Under the heading of, “Sometimes You Just Can’t Make This Shit Up”, along comes Eric Massa of my most recent home state of NY.  So, the guy is a fun-loving, sexually confused tickler…I’ve got no problem with that.  So, he had a gay old time in the Navy…honorable…at least according to his discharge, (of which I refer to his separation from service, not to any icky bodily fluid).  So, he’s caught in the middle of a public scandal or two…happens.  But, the reporting of this worthless, baby-fatted, waste of the human energy force has usurped precious airtime from the meatier stories of ‘kids in the control tower’, ‘the Vatican’s spin on sexual abuse’ and ‘Tiger’s return to golf’.

I suggest, that whomever the committee is that selects various poster children, broaden their criteria to allow for an expanded list to include, (and I’ve made a few suggestions for this year’s honorees):

• Shameless Self Promotion – Sarah Palin (runner-up – Rod Blagojevich)
• No!!!  – John Boehner (runners-up – almost any other elected Republican)
• Distorted Truth – Tie – Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck
• Worst Employee – This would have to be an electronic billboard with a slideshow featuring the face of nearly every elected official…perhaps the worst of the worst, like Massa and Rangel could get additional, random replays

Maybe, some day, someone will find me worthy enough to nominate me for Annoying Blogger.
