Beet of the Week Canceled Due to Sequestration

User avatar
My fellow comrades:

It is with a heavy heart that I must hereby announce the cancellation of Pinkie's prestigious Beet of the Week Awards Program™ due to the effects of Sequestration.

It has not been suspended. It has not been delayed. It has not been postponed. It is not even on hiatus for retooling.

It has been CANCELED!

Nominations can no longer be accepted. Any nominations already under submission cannot and will not be considered. Nominations may not be resubmitted until further notice.

But worse than that, thousands will now be out of work. Yes, thousands! The thousands who made the bumper stickers. The thousands who printed up the nomination forms. And the one whose only job, his only means of support for himself and his dog and his mother, was filling out the nomination forms and submitting them to me. I speak, of course, of Superkommissar Maksim.

I can't possibly continue to employ him and all these others and still collect my annual six-figure salary with all its perks and benefits, to include my Cadillac known as the Pinkiemobile and chauffeur Pedro, whose countless friends and relations back in Mexico depend on the wages I pay him just to survive.

Comrades, this is the hardest decision I've ever had to make. Since the Sequestration took effect at midnight last Friday, I've worked harder and harder than I've ever worked at anything in my life to come up with a way to save BOTW, but no matter what or how I cut or cook or crunch, I find it is impossible, utterly impossible to do so without increased funding.

We simply cannot be expected to effectively and efficiently maintain this program and continue the consistently high level of service that members of the Cube collective have come to expect since the award's inception in 2008, at 2007 spending levels! We absolutely must have increased funding at 2013 levels to remain current and relevant, and also because it's, well, 2013!

But since the Republicans are only interested in giving more unnecessary tax breaks we can't afford to their wealthy fat cat friends and corporate jet owner pals, instead of funding a program that's improved and empowered the lives of so many with its unparalleled recognition of the most Progressive in Progressive thought and expression, we have no choice now but to cancel it altogether.

That means no more Beet of the Week award:

And no more bumper sticker:

As for the “Reserved for Beet of the Week” parking space in front of Party headquarters, we have just enough money left to replace it with a nice piece of granite boasting a bronze plaque that will memorialize the purloined right, the stolen entitlement, the looted national treasure that was once Beet of the Week.

Commissarka Pinkie is a regular contributor to The People's Cube, and is renowned and admired by the masses for her dedication to raising awareness of how much she cares. When she isn't busy making an issue out of everything or beating unruly proles with her shovel, she enjoys spending other people's money, occupying other people's property, and playing victim and moral authority cards.

User avatar
Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! Those blasted Republicans ruin everything! How will the Proletariat triumph over the oppression of Capitalism without the necessary encouragement of the Beet of the Week? Tell me!

User avatar
Gee, all of that because ten dollars was cut from the millions of dollars in the funding increase of millions for a BOTW budget of billions that is already more than most countries spend on national defense.

You commies.

User avatar
Oh Commissarka!

This must be so hard for you! Poor thing.

This is just fine news, coinciding with when I started posting posts without videos, as you "recommended."

Is this "fair™" when every equal one deserves a Beet of the Week?

I don't think so.

Word will get out that you are just manipulating us!

One of my greatest dreams was getting the coveted "Beet of the Week."

Now, I am hopeless! Thanks alot GW Bush! Hope you're happy!

Dear Pinkie - don't worry! Organizing for Action is on the case! I have just received this email from OFA at BarackObama.com and it basically restates your message. And even though they don't mention BOTW by name, I'm sure it's among the programs that they are fighting for on your behalf!

Comrade Red Square--

Thanks to Republican obstructionism in Congress, the nation was forced into the sequester last Friday -- a series of automatic and destructive budgets cuts that you and your neighbors are just beginning to feel.

In the face of these devastating cuts, House Speaker John Boehner went on TV and said, "I don't know whether it's going to hurt the economy or not ... I don't think anyone quite understands how the sequester is really going to work."

Really? We're not talking about some abstract numbers on a piece of paper -- this is real.

The sequester will cut 10,000 teaching jobs, 70,000 spots for preschoolers in Head Start, $43 million for food programs for seniors, $35 million for local fire departments, and access to nutrition assistance for over half a million women and their families.

