Idiot of the Day Award.

Idiot of the day

Yes, I know this may be hard to believe but my Idiot of the Day Award (which by the way, I don't do daily for some reason) is actually being awarded to a politician.

The above picture is of Spencer Bachus, he is:
1. A Congressman
2. A republican
3. From Alabama

I know just for those reasons alone he could hands down take the Idiot of the Day Award. However to sound like an infomercial, "But wait, there's more..."

Congressman Backass feels that comedian Bill Maher has committed an act of treason. I quote from Congressman Bakass below:

"I think it borders on treason," Bachus said. "In treason, one definition is to undermine the effort or national security of our country."

So what did Bill Maher do to be called out for treason? Did he plant a bomb? Did he give away secret military locations? Did he send funds to terrorists? No, he's done something much worse!! He made a couple of friggin jokes!

Here below are Mahar's treasonous comments in reference to the Army missing it's recruiting goal by 42 percent.

"More people joined the Michael Jackson fan club," Maher said. "We've done picked all the low-lying Lynndie England fruit, and now we need warm bodies."

O.K. now, I don't care if you agree with him or not but come on, that Jackson line is funny!

Hmm, I'm still trying to figure out the part where that quote is "undermining the effort or national security of our country". Guess I'll have to spend some time breaking the Bill Maher secret terrorist code hidden in that message.

Mr. Backass, quit trying to get your mug on television by worrying about what joke some comedian said. Why not tackle more important issues with your position in Congress. Little stupid things like education, war in Iraq, Social Security....

I know those issues aren't' really that important since The House and Congress have more important thing to worry about like comedians jokes, and whether Mark McGuire and Barry Bonds are doing steroids.

When I see hearings on steroids in baseball, I'm glad to see my tax dollars at work tackling those important issues.

As far as Mr. Maher's comments, agree with them or not. I "thought" that was what we were fighting for, so the people in Iraq would be like us and have the ability to have free speech without being accused of treason.
