All these politicians making stupid bills gave me an idea... An annual Dumbest Politician of the Year award. And I mean really sending them a certificate and plaque or trophy. I am still thinking of a name for the award... if you have any ideas, let me know.
A few rules:
1) Do not discuss nominations here. Discuss them in another thread. Only place nominations in this thread.
2) Post a reason for the nomination. Include a link to a news article or piece of legislation. Unverifible reasons will cause the nomination to be discarded and ignored.
3) Legislation passing is not a requirement for winning the award. Just writing the bill is reason enough.
4) Whatever the reason for the nomination, the reason must have taken place between Jan 1 2006 and Dec 31 2006.
5) You can nominate as many policritters as you like, just include a reason and a link to a news story or official bill web site.
6) Persons being nominated must be US politicians.
More to come later.
So let's hear what your favorite legicritter has been up to!!
Let the finger pointing begin!
