Shut Up Fool! Awards-First Day Of Spring Edition

Ahh, today is the first day of spring. The weather is warming up, we have NCAA men's and women's tournament games all over the tube, people got their drink on for St. Patrick's Day and we have our first signs that the stock market is starting to respond to the economic stimulus package.

But as Mr. T admonished us, fools are everywhere. And let's see what fools we get to not pity this week with our illustrious award.

It was a target rich environment for fools this week. I could have chosen the GOP, Glenn Beck, Laura Ingraham, or Jimi Izrael just for starters, but once again it's no contest.

It's our former resident in thief George W. Bush.

He ventured north of the border to Calgary for a 'speech' that 1,500 fools paid C$400 a plate to hear that was closed to the press and 100 Calgarians protested. Gee I wonder why?

And when talking about the book he's going to have ghostwritten (and no it isn't My Pet Goat, the sequel) about the 12 toughest decisions of his mispresidency, he stated.

“I’m going to put people in my place, so when the history of this administration is written at least there’s an authoritarian voice saying exactly what happened,”

Aren't you glad we now have a president that not only was overwhelmingly ELECTED, but is intelligent and has excellent command of the English language?

George W. Bush, shut up fool!
