just getting angrier when I try to explain, so check out CNN to get all of the sorted details.  Meanwhile, back to my rant… Bunning, an Hall of Fame pitcher, is acting like an Hall of Fame A-Hole.  It would be one thing to just give the Democrats a shot, but this guy has pissed off his own party. Here is guy that the Republicans won’t let run again.  I mean, how do get to be so hated that you are asked to leave?

This is a classic example of someone who confuses leadership with being God.
