rubenation's Top 3 "Scumbags of the Week"


Paying homage to Keith Olbermann's "Worst Persons in the World," this will be a weekly feature calling out those individuals who in my judgement caused the most damage to the republic during the past seven days. Admittedly, Chimpy could be on this list EVERY week, but unless he does something beyond the pale (for him) destructive, I will instead focus on his most capable enablers.

Once again, this is not a partisan rant, in fact two of my three nominees this week are Democrats. So here they are, the "Scumbags of the Week":

1). Ben Bernanke (Federal Reserve Chairman): for continuing his ongoing attempt to save the asses of greedy Wall Street speculators by turning on the printing presses and tanking the dollar, thereby driving the price of oil and other commodities even further into the stratosphere and destroying the meager savings of the average American. Can you say, "Weimar America?"

2). Geraldine Ferraro (racist Hillary supporter): for injecting even more racial vitriol into a rapidly deteriorating Democratic primary campaign at a time when the nation desperately needs to move past such garbage and get serious about trying to find a way out of the ever worsening mess we are in. More proof that Hillary and her supporters care more about winning than what is good for either America OR the Democratic Party.

3). Eliot Spitzer (about to be former NY governor and now world famous john): Quite a week when this hypocritical asshole only ends up third on the list. Some progressives are whining that he was set up. Repeat after me: they can't set you up if you don't do the crime.

Until next week, peace out!
