Comrades (especially those of you who live in the People's State of Pennsylvania),

I wanted to bring to your attention, especially Comrades Whoopie and Laika, and anyone else from Pennsylvania, the state where all progressives are free to wear their politics on their sleeves that there is a very special contest going on in Pennsylvania.

But I can't help but wonder if they got this idea from another post from last year at the Cube "The People's Cube Non-Beauty Contest."

Oh, this is exciting, isn't it? Oh, and feel free to email your suggestions to the email address in the announcement above. Surely, they will appreciate your suggestions.

Here is a Link to the original website:

Leninka, if the Frau lived in PA I would certainly nominate her. I believe we can all agree that her avatar has changed the face of the Progressive Movement.

And it's about high time that the Movement™ return the favor.

I nominate Laika the Space Dog, Friend of People!

A monument to Laika in Pennsylvania is long overdue!

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm......................

That's some delicious slab of canine cuisine right there, Comrade Red Square! Now if only it was drizzled with chocolate...



If only...



Speaking of chocolate, here's my nominee:

User avatar
OOH! All of these contestants are so worthy!

Laika has been orbiting space for nearly 53 years. That's hard to beat.

Comrade Fraulein is a most dedicated poster here at the Cube, pouring out one humorous comment after another.

And Comrade Soros donated 1 MILLION DOLLARS TO NPR so as to spread the progressive message to all of those proles who don't have cable TV to watch CNN and MSNBC.

And Dear Leader is the very first truly, dedicated progressive president, well, Dear Leader Bubba tried, but, hey, he did have to hold on to power, so I can understand why he caved.

This is a very good start, indeed!

User avatar
What a great opportunity to redistribute some long overdue recognition, awards, promotion, glorious glory, and oodles of free stuff to Yours Progressively.

That's right. I nominate myself. Because no one cares as much I do. Besides--

I'M ENTITLED, DAMMIT!!!

User avatar
Pinkie - I would have nominated you but I thought the contest is limited to Pennsylvania residents only. However, if you ever voted in Pennsylvania concurrently with voting in Florida and/or any other states, you must be automatically eligible for the Progressive of the Year Award.

It wouldn't be surprising that someone who cares more than an average person would also vote more than an average person. If it isn't in the law yet, it should be! The number of votes should probably equal the number of issue bracelets on your arms and issue ribbons on your chest.

User avatar
It's not fair I have to be a Pennsylvania resident. This contest discriminates against people who don't reside in PA. Therefore, I insist on being considered. Anyone in PA who doesn't like it can always move to another state.

This is supposed to be the season of giving and hope and little baby Jesus in a cradle and all that stuff, and you would take this away from me like some Republican?

Even if they had a Progressive of the Year Award in Florida, Charlie Crist would be an automatic shoo-in. So I have to claim residency in a state where I have a better chance of winning.

It's The Party Way.

User avatar
I think somebody needs a Midol I hereby nominate Commissarka Pinkie for the general happiness and peace of the collective.

User avatar
As Commissar of Time and Space, (and not wanting a whack from Pinkie's shovel) I find that Pennsylvania is also Florida. Without going into the manipulation of time, space, physics and reality (hey, somebody pass that acid laced vodka!) let it suffice to say that Pinkie is eligible and entitled to run in this contest.

User avatar
Comrade Pinkie,

I merely said: "especially those living in Pennsylvania." Of course you can be included as a contestant.

In the meantime, I'm nominating "Creepie Barbie" who has a hidden video camera in her necklace to record the doings of all little girls.

And for those of you who live in Rio Linda, here is a video of Big Brother Barbie:

What a great contest! I almost missed this article as I have been so busy donating my free time at the local homeless shelter on top of all volunteer work at the orphanage that I haven't had much time to read lately. I like to post more on who should be put in for a nomination but little Timmy the poor orphan with a gimp leg, well I promised that I'd go play catch with him and teach him how to throw a baseball so off I go again with no thought of my own self or any personal gain or special recognition because it's "all for the children".

Now if that doesn't get my greedy butt nominated as the top prog around here I don't what else will.

Commodore.... Go grab your shovel and scoop up your sales pitch.

Raum Emmanual Goldstein
Naturally, the Dear Leader (AP&PBUH) should receive the award...no question.