And the reason congressional Republicans let these cuts go into effect is because they simply wouldn't support closing tax loopholes for millionaires and billionaires -- for things like yachts and corporate jets. I wish I were kidding.

More than 340,000 OFA supporters have added their names to support President Obama's balanced plan and call on congressional Republicans to take action to stop the sequester budget cuts right now.

Add your name, Comrade Red Square, and join them:

Friend --

Today, because congressional Republicans refused to act, devastating budget cuts known as the sequester are going into effect.

They're self-inflicted wounds, and they didn't have to happen.

Congress can stop all of this right away -- and pursue a balanced approach to deficit reduction.

That's what the vast majority of Americans want, and yesterday, more than 100,000 Americans called on Congress to be reasonable about the budget.

Friend --

Brace yourself.

If congressional Republicans don't act by tomorrow, we're going to be hit by a series of devastating, automatic budget cuts called the sequester.

It's a sledgehammer to the budget, our economy, and millions of Americans across the country -- and the most frustrating part? It doesn't have to happen.

The majority of Americans support President Obama's balanced approach to deficit reduction -- add your name if you do, too.

So far, congressional Republicans are refusing to compromise -- all because they don't want to close tax loopholes for millionaires, billionaires, vacation homes, and corporate jets. Seriously.

This has very real consequences.

On the chopping block are 10,000 teaching jobs, more than 70,000 kids' spots in Head Start, $35 million for local fire departments, $43 million to make sure seniors don't go hungry, and access to nutrition assistance for 600,000 women and their families. That's just a few of the things we'll lose.

President Obama has put forth a balanced deficit reduction plan with smart spending cuts that protect the critical investments needed to strengthen middle-class families and our economy.

We need to send a strong signal about where Americans stand on this issue.

Add your name today:

The light is gone from my eyes, for I was ever hopeful to add the prestigious and coveted Beet of the Week to my Silver Shovel and four Heroes of Cubist Labor with bronze palm tree device. At least the Cube budget still allows $250,000,000 in foreign aid for the struggling Onion.
My heart goes out to the millions of handicapped minority kittens who will never grow up to see a Beet of the Week, and most of all my heart goes out to myself. My 75 footish likeness outside of my humble 200 room beachfront dacha will be draped in black until this blight of a sequester ends.

I suppose it goes without saying that the tours of the famous "Pink House" Beet Of The Week world headquarters are on the chopping block as well.

I must denounce all of you for feeling down that you haven't won the beet of the week or even wanting to compete for the award! Comrades, competition is what the rethuglikkkans want you to be lured into! You must resist! If one receives the award, we should all receive the award, so I must denounce the award giver for not awarding the award to all of us deserving/undeserving the award.
Report to the train station with your shovel! First one there gets denounced again so go no faster nor slower than the other comrades!

We were counting on increased funding this year so we could divert more resources to raising public awareness of Beet of the Week, and especially youth outreach by turning the smiling, happy little beet into a full blown cartoon character.

We would have named him something totally unoriginal and painfully obvious like Billy Beet, then launched a whole line of t-shirts, bedding, plush toys, and lunch boxes featuring his adorable image. (Yeah, I know because of the federal free lunch program, kids don't necessarily carry lunch boxes anymore, but with increased funding to 2013 levels, we would've had money to make those lunch boxes anyway, and kids would've wanted them no matter what because it would've been cool to have one.)

With increased funding, we could've hired someone to dress up in a giant beet costume and raise further awareness of Beet of the Week through personal appearances at parties, fundraisers, rallies, protests, marches, sit-ins, lie-ins, die-ins, pee-ins, etc.

And as a beloved children's cartoon character, our Democrat allies in Congress could've trotted him out on the steps of Capitol Hill and proclaimed to all that Republicans wanted to see Billy Beet fired, killed, chopped up and cooked into borscht just so they could give more tax breaks to millionaires, billionaires, corporate jet owners and vacation home owners. (Why do you think the Obamas always rent their vacation homes? To avoid receiving a tax break they don't need! Now that's what I call caring!)

With Billy Beet, so many more hearts would've been in danger of breaking. So many more children would've cried and bawled and blubbered and pleaded with their parents to write or call their Congressional representatives to save Billy Beet and ultimately Beet of the Week!

