Title: 2012: the William Rivers Pitt award (Alan Grayson)
Post by: franksolich on December 20, 2012, 03:27:21 PM
Congratulations to Alan Grayson, the winner of the 2012 "Willie," the William Rivers Pitt award for the DUmmie who’s done excellent work in enhancing the good name and reputation of Skins’s island!

The race for this award wasn't even close, the winner far outpacing his major competition, the big guy in Bellevue and poor stupid Beth.

Previous winners of the "Willie" were nadinbrzezinski in 2011, Bouncy Ball and William Pitt (tie) in 2010, and TomInTib in 2009, the first year of the award.

This newest winner of the "Willie" has graced the list of Top DUmmies only once before, in 2011, when he won the "Anne," the Anne Pritchett award for the DUmmie most likely to be seen as a winner by the primitives, but as a loser by decent and civilized people, an honor he shared with the bobbolink primitive the same year.

Other than that, he’s never even made the top twenty DUmmies of any year, and so he’s practically a new face here.

In 2008, newcomer Alan Grayson defeated his Republican opponent 52-48%, but in the Republican landslide of 2010, he was defeated by another Republican candidate 38-56%.  In the meantime, Florida was compelled to create additional congressional districts, and in the elections of this past November, Grayson defeated a Republican candidate 63-37%.

One of course hopes it’s another two-year flash-in-the-pan.  We’ll see.

Alan Grayson, 54 years old and an attorney, is a congressman from Florida; up until the recent elections, he’d been an ex-congressman from Florida, a status many of us wished he’d kept.  Married with five children, in 2010 he had a minimum net worth of $31,410,000; a multi-millionaire.

That vast fortune however never inhibited him from begging for campaign contributions from the primitives on Skins’s island during those two years he was out of office, 2011-2013.  At first, some willing primitive posted the fund-raising appeals, but since the then-ex-congressman was a registered member of democratic underground, one wondered why he didn’t post such appeals himself.

This year, he finally did get around to doing the job himself, although he wasn’t fooling anybody; after all, he’s too important to do such menial things.  It’s true that fund-raising appeals were made on Skins’s island under his screen-name, “Alan Grayson,” but probably some flunkie in his law offices had to write and post them.

A typical idiot ex-congressman appeal for campaign funds, from Skins’s island August 29, 2012:

Badge of Honor: Sarah Palin Says Grayson “Spews”

Fox News pays Sarah Palin $1 million a year to pretend to remain relevant. That works out to something like $50,000 per blather. Good work, if you get it.

To fulfill that onerous contractual obligation, Palin recently appeared on Greta Van Susteren’s propaganda-fest, “On the Record.” To be fair, Van Susteren does a great job of keeping a straight face, which can be quite challenging when Sarah Palin is your guest.

Failin’ Palin wanted to rev up that old right-wing indignation machine, so this is what Palin said to Van Susteren:

“Name one prominent Republican who even comes close to what the Alan Graysons, the Joe Bidens, the Harry Reids come up with and spew to the American public. I can’t think of one prominent Republican who talks the way that they talk.”

Frankly, we think that the term “spew” seems a bit harsh. It’s more like a gentle flow of genuineness, a steady stream of simple truth.

Now, as for Ms. Attila from Wasilla, it’s tempting to compare whatever she says to a babbling brook. But in her case, “spew” is a better description. As well as “excrete,” “disgorge,” “ooze,” “discharge,” “expel,” “erupt,” “gush,” and “spit up”. Because as Jon Stewart quickly pointed out on The Daily Show, regarding Palin’s interview, people who live in glass houses should not throw grenades.

After quoting Palin, Stewart asked, “Are the Republicans really in the moral high-ground position on the issue of divisive anger and hate vis-à-vis their opponents? . . . Are Republicans really that blind to the depths of their own vitriol?”

Stewart then ran clips of these Palin verbal cow-patties, as well as others:

10/4/08 - “Our opponent {Barack Obama} is someone who sees America as imperfect enough to pal around with terrorists.”

3/17/10 - “They are like a bunch of dead fish.”

8/1/11 - “{Arizona Governor} Jan Brewer has the cojones that our President does not have.”

6/15/12 - {In President Obama’s autobiography there is} “all that pot-smoking and that cocaine-snorting and what he ate: Fido.”

6/29/12 - “Nancy Pelosi is a dingbat.”

And then, of course, there was that time when Palin came to Orlando to campaign against Alan Grayson in 2010, and the sum and substance of her critique was to call Grayson a “jackwagon.”

You can add to the list of Alan Grayson’s accomplishments this very important one: Alan Grayson seems to drive Sarah Palin crazy. Or crazier. Even more crazy.

Please show your support for Alan Grayson, the Anti-Palin. Refudiate her!

A neat little trick there; the phrases in blue in the comment link to the rich man’s fund-raising site.

And he did it often.

There’s much in the archives of the DUmpster about the moonbat soon-to-be-again congressman, and it’s suggested one take a look-see to at least read the titles, to get an idea why this clown was a favorite of Cryano, the “Cyrano” primitive (also known as Oscar Wilde or the large-proboscised primitive).

Alan "Dick" Grayson, a worthy winner of the Willie.

"Oh, wow, we've got an actual CONGRESSPERSON here with us on DU!"

No, you don't, DUmmie! He's just scamming you for some money with his digital form letter that he sends out to all the prog blogs. Don't you get it when "Alan Grayson" posts some tough-sounding liberal spiel that includes an appeal for funds?  And then "Alan Grayson" never responds to your comments and questions downthread? No, you don't get that, do you? You poor saps!

I remember his posts. He NEVER engaged DU in any conversation. NEVER answered a question.
All he did was start a thread and ask for money.

Of course no DUmmy ever called him to the carpet. DUmmies are in full elitist worship mode. Its how liberals prefer to lead, the elite are never questioned, are above the law, and are always worshiped.

I've got to tell you, I have received many honors and awards in my life, and this is certainly one of them!
No, really! You're too kind."

By the way, you live way down there, in Florida.

Where's this clown's district?

The eastern coast, the western coast, the panhandle?

Where is it, roughly, from say, Jacksonville?

I can't believe he won, trying to sound like a leftist, it isn't fair that someone famous and rich beat out poor non-famous folk.

Yeah.

I so wanted poor stupid Beth, the second runner-up to get it.

In a pinch, I would've settled for the big guy, the runner-up.

It's good that he won.

He'll probably put it in the Congressional Record.

Jacksonville is in the north east coast of FL, his district is dist 9 and it is on the west coast of FL about midway from North to South.

Thanks.

I always use Jacksonville as the point of reference for Florida, to irk primitives who think Miami's all there is to Florida.

It looks as if the winner of the Willie's the flyarm primitive's congressman.

The Leona Helmsley of DUmmieland actually lives most of the time in her Streisandian digs up in New Jersey, but claims Florida as her residence because of lower taxes.

What was most memorable and most nauseating when Grayson posted at the DUmp, was the slobbering, snivelling, asskissery that the DUmmies displayed when his unpaid intern posted his begging letters. 

"So happy to have you here with us, Mr. Grayson!!  You should run for president!!!!  You're the best!!!!"

Me, I treat my congressman like a slightly stupid employee with performance problems.  Which is exactly what he is.

By the way folks, while it looks as if I'm moving through the top primitives at a pretty fast--and premature--clip, I've still got nine more top DUmmies and two more special awards to come yet.

(This is written after #07 Top DUmmie was announced.)

Like the Eveready bunny, this is going to go and go and go and go until the afternoon of New Year's Eve.