However, given that He is gracious and even humble (almost to a fault -- if you ask me, but to a fault, of course, because He is without fault...but I digress) He will likely decline this award as he is not a resident of the Keystone Kops Police State (at least there presently exists no evidence that conclusively proves such an outrageous charge and we'll suppress it in court if it does -- unless it suits the Dear Leader (AP&PBUH) to do otherwise).

However, should he not chose to decline (since he DOES reside at 1600 PENNSYLVANIA avenue, after all), I wish to nominate the distinguished Minister King Samir Shabazz who was caught on amateur video brandishing a billy club at a polling stations intimidating voters valiently engaged in the honorable practice of voter "education" outside a Philadelphia polling station during the 2008 elections. His bravery was on par with Obamugabe's ZANU-PF in the Glorious People's State of Zimbabwe and was a step in the right direction towards promoting the United States to the elevated status of "Third-World Banana Republic" after generations of exploitation of this underated and overly exploited strata of nation-states. I say, it is about time!

blackpanther4_s640x550.jpg

It is not enough that the Obama justice department dropped the outragious and racially motivated charges of voter intimidation against S. Shabazz. He must be rewarded with the highest possible honors that can be bestowed upon a resident of the Keystone Kops Police State.

While the fact that this brave stand occured over two years ago, Minister King Samir Shabazz has continued elevating race relations and the advancement of party-approved "liberty" even year with such notable public quotes as: "Want freedom? Kill some Crackers!"

Why Comrade the thought of my being nominated by another Comrade for this prestigious honor had never even crossed my mind. You've miss-read my post, but now that you've mentioned it you've put me in a pretty tough spot if someone actually does nominate me. Of course I would have to accept then because as a true prog I wouldn't want to offend that comrade by turning it down, that's just how unselfish and caring I am about others feelings.

By the way I've noticed that your gas mask is getting a little long in the tooth, how about dropping by my H.Q and getting fitted with a new one free of charge? Think nothing of it, my pleasure to always offer a hand to those less fortunate then myself.

Well I just got back from helping a little old lady cross the street and thought I check in on the doings here. I see no new 'live' nominees have been put forth. Oh I'm sure that will change as there are many worthy ones out there who's names haven't been submitted.

I must say Leninka besides looking as lovely as ever, this really is a great idea. Oh, what do we have here why its genuine Russian Chocolate! Humm, Since I'm on a diet in support of all those who go hungry at night due to reichwing kapitalisss piggery just to show my solidarity to the down-trodden masses. I think I'll just nominate it to you my fair progressive maiden. No need for thanks or any sort of favor in return, Enjoy!

How very safety- conscious you are for my benefit ! The lenses have been removed as to eliminate any possible dangers from broken glass and it has been cleverly fitted with only a single respirator cartridge, which of course means I will have an extra for emergencies. In addition, the cartridge port on the right side was probably left unplugged to made breathing easier .
Indeed Commodore, you have graciously offered me this mask for my own benefit, but alas, I am not worthy to nominate you for your omni-present progdomineousness
due to the unfortunate circumstance that I, Krasnodar, live in Arizona, which Dear Leader has condemned because of its backward views towards his agenda. I wouldn't dream of sullying your achievements.

Comrade,

I appreciate your concern about sullying my achievements by not nominating me for this award. Do not feel guilty about the hours and hours of work that went into making you a one of kind mask and the hours of painstaking details that went into perfecting the design.
Just knowing that I was to helping a fellow Comrade out with no thought of any recompense toward my humble little self is more than enough for me to be happy with. Now that I know that I can count on you to stab me in the back to be happy with my little offer, I must turn my attention to other matters.

Groucho Marxist!

Good to see you here. I've noticed that your beard well could use a little extra care. Ohhh, what do we have here? Why its..........

Image
Hope that you use it wisely as you spiff up your good looks even more. Now its off to the local blood bank to make my weekly donation.

User avatar
Thank you Commodore Snoogie Woogums for the kind gift of beard gloss. I will be sure to use it in the coming weeks. I certainly want to repay you in some small way for your oh so thoughtful gift. Perhaps you could meet me for coffee after I have lunch with Vladimir_Scratchanitch to personally express my gratitude for his use of my visage™ on the New Government Issued MasterCard™.

If you need any assistance with your bi-weekly delivery of your donations to the homeless shelters, let me know. I'm certain that Vladimir_Scratchanitch will be able to assist you.

Comrade Snoogie Woogums,

Thank you for that chocolate. It looks delicious. I will be sure to hoard it and gobble it up all myselfdivide it up into more than 50 equal pieces and share it with the collective.

