Getting a bit of a late start today, as our ISP crashed and my internet connection has been down since about 3:00 AM. It has just come back up, and so it's now time to get down to business and name
The Left-Cheek Ass Clown
for
December, 2015
And the award is presented to ...
John Edward Parsley
Although it is tempting to give the award to any or all of the hyperbolically fearmongering GOP presidential candidates, there are other worthy awardees out there as well, among them the temperamental Mr Parsley.
Mr Parsley, 62, was angry over a billing dispute with the manager of a hotel in Alva, Oklahoma. Angered because his credit cards were declined, he threatened to drive his truck through the hotel lobby ... and did so. No one was seriously hurt, and Mr Parsley was arrested, charged with assault and malicious injury to property, and remains in jail. According to the police report of the incident, when police asked him why he thought driving his truck into the hotel was a good idea, Parsley told police that "they thought he was bluffing, and he proved he wasn't." according to the report.
For his unique, but stupid way of handling a dispute, Mr John Edward Parsley is named our Left Cheek Ass Clown for December, 2015. I expect, however, that most of the current GOP presidential candidates, eager to show how tough they are with foreign bad guys, would be willing to offer him a job as Secretary of either State or Defense.
Don't forget that the balloting is underway for Ass Clown of the Year. Donald Trump still has a commanding lead, but there's still plenty of time to cast your votes for other candidates if you wish. Remember that Chicago Rules apply, so be sure you, your pets, your friends and relatives (living and dead) have the opportunity to make their voices heard. Balloting closes at 11:59 PM on December 31st, so get those votes in now!

ReplyDeleteA worthy winner. It's nice to remember the lesser known ass clowns. They deserve derision as well.
