Liberal Rapture's last 2 "Rappy" awards - it was fun. Thanks for playing.
Woman of the year nominees:
Sarah Palin The five female scientists who individually received 2008 MacArthur Genius Fellowships Hillary Clinton General Ann E. Dunwoody Michelle Obama
The winner is: Hillary Clinton
She fought the entire media establishment, her own corrupt party, won every major primary except Illinois, received more votes than any other Democrat, and ended the year forming a remarkably powerful State Department. She enters 2009 on the verge of becoming the most powerful woman on earth.
Man of the Year nominees:
Joe the Plumber Todd Palin Michael Phelps John McCain Barack Obama
And the winner is: Michael Phelps He's person. He's a fish. Whatever he is - his accomplishment at the Olympics was stunning.
It's hard to fathom the depths of "journalism's" amoral ass licking in 2008 but try we must. They forced fed us Obama and there was a reason. Not at all sure what the reason was. ...3 cheers for Joe Scarborough - who leaves 2 other obamapod commentators mumbling excuses and, in essence, confirming their pathological proObama bias. Plus he mocks them gleefully in the end...it is important to remember that "journalists" like these should no longer be treated with anything but wary suspicion. We cannot and should not trust them. This is beyond doubt after 2008. They are selling something at all times - but rarely have the courage to tell us what they are selling...a war...a candidate...a bailout...