You know, fellow comrades, since there are so many deserving progressives who equally deserve this award, perhaps we can think of different categories. In the "Backstabbing & Betrayal" category I nominate Michael Moore who turned viciously on Dear Leader during his post election appearance on Larry King, and hardly anyone noticed. (to save space, I didn't bring in the video, but you can click on the link below). And the back stabbing and betrayal didn't end with this segment. He went further to claim that Dear Leader had abandoned younger voters, a little later on.

Keep in mind that Michael Moore has dined with Dear Leader at the White House at least 8 times. I wouldn't blame Dear Leader if he didn't extend another invitation.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gzVHhVDtjhM

Comrade Goldstein's suggestion of those two Black Panthers with their billy clubs could be in the "Voter Intimidation" category.

Pinkie, your entitlement may well win out over all other merits. After all, being entitled is the crux of our glorious system, and nothing should win out over that.

User avatar
And, of course, we can have the "Most Favored Dead Progressive" category, too, Comrade Lumberjack. In this category, one of the most under appreciated progressives is one we call here in Texas "Landslide Lyndon" for properly stealing his election to the senate, and then going on to create a "Great Society." The term "welfare queen" would not exist without Dear Leader Lyndon Johnson.

User avatar
If Mary Vollero could win the 2010 Favorite Progressive award for her pictures of shovels surely Pinkie should win the 2011 Favorite Progressive award for using her shovel on pretentious photographers.

Commodore Snoogie -

Your picture has brought back memories. Who knew Friedrich Engels, co-founder of communism, modeled his looks on the picture he found on the Beard Care Gloss tin can?

This inspired me to go even further -

I love that beard gloss for communists. Beards and communism have always gone together and now they are both glorified together with a can of grease.

I am also nominating the Cube for being one of Google's top progressive porn websites.

I also nominate a Senator who is, in essence, a political in-law of Pennsylvanians. Who? Senator John Kerry because he got his money by marrying the ultra-rich Teressa Hines, widow of former Republican Senator John Hines of Pennsylvania. We know he limits himself to consumption of Environmentally Friendly Sources of Nutrution:
. Image .


Without her money, he'd be limited to windsurfing instead of yaghting. And his Progressive Pedigree is flawless. He managed to have Republican Weath redistributed from Pennysylvania to himself. What an accomplishment. This enables him to purchase Carbon Credits at the N.Y. Office of Al Gore's LLP in Britain: . Image .



Plus he had the political wisdom and astutness to nominate John Edwards as his running mate-- a man who Progressed from Ambulance Chasing to Skirt Chasing and Buck-Passing.

Comrades,

I offer the name Commodore Snoogie Woogums for an award we can self generate with no "in state" requirements which illegals no longer use for schools.

She is warm, friendly, and considerate, to catch you off guard.

As soon as you turn your back to help, you get a very sharp pain between your ribs.

She smiles and says "Watch you back, no one else will."

Actions on the highest double standard possible.

User avatar
My, I don't know where to begin! Such praise from my most equal Comrades and peer group for my humble little gifts and offerings. Offerings given in the spirit of true comradeship, with just no thought on my part of expecting anything in return, just imagine my pure joy to see the expression of thanks given after all!!!!!

Oh, I also see that the nominations have been closed and a poll has already been started for the votes for the most popular and most bestiest prog of the year!
Just a teensy weensy little complaint, I hope Pinkie and the rest of you don't mind. But I do have to mention that the poll does seem to have excluded an “other” category for write-in candidates, I'm sure it's just a little Party clerical error that will soon be corrected.

Speaking of write-ins, if a Comrade does feel the need to vote for a write-in candidate after this ‘oopsie' has been fixed, please ensure that you spell the Comrades name correctly so as not to have that vote discounted. For example this reminds me that on a few occasions in the past my name was misspelled a few times by various Comrades. Just an ever so friendly reminder its “Snoogie Woogums” not “Snookie Woogums”, that's Snoogie with a “G” not a “K” oh, I know it's just a silly minor little thing and I always get a chuckle when it happens. But felt that I needed to point that out for awhile now, and gosh what a good thread to do it on since I've noticed this ever so innocent little omission on the voting poll.

A little different subject, my super rush shipment of number 2 pencils has just arrived at the People's Navy Stationary store!!!!!!!. I had ordered them to support the poor tykes at the orphanage so that they could do their schoolwork. You should have seen their little cherubic faces as I handed them out.


