Sure, it was an epic year for public corruption on a large scale, but also on stupid and small scales. For one thing, George Santos existed. But the expelled congressman’s resume padding and (alleged) fraud was given a run for its money by Sen. Robert Menendez’s (D-NJ) insatiable appetite for (allegedly) accepting bribes in the form of gold bars, or Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas’ gluttonous penchant for luxury yachts and vacations with billionaires.
It’s almost painful to have to make some of these choices. Like the judiciary category? can we please have a 3-way tie between Clarence, Alito, and Cannon?
And how all the contenders must be breathing a sigh of relief that George Santos was around this year to take the spotlight off of everyone else’s wrongdoings! But I really think this year’s big title should also be a tie between Clarence and George. Both of them with ongoing sagas where the grift just keeps on grifting.
I don’t think it is entirely fair. Some people only make life-changing mistakes every few weeks, and others who screw up constantly build up a little immunity. If MTG is awful every second of the year, should she be more rewarded than a senator who shows up with gold bars only now and then? Maybe next year we will have AI to help with these difficult decisions.
For some reason the pie charts showing accumulated votes double the number of categories. If there are four choices for each award, the pie chart will show eight categories.
So, for example, votes for Clarence Thomas will be split into two slices of the pie chart.
Ravache. For most effective cut-down, you gotta get the details right. (I remember someone once debating me about the importance of the construction of words in an atheism online debate. I let him go on for a while about entomology this and entomology that before finally asking why he was bringing the study of insects into it.)
Normally I don’t care what couples do in their bedroom. But I want MORE information about the Ziegler’s and I want this information ALL out in the public!! I want to expose their hypocrisy and for them to be personally and politically destroyed by this!! For all the pain that they have caused others, karmic payback is a bitch!!
I had to go with Alito in the judges section for his single handed assault on every female in the country. Clarence is Clarence and 25 years of selling your vote takes some beating though.
