Gold: Sen. Charles Grassley, R- Iowa, is the font of today’s tainted golden shower, as he counts on his constituents to suffer long and short term memory disorder. Surely they’ll
forget his dire prevarication fest concerning grandmas, plugs pulled, and the absolute horrors of "socialized medicine." Grassley, long a human fire plug in the path to health care reform, now solicits and graciously accepts credit for the change accomplished despite him!
Silver: Stephen Baldwin’s Christian soldiers. Oddly, knowing how much conservatives loathe the "celebrity spokesperson" phenomenon and the "worship of money," the "Body of Christ"
is on a bizarre political fund-raising campaign for the abrasive, outspoken Baldwin brother. The homeless? Not so much.
Bronze: The place: The Thai Spice restaurant in Adelaide Australia. The culprits: Countries and individuals separated by only a common language. The victim: Ian Jolly and his dog –
just trying to do his job, a victim of Aussie machismo and misunderstanding. Most dogs are gay, ebullient, enthusiastic, No cause for discrimination, mate!