Image
Though it seems that I've way over ordered and now have plenty of extra pencils left. Feel free to drop by the store and help yourself to one as a ‘freebie' to use as you please.

Your Friendly Commodore

Snoogie (with a “G”) as in Gee he's swell.

Snoogie...

After reading your post this morning, I have come to the conclusion that a simple shovel is not quite adequate for the maintenance of your most-worthy comments on this thread !

Comrades, here is something we have completely overlooked. Being a trademark of all progressives, it is something we have all come to know and love, the progressive finger pointing at us, dominating us, warning us, threatening us, goading us, and excoriating us, and sticking it to us. It is what comes before the purges, before all crippling rules and regulations, before the higher taxes, and big brother Google monitoring for rubber breasts. It is the wagging, pointing, lovable, cute and bony index finger at the end of every famous progressive's hand. So I nominate the progressive index finger as the progressive of the year.

Put the three of them together and you start to get the picture of one of our favorite progressives of all times. And that would be . . . wait, I haven't found a good picture yet.

In the Backstabbing & Betrayal category we can add the name of Rep. Anthony Weiner, D-N.Y. Rep. Weiner who said this about Dear Leader: "I think a lot of people are wondering why President Obama doesn't fight for what he believes in a lot more," said Rep. Anthony Weiner, D-N.Y. "It seems like it goes from zero to fold in pretty fast time." Everyone is piling on. This can not be good for Dear Leader's self confidence.

I know there are others, I just can't think of them, right now.

Comrade Leninka:
For the Congeniality Award, I would like to nominate John Patrick Murtha, sadly it will be Posthmously ..... The Surgeon who did us a favor performed the botched gall bladder surgery will be there to accpet the award in John's stead if given.

What's up with the vote on this thread so far ?

It's feeling like an election in Chicago or Nevada.

Pinkie's Shovel had a considerable lead as of yesterday......now it's only one vote away from a tie with its yielder, Pinkie. Statistically, I'm suspicious of just how and by whom these votes are being tallied at Party Central's Josef Stalin Election Results Facility. Did some official " find" a truck full of ballots , which incredibly are all votes for Pinkie ?

I demand an inquiry and show trial !

User avatar
Comrade Krasnodor,

This election is going to drag out a long time, so pull up a chair and sit on the floor, admission is free, just pay at the door.

Comrade Proletariat,

We'll just shove Comrade Murtha's decaying stinky progressive body into the Dead Progressive category along with Comrade Che. One thing I believe Comrade Murtha had going for him, especially, was his ability to suck up OPM like no other congressional representative. He never really received a proper nickname while living.

User avatar
Czar Czar,

I see our public education system is still churning out a “quality” product.

Krasnodar,

My how thoughtful! I was wondering about the safety of those that would have to lift all those heavy boxes of write-in votes before they've been counted and you've already solved the problem. Sure wouldn't want anyone to get a back injury and as you know safety with me is always job one, but how could you not?

Your vast experience when you were assigned by the party to work on the People's Navy totally safe nuclear reactor propulsion plants with absolutely no ill effects afterwards, just proves my commitment to safety and the caring of the workers on that one.

Leninka,

Schoomizing, au contraire my progressive beauty and most equal Comrade. That would suggest I was involved in some sort of actual campaign to win this award. Instead of the ever so remote possibility that it would justly be awarded to me just based on my proggie merits and my quiet toiling in the background for the greater good, why just look at the quiet work that I've done about protecting workers safety above.

And as you are also well aware a campaign would not be complete if there were not smears and innuendos to slime the leading candidate. It is obvious that I have not engaged in such actions and have been a true model above board and honest prog in assisting you on this thread, just a good old regular Joe of the people “Honest Snoogs” is what they call me. Just for example you cannot point to one instance were I even mentioned that Pinkie asked for technical advice from the People's Navy Tech support folks on why she couldn't get her blank DVD's to record Glen Becks program for playback later.

Frau!

Good to…..errr….See you and throwing and showing your considerable rustic charms into the ring. A stellar prog such as your self deserves to be considered!!!! Why with that picture you posted I promise that glass ceiling is going to develop a heck of lot more cracks that it had before.

User avatar
Krasnodar, if it weren't for your big mouth, one might swear you have a sign that says, "Pinkie, please hit me with your shovel" taped to your back.