Oh, how it grieves me to think of all the people who could've received Beet of the Week and now, never will! People who could've discovered the cure for cancer…who could've come up with a way to stop global warming…save the polar bears…stop world hunger…end homelessness…poverty…someone who might have saved the world, had they only been inspired and motivated by the award of Pinkie's prestigious Beet of the Week! Now, none of that will come to pass! For without the prospect of something glorious in it for you, what's the point of even getting out of bed in the afternoon and trying to do anything at all? What's the use of even caring if there's no way to call attention to how much you care? Why bother, if no one notices?

Does anyone care at all anymore?

Anyone?

Pinkie, for unrivaled demagoguery in the service of corrupt commie crap, for marching lockstep with your leader into the churning sea of debt and oblivion, and for using what began as a tiny insignificant award program and using it to amass a personal fortune of billions and immense political power, to then cynically use the program you've been entrusted with as a hostage in a sick Machaevellian political power play, I hearby award you the prestigious

Commie of the Week

Unlike the BOTW award the Commie of the Week award does't cost the nation billions of dollars to administer. To recieve your award, commie, just send ten dollars for postage and handling to Halliburton Awards Group, inc. and within ten to thirty business days you will recieve your commie award suitable for framing.

But then again, there's nothing wrong with "unrivaled demagoguery in the service of corrupt commie crap, marching lockstep with your leader into the churning sea of debt and oblivion, and using what began as a tiny insignificant award program and using it to amass a personal fortune of billions and immense political power".

Those lamenting losing the chance to ever win a BOTW, I must remind you that just as Hugo Chavez's billions belong to the people of Venezuela all of my BOTW awards belong to the people of the Cube. I am but just the caretaker. Now BACK the F*CK UP!

On a brighter note at lest the Whitehouse calligraphers still have their jobs.

We should create "Betty Beet" so that she and her significant other, say, "Rebekah Radish" or "Sandra Squash" or some such thing could be used as poster children to illustrate ongoing oppression. Think of the opportunities: we not only get to demonstrate once again how Republicans hate Children, but also never miss a chance to wage war on women and give vent to their raging homophobia.

Well! If caring about the downtrodden makes me a Commie, then I'm proud to be a Commie! If raising awareness of how much I care makes me a Commie, then I'm proud to be a Commie! If making an issue out of everything in the name of calling attention to how much I care about the downtrodden makes me a Commie, then I'm proud to be a Commie! If instituting a program that brings just a little ray of sunshine into the wretched, miserable, humdrum lives of the masses and makes just one person feel good about themselves--even if that one person happens to be me--makes me a Commie, THEN I'M PROUD TO BE A COMMIE!

But pay money for your stupid, smelly award when you're already awash in money made from the blood and sweat of the very masses who I fight for day after day with my little grass roots initiative that was BOTW? How dare you!

I don't pay for anything, buster, especially for something I'm entitled to. That's what the government is for.

You know where you can stick your dumb award, and if that's too painful for you, then grease it with some of that oil you stole.

Blogunov, that's a great idea! Betty Beet and Rebekah Radish could've been someone's two mommies. Sandra Squash needs free birth control and can't possibly be expected to buy it cheap at Wal-Mart because their workers aren't unionized.

I'd give you Beet of the Week for this idea, except...well...no more funding!

Sgt. NeoTroll,

You showed how sequestration has led to such a shortage of uniforms that you're forced to force NumBeets to perform rifle-drills in their underwear, but you're so "old school," you didn't show how it's affected the WICs (who used to be called WAVES, a class of enlistment that served as a great recruitment tool for the Navy to enlist young men to become swabbies with dreams of riding the waves), so I've rummaged through YOUR locker to find photograhic evidence of the adverse effect of sequestration on rifle-drill training of WICs:

Eager to offset the adverse effects of sequetration on the military, our Commander-in-Chief has selflessly demoted himself to fill the gap created by the sequestration-caused shortage of drill sergeants since Sgt.

Here are the culprits, Pinkie. Yes, I, Pamalinsky, an admitted YouTube addict, found them! See! I am good for something!

They are unabashedly taking your award away. A shameful abscondification!

I found them on the internet, and we all know the internet shows the truth in all things.



P.S. It's best to not quibble with silly things like actual spellings. Heh, heh, beat/beet. Relax about this sort of thing. You'll feel much better!
