GOLD STAR AWARDS, November 2009

It's the last day of the month, but I'm still doing a Gold Star Awards post this month! This one corresponds to the 1938 Baseball Hall of Fame Election, and as such, there is only one new inductee:

The Grover Cleveland "Pete" Alexander GOLD STAR #9: Republican Offenders

What a great site. All the right-wing hypocrites, law-breakers, thieves, adulterers, molesters, and maleficence-makers in one handy place! This sight documents all of the Republican Wrongdoing over the years, focusing on the highest ranking members and influential leaders within the party, and the more powerful lobbyists that they're associated with them.

My favorite part might just be his answer to the question, Why not a list of Democrat Offenders? Great stuff. Worth a read for that answer alone! LOL.

It has its share of fun, and takes a few cheap shots (usually preceded by a "cheap shot alert!") but overall it's fairly exhaustive in scope, with more than enough depth to be a useful reference when pointing out Right-Wing hypocrisy. (Granted, finding Right-Wing hypocrisy is about as difficult as putting on a hat, but some of these RW clowns out there still insist on links and references and this site has one for just about everyone who's anyone in the Republican Party.

GREAT STUFF!

For reference, previous inductees include:
Ty Cobb's GOLD STAR #1: Media Matters for America
Babe Ruth's GOLD STAR #2: The Skeptic's Dictionary
Honus Wagner's GOLD STAR #3: Snopes
Walter Johnson GOLD STAR #4: Armchair Subversive
Christy Mathewson GOLD STAR #5: Humanism by Joe
Cy Young's GOLD STAR #6: The American Prospect
Nap Lajoie's GOLD STAR #7: The Basic Laws of Human Stupidity
Tris Speaker's GOLD STAR #8: Rational Wiki

Next month will include 4 more Gold Stars, and 3 Stars of *ahem* lesser metal. Should be fun!