WHACK!!!

Now, to these boxes of extra ballots. My chauffeur, Pedro, opened the trunk of my Pink Cadillac to make sure we had space, if needed, to give a ride to the Supervisor of Elections. He found the boxes in the trunk, and I don't know how they got there, but rest assured I've scolded everyone on my staff about using my trunk for something other than space to give certain people rides when necessary. I'm just glad we found them in time to get them counted, because I'd absolutely hate to see anyone disenfranchised or denied their vote.

In the meantime, the army of red-headscarfed union workers you see swarming all about are non-partisan grass roots, boots-on-the-ground, shovel-ready members of Organizing For Pinkie, which is better known outside the campaign season as Organizing For the Party.

Their job is to make democracy work by registering as many people as possible to vote as many times as possible for me and/or my shovel using the latest in communications techology, to wit, the wielding (or "yielding" as Krasnodar might say--poor pitiful prole doesn't know that's what the person on the other end of the shovel does) of shovels. They will also ensure that every vote is counted, and if nececessary, recounted and counted again using every possible formula and configuration, until we achieve the outcome that we've assured the masses they want.

I only want to make sure that everyone gets to vote, that every vote gets counted, and no Party-approved perpetual victim groups get disenfranchised.

By the way, ironic as it seems, now that Pedro has made space in the trunk, since we found those boxes the Supervisor of Elections won't need a ride, after all.

Commissarka Pinkie

Sorry to hear about your misfortune and Pedro seems to now have a lot of paperwork to fill-out. I would be happy to lend him a pencil free of charge to help him with the forms.

Loyal Alfred, I have tried and retried again to crack into the value and add my name without success... am working on doing just that. Surely it was just an oversight and I am not blaming dear Leninka for screwing up. I am so busy dong Obama's business I hardly have time for such trifles, in any case.

(dear Leninka, if you have not received my personal generous donation to your cause, please let me know. I do have a wee more in reserve. Obama praise redistribution!)

Wielding, not yielding. Got it.

Pinkie.....I can attribute that mistake to simple forgetfulness, time of day or the fact that I received my liberal arts degree from the on-line People's University at Podunk.

And after that last WHACK, I'm quite sure you've been working on your backhand.

Public Health Advisory......you'd better call off your " Red Scarfs "......I still have some missing pieces of plutonium lying around the yard somewhere. Nothing says "RAD" like plutonium !

If you see the good Commodore S.W., tell him that the #2 reactor on-board his lead attack sub, " The Nefarious Mermaid ", will continue to leak until he can come up with that additional twenty bucks ( on top of the five-spot he already owes me from that run to Burger King ) to get a few more rolls of Duck Tape from Store #86, so I can fix it, or at least slow it down a little......

Always have been, always will be.....

Oh Frau, I finished that campaign poster you wanted. I also found a bunch of blank absentee ballots that you printed in the copy machine. I'll leave it all on your desk right next to that list of necro proxy voters you compiled. I'll get the ACORN elves busy forging signatures.

(Tee hee, won't Snoogie and Pinkie be surprised)

Most loyal and devoted glorious Prog!, yes, I found the ballots andpaid off thanked the ACORN elves. I am sure they will be a wee bit surprised but we can not go against the will of the peoples, can we!

Dear Krasnodar, I am thinking you need to make your thinking more clear. Hello? It's the Frau here (and you don't' need any more denouncements do you.)

Now, here is a question for all of you vying for the title: which of you cares the most?

Do you care so much about the children, like Comrade Peloski that you will do everything in your power to make sure they all have free condoms in all schools?

Do you care about union members so much that you would be willing to confiscate a portion of the stock of a losing car company and hand it over to a foreign corporation like Fiat, thus leaving pensioners in Indiana in the lurch?

Do you care about the planet so much that it doesn't bother you that thousands of workers in Louisiana will be hard put to find jobs as a result of a moratorium on drilling in the Gulf?

This is the kind of caring that I'm talking about. Now, Commodore Snoogie Woogums, I noticed you mentioned all of your volunteer activities and so far, this puts you in the lead, at least in the caring department, however, I wanted to give Pinkie and Fraulein a chance to show just how much they care.

Here, Leninka. Allow me to use my shovel as leverage to lift up that rock you've obviously been living under since forever, or you'd already know that no one cares as much as I do!

