Golden Hypocrite Award: Rep Pete Hoekstra R-Mich. Hoekstra is on the record as squarely and vehemently against the leaking of secret information. Quite abruptly, rather than moral umbrage, he sees nothing wrong with it now that he too is part of the In Crowd.
Silver: Pastor Ken Pigano of New Bethel Church in Louisville, KY has caused quite a stir with his self-described “Thinking outside of the box” for a special church service. Everyone gets to bring their guns to church! Doesn’t everyone have one
or more ? If not, there will be ample opportunity to acquire one. Stressing the harmless sport much like bowling, posters feature a blood spattered graphic. Watch, and see the carnival of fun – er, worship he has planned for the day.
Bronze: Gov.Tim Pawlenty R Minn. For Pawlenty, it’s assuredly more “Hip To Be Square”. Watch as he tries to put a new, with it vibe into his address to the Republican National Pow-wow Friday evening, by exhorting the party to get mad, and identify with Detroit rapper Eminem, citing the staged incident at the recent MTV Awards with Sacha Baron Cohen’s gay character, designer Bruno. Must
be seen, you almost – feel sorry for Pawlenty.
