Filed in National by on November 22, 2010 1 Comment

Numerous winners today, so I’ll get right to it. First winner, that lard ass of a NJ governor Chris Christie, for demanding that the Delaware River and Bay Authority stop letting employees and retirees get free tolls if they use EZ Pass when crossing the Delaware Memorial Bridge.

Here’s another one where I’m not sure whether to give the guy the asshat award or a chutzpah award. Joe Miller (Teabag-AK), claims that the minimum wage is unconstitutional. I guess Linda McMahon body-slammed him to say this. Employees in the U.S. should not be provided a federal guarantee of minimum wage, Alaska Senate candidate […]