Ever since I came to the Cube, all I've ever done is raise awareness of how much I care. I perched on the ledge for peace for 62 days--longer than anyone else here--simply because I care more than they do.

Don't even bother with the Fraulein. Have any of you comrades ever wondered why you've never seen my boobs, yet you always see hers? It's because my bosom is covered with Awareness Ribbons! Ribbons that Raise Awareness of how much I care! That I have so many of them, while she flaunts naught but cleavage, only shows--nay, proves--that I care more than she does.

And then there are my wristbands that serve as further proof of how much I care. Believe it or not, I am actually as sleeveless as Michelle. You just can't see my arms because of the awareness wristbands I wear to call attention to how much I care. Givestrong, Thisstrong, Thatstrong, Whateverstrong, I have wristbands and ribbons for every issue that matters.

And believe me--ask anyone--I can make an issue out of anything. Indeed, I can make an issue out of something that no one else cares about, which you must admit, puts me far ahead of anyone.

If the rest of you care even a fraction as much as I do, you'll cast your vote for Pinkie.

I did. Because I care.

As Loyal Progressives, in casting our votes, it's wise to remember the true meaning of "CARE" best exemplified by the Caring Actions by Caring Progressives who really, really CARE about anything-- hunger, deprivation, shortness of breath, tooth decay, athelete's foot, jock-itch, etc.:

Contriving Affectations Rhetoricalizing Emphathy™

This reminds all good Progressives that to CARE obviates the need to act effectively in order to succeed and thus guarantees everyone's success in the noble, egalitarian mission to CARE.

One of the most Progressively Satisfying aspects of undertaking to CARE is that in order to succeed in doing so, one need not give one's own food to the hungry, or give one's own Crackberry to a Cell-Phone-Deprived Person, or scratch a sufferer's jock-itch.

Thus, after this contest is over, I think we need to establish an annual "CARE" contest in which we award The Peoples Cube CARE Trophy.

Have to admit it is pretty hard to beat Pinkie in the caring department. I know my sailors sure appreciate her giving and caring nature, she's always right there when the fleet comes in to port to entertain the boys after being out to sea for awhile.

Oh looky here! I see the latest unbiased poll results have just been released.

Question: If you had the choice between two whiny females and a fine upstanding male progressive to give a prestigious award to, who would you pick?

Whiny Females: 0.000008%

Fine upstanding male progressive: 143%

Interesting results!

Commodore Snoogie Woogums, in all fairness and equality. When you care enough to propagate a political/social mindset that has resulted in the deaths of countless millions for the benefit of the greater good, give me a call.

Not only does she care, Pinkie is Making A Difference™. How many Comrades have been Making A Difference™ lately? I ask you Comrades, are you Making A Difference™ or Part Of The Problem™?

I credit Pinkie's enormous heart to her high cholesterol diet. But it's not what's in one person's congested heart or clogged arteries that counts. Rather, it's what's in a person's mind. Pinkie is very thoughtful and concerned and all concerned thinking people support her 110% (if they know what's good for them).

As for Snoogie, the fact that he's parked a carrier battle group just off shore and in view of my sea side villa would cause me to vote for him, if only to put a stop to those noisy, window shattering flyovers from his carrier based jets.

Which leaves the Frau, who I have the "good fortune" to share a cubicle with here at Party HQ which gives her the advantage of being in a position to expose my less than stellar work habits and the fact that I've been pilfering office supplies.

Decisions, decisions...This is why I became a Prog, so I wouldn't have to make decisions. Someone please, tell me how to vote my conscience.

I have personally delivered to and had "show me" exhibitions for all the wee little children from daycare on up, on the good usage of condominiums . . . condoms. I have done this delightful activity since 1981 - all FREE VOLUNTEERISM, I might add. This is what I am not VOLUNTEERING with ACORN and SEIU to protest and beat the reichwinger haters.
I am a One-ply Crow support and VOLUNTEER in demanding greedy paper users, reuse their usage!
I VOLUNTEER my time to protest and 'fix' gasoline pumps. People must stop using this destructive production even if we have to blow them all up!
I "council" the much olders into serious consideration on ending life-supporting support systems and "doing the right thing" We are NOT DEATH PANELS.
I DO VOLUNTEERISM IN N.O. every other weekend to demand more than fair share for Bush's Katerina Damage Respond and Using OPM's. We build houses and threaten the greedy capitalism.

oh my my, there is so much more but I must be off to the Peoples Business ™ and help the middle class, abused, under appreciate and starving children. I have a trunk load of condoms that must be distributed before recess!

