rubenation's Top 3 "Scumbags of the Week"


Slow posting week as I was out of town for much of the time. Yet it was another banner week for the asshats who continue to do all they possibly can to undermine the nation. Here is this week's top 3:

1). Rep. Elton Gallegly (Congresscritter, R-CA). Normally, this moron is just another anonymous slimebag in the House Republican caucus, but this week he opened his mouth and revealed himself to be so much more. Seems that in the middle of a national energy emergency Rep. Gallegly is none too happy about a new House rule which would force him to give up his taxpayer funded Ford Expedition for a greener, more fuel efficient car like a Prius. "A Prius isn't made in the United States," Gallegly complained. Hey, Ive got an idea, Congressman: if you want to continue driving your gas hog and setting a poor example for your constituents, why don't you just pay for it yourself like working people have to do?

2). Tim "Conventional Wisdom Zombie” Russert (mainstream media hack). Russert was apparently responsible for banning Ariana Huffington from all NBC "News" programs after she criticized his lack of journalistic ethics in her new book. This is yet another example of how Russert has become THE most pompous windbag polluting the airwaves these days.

3). Reverends Hagee, Wright, et al (psychotic, egomaniacal religious "leaders"). How about if we all just agree that not only does religion have no place in a Presidential campaign, but all Presidential candidates should steer clear of "spiritual advisers" and seeking endorsements from reactionary bigots who hide behind their pulpits?