Oh my! Such caring progressives we have here at the Cube.

Comrade Pinkie,

Do those ribbons weigh on your chest any? If so, you might be eligible for a ribbon reduction surgery. Surely, whenever you get into your Prius, I dare say, you are inadvertently honking your horn, and this, of course, is causing unnecessary noise pollution.

Comrade Fraulein,

I had no idea you were advising useless old proles to kick the bucket sooner than later. Now, this is commendable. I can imagine what a chore that is. I here that oldsters are getting STD's at an alarming rate. Perhaps you can council them to have more orgies, and speed up the process while they are having fun.

Comrade Snoogie,

May I offer you some advice? Perhaps you need a "Gender Lawyer." (this is the kind of lawyer in Sweden representing the victims of Julian Assange) Comrade KOOK, would you be up to defending Snoogie? He is up against two females, and that's two to one, and it's just not fair.

I nominate Rep. Alan Grayson from Florida. He'll be out of work at the end of the month and I think he could use our support.


Grayson said the wealthiest could use the money to buy a 2011 Mercedes-Benz E-Class sedan, once a year, every year for the next decade. Or they could buy a Hermes "Birkin" handbag every year or a bottle of 1787 Chateau d'Yquem wine.

"Here's something else they can do," Grayson said, showing the next poster. "They can buy 20,000 jars of their favorite mustard, Grey Poupon. Twenty thousand jars. That's certainly enough for them, their family, their friends, even a few poor people.

Dear Comrade Leninka,

That would be up to Snoogie, but there are certain thing he's entitled to know before deciding. First, I've only won one argument with my wife during the last 40 years, and that was when she says I persuaded her she was right and I was wrong.

Also, regarding my private practice-- it's so private that no one knows about it (except, of course, a few Party Officials with Ultra High Eyes-Only Security Clearance).

Finally, I am currently in a swamp full of alligators, so I might not be able to appear at all docket calls. But occasionally I get to step out of the swamp and onto the shore just for a brief smoke break and/or laptop break (but, alas, never a lapdancing break).

Maybe my own defense counsel -- Grigori, E.R -- (in my Show Trial) is available to join in the defense. At least that would even the odds assuming, of course, that you or another prestigeous member of the Politburo will be assisting Frau and Pinkie.

Gotta go-- one of my clients just lost a leg to one of the alligators.

P.S. Having read the "gender lawyer" news report you linked, and also remembering my recollection of the top-secret sermon that one of the original seven astronauts preached to another about "wicks," I now understand why Assange titled his venture "WikiLeaks."

Comrades,

Rest assured I am a total supporter of all progressive wommins issues and have worked hard all my life to finally destroy all the old cheesy stereotypes that wommins have had to endure in the past. I have nothing but total respect for the female of the species and will not tolerate demeaning sexist remarks or snide “Hey Baby” like comments toward them. As a matter of fact I take the position that women are in some areas much superior to the male of the species!

Take just for example ironing. I just can't seem to ever get those creases right in my uniform but toss it to a woman along with the rest of laundry and viola, ironed creases that you cut butter on. And I'm not even going to mention how good they are in the kitchen when it comes to cooking a good old home cooked meal and doing the dishes afterwards.
So let's us not let gender stereotypes even play a part here in the decision to cast a vote for the bestiest Progressive of the year.

Instead let ones minority victim status in true proggie fashion be considered instead of gender! Then you'll know that casting your vote for the least most incompetent candidate was not wasted as casting your ballot will assuage your horrid guilt and finally atone for what your long ago ancestor Uncle Freddie did to those poor other unfortunates 6 generations back. And who would have guessed, but I'm 0.0000023% Native American Indian on my second cousins aunt side and therefore deserve tons of monetary compensation and Givernment freebies. So how about just saying “Geronimo” and throwing your vote behind “Honest Snoogs” instead of toward one of these two proggie Anglo-Saxon European descended hot cuties of white slavery owning, native American land stealing hot chickyness.

It is sounding like you are demanding a recount? And I am wondering if the Cube has reentered 2008 . . . are we counting hanging clicks? Paused clicked? Double clicking??
There should be a through investigation before any loyal nominee is crowed given the Title, just for the clear clarification of the matter, you understand. I believe Comarde Algore is flying driving over to make sure all is done upstandingly. cough
